Bron and Jordan never do that. Do the Cavs sometimes stand around and watch Bron, yes, but, if Lebron can't get his shot people will move to their spot, and Bron will pass. Kobe on the other hand, shooting everything, don't care if people open or not. Focus, intensity, and hunger isn't just about scoring, it's about being intuned with the GAME. Does it require some form of selfishness, yes, but not to where your teammates know they are not getting the ball cause they're playing with a @$@@%##. See Jordan passing the ball to Paxson, Kerr, Armstrong, Winnington. See Lebron to Jones, Marshall, Williams, Flip. See Kobe to____________________________. I'll take Mike and Bron any day over that selfish gun, that's why he'll never win being the centerpiece.
