Kobe Bryant used to be an opponent for James, and then he gradually became a goal he could pursue, and finally he became a friend who pursued his basketball dream with himself.

Kobe Bryant and James used to be members of two teams. They are all very powerful. When they met on the court, they were rivals because they both wanted to win points for their teams. They tried their best to sweat on the court, just to fulfill their dreams. At that time, they only thought each other was a respectable opponent.

After a long time, Kobe chose to retire. Kobe chose to retire, on the one hand, because he has achieved his goal, because he has surpassed Jordan in the total score of his personal career, and on the other hand, because his physical condition no longer supports his continued pursuit on this road. From that moment on, James and Kobe were no longer rivals.

Because James is also a favorite player of many people, he should want to catch up with Kobe, or he also wants to surpass Kobe. Of course, until James joined the Lakers, and before that, Kobe also played for this team, so by this time they had become people in the same boat.

Of course, Kobe actually appreciates James very much, because there is always something that top players appreciate each other, especially because both of them have the same dream of loving basketball and the same passion to fight forward. I think they should be people who can understand each other's voices without words. So from then on, James continued to play for Kobe's team, and he also wanted to win the championship for the Lakers. This is also their dream, so they are already on the same front at this time.
