Does Bean have the most complete offensive arsenal ever?

[Sccit]

Saying "Kobe's outside shooting is perhaps better than Michael's" is not being definitive whatsoever. He was purposely being vague in effort to not come right out and say that Mike was completely better than Kobe in every way, which is basically what he said in his recent book. You have to remember, he was coaching Kobe at the time. The long pause and the clearing of the throat when being asked to cosign the silly assertion that Kobe was more skilled than Mike says it all. So no, Phil didn't actually say "Kobe is a better shooter than Mike was" like you're fakkit ass tried to imply.

WELL, THERES NO DOUBT THAT PHIL HAS A CLOSER RELATIONSHIP WITH MICHAEL AS A PERSON THAN HE EVER HAS HAD WITH KOBE....SO FOR HIM TO EVEN GO OUT AND SAY THOSE THINGS ARE PRETTY BIG, AND COULD ALSO EXPLAIN THE GULP YOU BROUGHT UP. HE ALSO ONCE SAID KOBE HAS BETTER HANDLES, WHICH IS ANOTHER THING U CAN ADD TO THE LIST THAT KOBE HAS ABOVE MJ, MELO, PIERCE, LEBRON ETC. AND EVERY1 ELSE MENTIONED IN THIS THREAD.

Kobe Bean Bryant has the full arsenal. Any shot you want to see he has it.

he has no shot this year.

 

[Bilz]

He shot 70% at the rim, 47% from midrange this season at 34 years old

Imagine prime Kobe

Why would anyone have to imagine it? There are stats for it and they weren't any better than the ones you posted.

Who cares if it isnt translating to dominance on the court it doesn't matter.Kobes offensive "dominance" is exaggerated by his stans.For someone supposedly so dominant he has 2 scoring titles in 17 years,and 1 50 point playoff game in 220 playoff games and 1 40 point finals game in 38 finals games


But kobe did score 81 vs the raptors in january

2nd of all-time in scoring 30+ points in the playoffs

3rd in all-time playoff points

The ONLY player to score 600+ points in 3 consecutive playoff years



He's not on the level of Jordan in the finals but don't act like he's a post season bust niqqa.

Regardless, Kobe has the most COMPLETE offensive arsenal. The most efficient? Nah,,that's not what the OP asked. You dudes always try to flp shyt instead of answering the actual question.

 

[Propaganda]

yeah, he probably does. he's got a million moves/counters both in the post and off the dribble, can pull up going either way, can hit shots from anywhere even if he's triple teamed lol, he CAN be a really good passer when he wants to be, he can pretty much do whatever out there.

that said, kobe stanleys need to chill and his haters need to stop that vein from popping in their heads and realize that being the most complete/versatile means just that...not 'best', not most efficient, not 'greatest' or anything else...he's just the most complete/versatile.

0:49.



My dude had nine consecutive 40 point games that year. This was one of 'em. It was amazing to watch.

 

[Pimp]

He is the only wing player to have an 81 point game. So I would say yes,

He's probably the only wing player to score that many points and still be in the game. I'm sure others could do it but they like to do a thing called PASS THE BALL.

Pass the ball? His teammates were Smush Parker, Kwame Brown, Luke Walton etc and they were being blown out by 15+ points. Why would you pass the ball to teammates like that? And where are those players nowadays?

He had 63 points & they were winning by 11 points in the fourth quarter. Lamar Odom was playing that game. All of this against the garbage azz raptors.

. All of this against the garbage azz raptors.

If it was that easy, why hasnt anyone else done it then against a "garbage ass raptors" team? The same garbage ass raptors that the rest of the Lakers ended the game shooting a combined 14-42 FG (33.3%) against.

You are aware he shot 61% from the field, 54% from 3pt land, and 90% from the line in that game right breh.

You know how hard it is to exhibit that kind of shooting efficiency shooting the ball THAT many times (46 FGAs and 20 FTAs) in one game?

There's no way you can ever downplay that performance.....ESPECIALLY if you respect Wilt Chamberlains 100 point game. Kobe scored in a variety of ways in that game. Dunks/layups/low post shots/fadeaways/fall away jumpers/turn around jumpers/off the dribble pull up jumpers/off screen, catch and shoot jumpers/3point shots


It was the GREATEST example of way Kobe has the most complete offensive arsenal ever.
