Through the generations there have been many great athletes who have played in the NBA such as: Bill Russell who is considered to be one of the all-time great Boston Celtics. That is best known for winning eleven straight NBA championship, but he is not considered to be the greatest player due to the fact that during the time he played he didn’t receive the amount of money many people believe he deserved. Players like Allen Iverson who is best known for being one of the most versatile point guards in NBA history, but he is also not considered to be the greatest athlete in NBA history because he never won an NBA championship. Lastly Tim Duncan the power forward for the San Antonio Spurs who has won five NBA championships as well has made millions of dollars over his 17 career in the NBA, but he is also not considered to be the greatest NBA because Tim Duncan is looked…
Shoot! And the winning shot is scored by...Kobe Bryant! Kobe Bryant has done amazing things, from helping his high school basketball team win their first state title in years, to winning a gold medal at the 2008 Olympics. Compared to Michael Jordan, I believe that Kobe Bryant is the superior athlete, because of his amazing scoring skills, his awesome achievements and his individual…
LeBron James or Michael Jordan the greatest basketball player of all time? That is the question that is constantly being thrown around in the media and in turn, to all of us here at home. For me the answer is quite simple, and I will tell you why. Jordan (MJ) is “the best,” nd LeBron is the second best, or is he? MJ won six rings and LeBron James won just one. Does that make MJ better or not? MJ played in the Bulls and LeBron played with Calves, then moved to the Heat. I like MJ because he was so good and never really showed off, he was selfless. I don’t like LeBron because he shows off too much and plays dirty. MJ was a team player and LeBron is ball hog. I know the NBA is way different now, considering that a lot of the NBA players are stronger. Well this evaluation can determent by the championships, skill, popularity, who had the better team. Maybe you can say MJ is better in the 4th quarter than LeBron or other way around. Other differences between MJ and LeBron could be that, Jordan had three seasons of playing college basketball with great players and a great coach. MJ won an NCAA championship and would then later learn how to lose in the same NCAA tournament. He understood how to win with great players and how to play with role players and make them better. Because of this, LeBron will never have the leadership ability of MJ. LeBron could not teach his teammates in Cleveland how to be better and to be a champion, he had never been there. But you can say that does not really matter because skill matters more than leadership. But does that really matter? So what’s more important “How their stats looked in their first year winning a championship” or “How they perform?”…

Kobe Bryant and Lebron James have had some enormous success in their careers in the basketball world, but as we compare the two to figure out which player you would want on your team the differences are there. When it comes down to the most valuable player in the league (MVP) which is by far the biggest individual accolade a player can receive Lebron James takes the cake on this one. Lebron James has won the MVP four times whereas Kobe Bryant has won this award twice. Both players have also been elected to numerous all star games, where Kobe has been elected to eighteen all star games in his twenty year NBA career setting a record. Lebron James has been elected to twelve all star games, where he will try to catch or surpass Kobe Bryant in the years to come if he plays as long as Kobe Bryant played. Kobe Bryant also takes the cake when it comes to scoring titles, all NBA first team selections, all NBA defensive teams. Although the money does not play a major role into deciding which players legacy is better, it tells us a lot about their individual brand. Kobe Bryant’s estate and net worth is greater than that of Lebron James coming in at 320 million dollars, whereas Lebron James is worth 267 million dollars. Both players are set for life, both being involved in investing their money…

The school-to-prison pipeline plagues schools and youth across the country, specifically targeting minority and disabled students in urban areas. Due to policies employed in schools across the United States, students are channeled directly from the school system into the criminal justice system. Many of these schools have metal detectors, law enforcement officers in the buildings and intense zero-tolerance policies that treat minor and major infractions with extreme severity. Authorities and educators have relied heavily on suspensions, expulsions, and outside law enforcement to solve the behavior and disciplinary issues in the classroom.…
