Just Embrace the Greatness of LeBron James

To end, I just want to talk directly to these Lakers fans.

I know you love Kobe Bryant. I do, and all of the writers here at Lake Show Life also love him. But don’t be oblivious and close-minded. LeBron is better than Kobe and he’s been better than Kobe for a while now.

LeBron winning championships with the Lakers isn’t going to diminish Kobe’s legacy. Kobe will still be considered a better Laker than LeBron. He will also still be considered one of the best guards to ever play the game.

So loosen up and enjoy the idea of possibly the best basketball player ever coming to the Lakers. It’d be another pillar of Lakers’ excellence and it would take these Lakers to new heights early in their careers.

Let’s be real, all we want as Lakers fans are championships. I’d say LeBron helps our chances.
