Kobe VS LBJ

        There are so many sports stars in the world, they have an amazing body quality and excellent skills. Thousands of them are trying to get into the NBA every year, but only few of them can achieve it. Obviously, It is so hard to be a player in the NBA, let alone to be a super star inside. However, Lebron James and Kobe Bryant are few of people can get into the NBA when they are just 18-year-old. Team managers found their talent and decided to select them when they were very young. they attracted worldwide attention when they were studying in senior high school or even younger. So, what are the differences of them and to be a prodigy of basketball is good or bad to them?
        They had focused by people and had showed their talent before they were adults. Both of them were selected into the first team of high school in their generation. Kobe's average record was 31.1 points, 10.4 rebounds and 5.2 assists. In addition, he broke the score record that had been kept by Wilt Chamberlain for many years. The press were much more crazy about Lebron. ESPN indeed live broadcasted his high school final game that was the first time and the last time in the American history.
        Even they were so famous before they attended but they still had different experiences. Kobe was not so valued and did not have too much time to show his talent on the court at first. He had waited for almost five years to became the NBA super star. Lebron was totally opposite, he had got a seven-year contract and the total value was 90 million dollars from NIKE when he was just selected by Cleveland Cavaliers. He showed his amazing basketball talents and shocked everyone who was interested in the NBA. He has been a super star since his first year.
        Their personalities are also different. Kobe is more arrogant and does not trust teammates too much. In this way, he likes to dominate games by scores. No matter, how many defenders are trying to stop him when he is shooting. He always tries his best to shoot these tough balls by himself instead of passing to his teammate who has a better chance. Lebron dominates games by another way, he tries to help his team to win in every ways, such as shoot, pass and grab rebounds, moreover he always to defense the best player in the opposing team. He is an all-round basketball players and he likes to trust teammates on the court.

        Although they are in different generations, but they actually are typical players in the NBA recently. Both of them had helped their team to win the NBA champion and were selected as the most valuable player of the year. They represent two different ways to takeover games and attract more people to see the NBA.
