@@danieljandreas8392 what did Kobe better? Besides from punching Mike Bibby in the Playoffs and getting the call because of rigged games? Rings dont count if you win them in LA. All the advanced stats say that Harden is much better. Kobe was never even close to being the best player in the NBA. In the beginning (1996) Jordan, Puppen, Hakeem and Malone were the best, than Shaq and Duncan, Nowitzki in the mid 2000s and than lebron. He should have 0 mvps and zero defensiv all-nba First Team selections. His defensiv bpm shows that he was never a good defender. In his best years only slightly above average. Not even better than harden. So what was Kobe so good at?

For real. I rewatched that Toronto game where he scored 81 and I saw him playing hard defense, full effort type stuff. I looked back to see how many points he had at that point - 79. I've heard people cutting LeBron some slack for not playing hard defense because (paraphrasing multiple people's attitude/statements) "the offense is built around him and when you have to score 30 a game you gotta take it a little easy on the other side." Kobe going all out on defense when he already has 79 points but it's acceptable for LeBron to not play that much defense in a must-win game because he scored 25, gtfo. Kobe plays harder defense when he has 79 than LeBron does when he has 19 to the point that in a must-win game Kuzma has to literally shove his ass and force him to play D. As a Laker fan I don't care if LeBron gets burnt on D but ffs at least try, especially if you want to be in there with the great Lakers like Kobe, Kareem, Magic, etc and many people already assume that you're just here for Hollywood; put in that Kobe effort then you can have your murals and goat discussions and people won't be shouting "We want Kobe" during free-throws

So you overrated him. I don't think he can do that in front of Kawahi or Durant. Let's be clear. The only two differences in today's game is just that there are more three-point shooting and there is usually only on big men on court. However, there are still many great defensive team and perimeter defender. I don't think Kobe will easily score 40 points above great defenders such as Draymond, Kawahi, Siekem, Paul George and so on. As to defend, there are so many mismatches now, I don't think he can guard bigger players such as Gainnis, Durant, George. What I don't like Kobe's fans ate that they always only talk about Kobe's great. They talk about Kobe scores 81points, 3 consecutive games scoring over 60points. Sure, that is impressive. However, in Kobe's career. He is just a mediocre average25 points player with only 45%of shooting. So if he has so many great shooting games, you can imagine, he must has even more bad games. Keep in mind, he never shoots over 47% in his career. There are tons of players who shoot better than him in his era, averages more points than him but been said not a great scorer as Kobe.
@andrewliu1115 жыл бұрын
@@nicholas1053 Nowadays game, you really need more energy on offense than before. Today's game are faster than before. The opponent's size are smaller in the rim but bigger on perimeter so I say LeBron really needs more energy than Kobe on offense. And he does carry more offensive workloads and does more than Kobe. He averages more points, more assists than Kobe. And I don't really like you compare prime Kobe Bryant to the 15th and 16th season, the 33,34years old LeBron. At the age of 34, kobe is also not playing very good defense too though I admit he might not be that passive as LeBron. But I do believe prime LeBron, Miami LeBron is better defensively than Kobe. Remember he knockdown MVP Derrick Rose and Paul George. Remember before when none of the Cavs center can guard Dwight Howard but he take the charge and sucessfully guarded him in some games.

Kobe would be ridiculous in this era! He had a 50+ point streak, was outscoring TEAMS (62 in 3 qtrs), dropped 81, and had 60 in his last game after tons of injuries and mileage! He did this in a tougher era plus a slower pace with less spacing/3s. Kobe was arguably the most skilled player ever with the best arsenal of moves. In this new, Kobe would average 40+ and put up ridiculous numbers! He needs more respect on his name.

It's a stat-padding league now. Jordan could average a triple double for his career if he really wanted to, same with Kobe. In my opinion, today's guys think that if they put up triple doubles they're absolved from any criticism, especially if they don't win a ring. "oh he's gotta do all that for them to win. Look at what this guy is doing. It's never been done." Yeah, taking rebounds away from your big man and assists away from your point guard has never been done the way it has today. Lebron, Westbrook, Harden are perfect examples. Then they wonder why their teams struggle. You disrupt their flow to the game. "But he averages 35/10/10. GOAT." Yeah, at the expense of his teammates not being productive.

CellGeist exactly. Also, everyone loves to bash the Warriors, and I’m a Lakers fan, but, the reason why they’re all All-Stars, is because they all play their positions/role so damn well that the team excels. KD isn’t out here trying to get 10-15 assists a game and 10+ rebounds. Draymond is trying to score 30 a game. Sure, there’s instances that the team needs that but they’re not trying to do it on a nightly basis.

LeBron passed Kobe as soon as he won his 2nd ring because then he had just as many FMVPs and 4x as many MVPs, and he never played with anyone even close to Prime Shaq or a coach anywhere near the level of Phil. The only argument for Kobe over LeBron is that Shaq gift-wrapped 3 rings for him so he has *5 haha. Without a HOF center and Phil, Kobe missed the playoffs in his prime multiple times and got bounced in the first round multiple times. LeBron took a team of nobodies to a finals in his 2nd playoffs at 22 (beating the champion pistons that had dismantled the ‘04 Lakers with Kobe, Shaq, Malone, and Payton). LeBron has made the finals 8 straight years and taken 3 of the top 10 worst supporting casts ever to a finals. He has proven that regardless of who’s on his team and who’s coaching, he makes his team a contender every year, Kobe and MJ literally never even won a single playoff SERIES without Phil AND a HOF teammate.

Wilt Chamberlain was basically Giannis, but as tall as Porzingis, as heavy as an Orlando Shaq, with longer arms than Rudy Gobert, with LeBron's passing and Tim Duncan's footwork. He also had the Dirk fadeaway before Dirk. (There are videos of this) Trash him all you want, but he led his team in 1966-67 to a 68-13 record and a title. That year he averaged 24 PPG, 24 RPG, 8 APG, on 0.683 FG. Not only that, there is newspaper data you can find about his blocks that year, the average amongst those games is 9.5 BPG. He almost averaged a quad-double, whilst leading his team to a title and the greatest record ever. The man led his team in every stat category, set the record for FG, led the league in rebounding and probably had the most blocks in a single season ever. You can't argue that he stat padded when they won 68 games, you can't say his stats were inflated because the team was filled with scrubs because some of them are hall of famers. You can't argue that the team was stacked either because Wilt led them in PTS, REBS, ASTS and FG. (Also blocks if they were recorded) If you don't want to call him the GOAT, you can at least acknowledge that his 66-67 season was the greatest individual season performance in history. That player that year is definitely the GOAT.

No he cant , nba today is all about three and shooting all above else. Kobe is a 32% 3pt shooter career and 40% midrange. His number will be low

Steven DiPreta you will see a lot of stars numbers drop . Also if they do that it would bring backchat defensive curtain . Because of no hand checking one of the reason we have so few defensive players. Everybody knows they need to score to survive in the nba

@@lamontbrooks626 You have nothing to back up that point... History proves he can't. Klay who scored 37pts in a quarter, had to go 13-13 fg with 9 for 9 from 3s. Dude had to shoot 100% just to achieve that. Like I said Kobe doing it is highly unlikely... Wilt's 100 they had to force feed him even when his team mates were wide open. Because he was too big for everyone, and can easily score. They foul the opponents every time just so they can get the ball back. The game was also a blow out. That out of the normal just like Kobe taking 50 shots in his last game. That would never happen in today's league. Kobe would literally have to take almost every shot.
