This is why you don’t talk trash to Kobe Bryant

From Kobe’s Basketball Academy tonight, Kobe accepted the challenge of a one-on-one game with a trash-talking-happy camper.
Earlier in the day, when we were filming the courts with Kobe roaming them watching his campers, the camper told Kobe he’d “need lotion for his feet when he was done.” Kobe, beaming at his young camper, responded with, “I’ve got a long list of people like you.” The trash talking continued on in a fun, competitive way; both smiling at each other.
When it was almost time for the one on one game, Kobe told the kid he could shoot for outs and told him he’d better make it or it’s game over for him.
Kobe backed him down point after point; telling him he wouldn’t take it easy on him as promised earlier in the week when he accepted the camper’s challenge.
At the end of it, Kobe won 5-0 and grabbed the mic to ask him what the kid had learned. The courageous camper responded with, “You won’t be able to win at Lebron’s camp!”
Kobe, laughing, responded back with: “I also won’t get dunked on in my own camp.”

Really though, Kobe and probably Dwayne Wade are the best bball players in the NBA. Lebron is also in that elite group as well, but he relies more on the fact that he's just a physical specimen part mutant because of his size and strength, makes it hard for others at his position to guard him, but he's not the best pure NBA player by any means.
Kinda like Brock Lesnar in the UFC. He's surely not the best heavyweight fighter in MMA or UFC for that matter, but his size, speed, strength and wrestling background makes it extremely hard for others to take him on. Once he's on top of you, you're pretty much screwed.
Speaking of UFC fight, Sat 7/11 is going to be awesome.
