ESPN Ranks the Top 25 NBA Players

[Based Lord Zedd]

That leaves us with the 28 points and there are a lot more than 4 or 5 players that can average 28 points if they got 23 shots a game. All of the guys ranked 1-5 on the list, Wade, Westbrook, Love, Monta Ellis, Melo, Dirk, Deron, etc. can all do it without question. Sure some guys might be screwing up their team's offense by taking that many shots but to be honest, I don't think Kobe is any different.

This is retarded.

Monta has put up ~23 shots a game, shot 22 and only averaged 25.5. But he could average 28 a night without question? Maybe he should start shooting more, he's on the bum ass Bucks fukk else they gonna do?

The players you listed by name have 54 combined seasons in the league, only 3 of those seasons we saw a > 28 ppg average. But they could all do it huh? And I'd love to see the rest of your list, the etc. the other players that you left off that can drop 28 w/o question.

I guess the only thing stopping them is that they don't get enough shots, like a coach wouldn't LOVE to give the greenlight to a player that's capable of dropping 28 a night. Ridiculous.

You're not getting 28 points a night unless you're an elite scorer, period. Very few players can handle that workload + attention they'll get from the defense and still score in bundles nightly. Trying to discredit Kobe doing something very few players have proven they're able to do is just your hate for a player getting the best of you. Kobes far from a perfect player find something legitimate to complain about.

Think about who you're responding to for a second.......

This dude has logged more posts in the Lakers threads than I have and all of it is hating bullshyt. It really doesn't matter what Kobe did, does, or will do, Bliz is either gonna hate on it or downplay it.

Oh, you read it all right, you just weren't expecting your shyt to be swatted into the third row.

You're kidding yourself

If it makes you feel any better, if Kobe took more shots, he'd score more too. It's simple math.

I'm not mentioning guys like Monta Ellis to discredit Kobe, I'm pointing out the dangers of using statisical landmarks without putting them in proper context. If Monta plays Monta-ball and outscores the rest of the league, are we really going to say he's the best player out there? He's a damn good scorer as is Kobe but if you're going to completely ignore that a guy is taking 15-20% more shot attempts than even the most prolific and efficient scorers in the league....

No nikka. That game needs to be posted along with the other games where guys like Westbrook and deron and tony Parker have gotten in his ass. Paul
Is easily the most overrated nikka in the league. Top 5 and never seen a conf finals ever? Lmao! Rondo, Parker, Russ and Deron AND rose all have. Clippers won't this year either. bytch nikka was lettin mike Conley get off in round 1. nikka Please!

Lol @ makin it to a conferance Finals being the criteria for being the best pg in the league.

So because Derrick Rose made it the ecf in '11 he's a better Pg than paul? Despite the fact paul has averaged more assists,less turnovers and had cats like tyson chandler and david west with career high numbers?

i will never take anyone seriously until they realize cp3 beat the lakers twice with muthafukking marco belinelli MARCO BELINELLI im done here

Belly is a good shooter though. He ain't that terrible or bad really. I honestly thought that Father Phil got out-coached badly by Monty Williams in that 1st round in 2011. The Lakers should have easily swept them, but Pau got beasted on by Carl fukkin' Landry But thankfully David West wasn't playing in that playoffs and luckily talent was really the main reason why that 2011 Lakers squad was able to beat that David West-less Hornets squad. But, CP3 did beast though on the Lakers too though

So he's top 5 because he made west have career numbers but can't elevate a better player in Blake Griffin? Dumbass nig. Dude had mOre turnovers than points in a playoff game vs Denver. Dude got raped by Tony Parker. I don't care about his assist numbers. Win games clown. Paul is a loser. He will embarrass j Kidd and d fisher but when he plays guys who actually can score and are young he's nothing. I pray to see an OKC/Clipper series. While you beat off to Paul's assists, Russ will be abusing him and winning. fukk outta here

 

[Thegospel]

Lol at people bringing up Paul winning with Marco yet got swept with Blake/mo/nock young/etc. most overrated cat in the Nba

Paul and Blake were injured playing, billups was out, the spurs were rolling you know the rest.

They list a 24 point lead. Shut the fuvk up. Lol nikkas always giving Paul excuses. He was shytted on by the Frenchman. Duncan didn't leads that team. Ginobli didn't lead them. It was #9 clownin
