the best basketball players in the world. He has achieved many things that people never thought anyone could achieve. Lebron has done it all, he has won championship rings, finals MVP, and also the league MVP four times.

The (2-8) Los Angeles Lakers are in the valley of the sun, Phoenix, Arizona, to battle the (5-4) Suns. The Lakers, led by an all-around effort by Kobe Bryant, Jordan Clarkson and a defense that held the Detroit Pistons to 37-percent shooting from the field helped the purple and gold notch their second win of the season and first home win of the 2015-16 season.

You can’t judge how much they make by using people like Kobe Bryant as an example. Others argue that they will most…
