JUS LIKE I THOUGHT, A PUSY ASS FAGOT WHO TALKS BIG BUT DONT EVEN HAVE THE BALLS TO SHOW HIS FACE ON A MESSAGE BOARD.

:martin:

You're such a confused idiot. An autistic wigger who posts his shytty music and makes shyttier comments in all caps shouldn't be accusing others of being "maladjusted". I'm guessing you learned that term from one of your normal, successful siblings, and it was probably directed against you. You are a self-absorbed retard, the same idiot who made a thread bragging about how well you felated kobe over the years on various message boards.

It's really astonishing. He saw how far he was trailing another Kobe Stan in the race to get that ugly pink badge and decided to ramp the volume up in hopes of getting it for himself. He's either legit slow or he's a double agent posing as a Kobe Stan who is trying to be as terrible as can be as satire.

Has Kobe ever had a season shooting 50%? You do know that shooting percentage factors into skill, right?


STRAWMAN ARGUMENT .. JORDAN NEVER SHOT 50% ONCE POST 1992, WHEN NBA PLAYERS EVOLVED AND DEFENSIVE ADVANCEMENTS IN THE LEAGUE BEGAN TAKING PLACE. KOBE WOULDA SHOT 60% IF HE WAS PLAYIN AGAINST THE 6'2 SHOOTING GUARDS OF THE EIGHTIES .. TIM DUNCAN IS A BIG MAN WHO DOESNT SHOOT THREES AND SHOT UNDER 50% FOR A MAJORITY OF HIS CAREER ..... AND HES CONSIDERED THE GOAT PF. THE MORE RANGE U HAVE, THE LOWER YOUR PERCENTAGE WILL NATURALLY BE. IF KOBE WAS A WEAK THREE POINT SHOOTER ALA JORDAN, HIS PERCENTAGES WOULD GO UP.

You need to be negged. Kobes shot selection was horrible, he also had a much lower basketball iq. Go back and look at how they used the TRIANGLE and the shots Kobe would take. If his shot was off he would keep shooting. With Jordan, he would concentrate on other areas of the floor. Dude would be in the triangle and shoot out of a triple team, Jordan would look for the open man. There is a video that breaks that shyt down.


PEOPLE MANIPULATE FOOTAGE TO SWAY THE MINDS OF CASUALS SUCH AS YOURSELF ALL THE TIME .. ITS CALLED PROPAGANDA

see the difference between Jordan and Kobe is that Jordan understood he was a weak 3pt shooter, so he stopped shooting 3's. This is reflected by his higher shooting % and his TS%.

Kobe took 3's and despite the benefit of an extra point if he made it, he still had a worse TS% (which takes into account the extra point that comes from 3's)

say what you want about his garbage basketball views but Sccit makes dope music - his groups album was the best west coast release of 2015 :manny:


SHAQ HAVING SENIORITY DOES NOT MAKE HIM THE BETTER PLAYER .. KOBE WAS BETTER BY 2001,

THEIR TRUE SHOOTING PERCENTAGE IS COMPARABLE

AND ONCE U TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE DEFENSIVE ADVANCEMENTS THAT TOOK PLACE WHEN MJ WAS OUT THE LEAGUE, THEN U CAN OBJECTIVELY ASSESS BOTH PLAYERS ACCORDINGLY.

how

Why? Jordan shot the ball more accurately than Bryant, with a true shooting percentage of .580 to Bryant’s .556

Jordan's TS% is better

the levels of delusion to try comparing kobe to his airness is just :scust:. I'll settle this debate. Career averages of 30/6/6 on 50% shooting while consistently grading out as a fantastic defender compared to averages of 25/5/5 on 44% shooting while grading out as an average/below average defender. Even simpler if that doesn't to it is 6 rings compared to 5, 6 finals MVP awards to 2, a defensive player of the year award for mike, and 5 MVP awards to 1 in favor of mike. this is like comparing Manny Ramirez to Babe Ruth or something as absurd.

WRONG .. MJ SHOT .569 TS%

COMPARABLE TO KOBE, BUT KOBES IS BETTER WHEN U TAKE INTO ACCOUNT HE WAS NEVER GUARDED BY 6'2 SHOOTING GUARDS ALA MJ
the article is comparing Kobe and MJ from the ages of 21-34 (their primes)
