This is about money, folks, and stroking the LeBron/Kobe machine for all it's worth ... it has nothing to do with objectivity or fairness, and the media is just part of the same machine. Bird, Magic, Pippen, Havlicek, Malone, Kareem, West, Drexler, Hornacek, and on and on, ALL better passers than LBJ. All they prove by making such statements is how subjective and monetarily motivated they are ... or how ignorant.
