I think LeBron is the best player in the world, as far as overall in his career and what he's doing for this league on and off the court.
Me, growing up, I was a Kobe fan, Kobe fanatic, and just getting, just being able to just wear his shoes, it's my favorite shoe to play in.
I've been working hard to be one of the focal points in the NBA, one of the top guys.
Kobe can play in any league.
I don't want to see Kobe Bryant ever leave. If he was 100 years old and still playing, I'd be happy.
In 1989-90 I became one of the group known as the Jordanaires, a.k.a. the Bulls. From the day I arrived in Chicago, I knew what everyone else on the team did: Michael Jordan was a phenomenal talent.
LeBron James - I'm such a big basketball fan, and to be in his body for a day and be able to just dunk at will, have that level of court awareness and size, oh my goodness, that would be a treat.
I'm a huge LeBron James fan. I love The Heat. He's an incredible basketball player.
Here I am, playing with Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, Jason Kidd is my coach, I'm in Brooklyn, New York, they lobbied for me to be here... Regardless of my circumstances, I'm here.
Huge Kobe fan growing up. My dog's name is Kobe.
Michael Jordan was a cultural icon that everybody on the playground wanted to be. The Bulls dynasty was a huge part of my childhood and it was the peak of my basketball interest as a kid.
Kobe Bryant is the most talented player in the game today; he could do anything.
I'm going to be the Will Smith of the NBA.
I am used to the hype because I played in the NBA.
Every since I started playing basketball, I wanted to be just like Kobe. To get to see him play in person, and to meet him, was just a dream come true.
When I got traded to the Lakers in '97, Kobe Bryant was just a rookie.
In my head, I'm a big Kobe fan.
My favorite player is Carmelo; that's just a guy I've been rocking with since he was at Syracuse. I've always been a big fan of Melo.
I was in Charlotte, N.C., when they launched the NBA team there, the Charlotte Hornets. And the first guy to roll into town was Carolina native Michael Jordan.
Some of us might not understand why LeBron James is the way he is, but fortunately he found his great craft in life.
You knew LeBron James was going to be LeBron James when he was a sophomore.
I'm from Denver, and basketball there isn't near what it is out in Chicago or Detroit or L.A. There weren't that many great players to come out of the area; I was the best player in high school. I was Player of the Year four straight years for the state. As a freshman, I was State Player of the Year; I was Mr. Everything, so I was a phenom.
I love Kobe Bryant, was a Lakers fan for sure.
I want people to say that an African basketball player is the best player in the whole world.
Carmelo Anthony is one of the best players in the NBA.
