LeBron James and Kobe Bryant, the bombshell announcement arrives

General Manager of the Los Angeles Lakers talked about what his former client Kobe Bryant, of whom he was an agent, and the star of the yellow-violet LeBron James have in common: "They are both maniacs of the game of basketball and neither of them was interested in scoring, but only in winning the titles. From that point of view they are very similar " Rob Pelinka is one of the few people who can s

peak for direct acquaintance with both Kobe Bryant and LeBron James. He was an agent and friend of the former for nearly two decades, assisting him throughout his career and continuing to have a very close relationship. However, since 2017 he has also become one of the most important members of the Los Angeles Lakers management, taking full control after the departure of Magic Johnson. For this he also had a privileged vision of another great game like LeBron James, and between the two legends he found a particular similarity: "The thing that is clear about both of them is that they are maniacs of the game of basketball" said Pelinka podcast by ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski. "And what's interesting is that neither of them was satisfied or had the goal of scoring. The only thing that interests him is winning the title. For them it means everything and they do everything to achieve that goal, they are maniacs ". With what they both have achieved in their careers, both individually and as a team, there is no doubt that their approach to basketball made the difference.
