LeBron James is over in London for a Nike promo. A reporter asked him who he thought would win in a game of one-on-one between James and Kobe Bryant.
I wonder if the two have ever actually played a game of one on one. Maybe at the end of practice during the Olympic sessions in Las Vegas a few years back? Probably not though, if it had happened, someone would’ve told the story of it by now.
Interesting thing about this is that LeBron says he’s a team guy at heart. Ironically, that is exactly the reason that Kobe used to say why he’d beat LeBron EASILY. Kobe said the one on one game is his “thing” whereas LeBron is more Magic Johnson.
