I just saw a report that talked about this interview, and spoke about how Pierce had said LeBron was better than Kobe at driving to the basket, but he didn't. He said that Kobe finesses his way around you, but that LeBron just goes right through you. He wasn't saying one was better than the other, or that one was easier to defend than the other, he was just comparing the two players' styles, and pointing out how physical LB is. Amazing how the media loves to twist things into confrontations or slander.
