I understand why Kobe gets that rep, I respect his game, but I don’t know why MJ is known as a “killer” when LeBron isn’t. MJ has 0 career ejections, 52 career techs, and 2 career flagrants. Meanwhile, LeBron as 2 career ejections, 90 career techs, and 8 career flagrants. He had a career high of 10 techs in one season, whereas MJ at his best only had 5. LeBron is much more dangerous on the court than MJ ever was, and is more likely to bite when provoked. MJ just barked, and had to recruit guys like Rodman to do his biting for him. LeBron did his own biting when pushed far enough, which is rare since he’s a scarier dog anyways.

Kobe was a true killer though. Bro was out for blood every night. He has 7 career ejections, 196 techs, and 9 flagrants.

    Being ‘Scary’ is better is just stupid narrative. Created by SAS and Skip Bayless. Ask every eastern conference teams if they were scared of lebron or not. Also, players being scared of other man is crazy glazing. Ever heard of all time great saying they were scared of MJ or Kobe?
