LeBron was 19 in 04 Olympics and played like 6-7 mpg max. In game they lost to Argentina I think he played 2-3 mins. Larry brown barely played him or Melo at all. It’s comedy to me ppl try to put that on LeBron when Duncan, AI, and others are the ones who played a ton.

4 am is when Classical Indian singers practice scales etc. The cerebrum is not fully awake yet, but the cerebellum can be very awake. The cerebellum is where you store motor programs, repetitive physical tasks you can do on auto-pilot. Good for singers and hoopers. Humor however requires the cerebrum...Lebron must have had a good sleep routine too. Great to hear this story of greatness getting passed on.

@boblove6865 Год назад

Part of Kobes game was to keep himself on a pedestal. He needed to project that Mamba mentality and it intimidated and earned respect and fear. He was a in my eyes a bigger competitor than MJ. He was deliberate and used even the smallest things as a tool. His demeanor was just part of that arsenal. I think Kobe showed his true self that last season and after he left the game. Only because he wouldn't/couldn't give up any advantage he had. Him being human during the Olympics was a rare thing to see.❤ The Goat!

I think it was easy for Kobe to open himself up within a competitive environment cause he respected the work ethic of lebron James ect. Shaq was very playful like Lebron but he never put in the extra work to reach his fullest potential as basketball player. He relied too much on just size and strength.

@robertofranciscor.beltran5588 Год назад

Kobe was just more secure in his place in the game at that time. He knew he was the best and the other guys knew it too. When he first came in to the league with the Lakers, there was an insecurity there since he was a lot younger than everyone else and just couldn't fit in with the vets like Shaq at that time.

@@robertofranciscor.beltran5588 I respectfully disagree. Kobe himself has expressed his experience as a kid growing up in Italy how he felt different from the other kids so he spent a lot of time to whom self. So Kobe was very acceptance to not fitting in with everyone else @ a early age.
