NBA players shine on the court, but it's not easy to win the admiration of their opponents. Recently, a high-profile rising star player admitted on a live show that he is convinced of three legendary players: Westbrook, James and Kobe. He said that Westbrook was like his big brother and gave him a lot of valuable advice and guidance, while Kobe Bryant and James made him deeply admire. In this regard, we can't help but wonder: what is it that makes this young player respect these three NBA legends so much?
In Westbrook, Morant sees a big brother presence, not only because his style of play is similar to that of his youth, but also because of Westbrook's leadership on the court and countless amazing performances. Westbrook is known as the "all-time triple-double king", and his outstanding performance and leadership skills have convinced Morant. In Westbrook's eyes, Morant may have seen his own shadow, and this resonance has led to a deep friendship between the two. And when it comes to Kobe, Morant's evaluation of him is equally impressive. He believes that Kobe Bryant didn't just rely on Phil Jackson's triangular offensive system and the Lakers' strong roster to succeed.
Bryant's performance before Phil Jackson's arrival was up and down, but after working with a Zen master, his integration with the team reached new heights. Kobe Bryant's choice and determination were also admirable, and despite the idea of leaving the team to join the Bulls, he ultimately chose to stay with the Lakers and eventually achieved brilliant results. This perseverance and fighting spirit is undoubtedly admired by Morant. For James, Morant also expressed his opinion. He pointed out that in the team sport of basketball, cooperation and tacit understanding between players are crucial. James' "huddle" behavior has been criticized, but Morant believes that both Kobe Bryant and James know the importance of teamwork and work hard for it.
Even if Bryant had the support of his All-NBA teammates for 13 seasons in his career, and James only enjoyed such treatment in five seasons, it doesn't quite say who has better teammates or who is stronger. On the pitch, the competition of data is important, but what is more important is the chemistry and team spirit between the players. All in all, the youngster's admiration for Westbrook, Kobe Bryant, and James is because he sees more in them. He saw leadership, tenacity, teamwork and hard work. This also reminds us that on the basketball court, it is not only a competition of technology and data, but also a contest of spirit and attitude.
It is this kind of admiration and learning that allows us to see more possibilities in this young player, and also makes us look forward to his future development and achievements. Two of the biggest stars in the basketball world, Kobe Bryant and James, have a unique charisma, showing extraordinary leadership qualities and outstanding performances on the court. Whether it was Kobe Bryant who relied on his chemistry and trust with his teammates to win games, or James's ability to excel wherever he was, they became an integral part of basketball history. There is no standard answer to the question of who is stronger, because everyone has their favorite basketball hero in their hearts. It is important to respect their hard work and dedication, as well as their contribution to the sport of basketball.
However, Morant's opinion on the legend in basketball history has caused some controversy. Although he doesn't mention Jordan, he prefers to honor the legends he has witnessed rather than feel their greatness through video. Such an attitude has led to reflection on history and reality, and it has also made people wonder how the great players in the history of basketball should be remembered and viewed
