“Kobe belongs in the GOAT conversation” - Dennis Rodman

[Mister Terrific]

Yeah the shortest conversation in the history of the English language

Rather be what you consider me here than a fraud Black man carrying the water for racists.

This is about math. You hate math when it doesn’t favor Kobe.

It’s like idiots that say Shaq should’ve had a jumper. Why? When he’s damn near shooting at 60% under the basket? You clowns are about esthetics. It’s the reason why yall hate the 3 ball with today’s players shooting it with more efficiency as it removes the impact of the 2.

You NBA fans are dumb as fukk.

Kobe is an ATG, Bron as well. Bron has better numbers but less rings so sure you can make an argument for Kobe there if thats what you value.

But MJ has better stats and more rings, so unless you want to go off of feelings, you can't really make a argument.

 

[Mister Terrific]

I'd


Lebron knows he's not good at shooting so he goes in for dunks and layups where he is effective. But in the Playoffs, when defenses tighten up, that shyt didn't work. He lost to the Orlando Magic, with multiple games coming down to 1 or 2 points. If my guy could hit a jumper or hit a high percentage from the free throw, he probably could've won. Boston took away those dunks in 2010 too. LeBron averaged 32ppg, 7rbs, 6ast on 54% the first three games vs. Boston in 2010. The last three games of the series, he averaged 21ppg, 11rbs, 8ast on

Beaners just say anything

this has to be dated because Lebron is like 8k or some shyt now.

Those are still really great numbers for Kobe though lets keep it a buck 24 PER with his playstyle is amazing.

 

[Ozymandeas]

Great post.... Can you break down the 2004 finals for us

I could but, I broke down LeBron's 4 games vs. Detroit in 2004 instead

In those 4 games, LeBron averaged 0.297% shooting, which is downright terrible

2004 pistons My favorite team ever had rookie bron and prime Kobe with 3 other all starts on lock

Yeah he’s a bottom half of the top 10, top 15 at minimum. Only Kobe stans see that as an insult.

Did Lebron have a costar averaging 26 points on 60% shooting

oh so you saying Kobe better than MJ

thats cool.

Now compose an argument devoid of ad hominems or emotion for why you believe that.

If your reasoning for Kobe > MJ is that he scored 81 points, then sure. say that. At least you will have given something tangible here.

I didn’t say anything about Mike. You’re an idiot.

Nah, you’re just a fraud and a dikkrider. NBA fans are dumb but you were dapping up posts saying the Lakers would’ve more with Tmac than Kobe. lol @ comparing Bron to Shaq btw. You nikkas are idiots. Mr Lakers fan

I literally was laughing aar LeBron’s corny ass shoes on another thread, but you didn’t see those daps did you?

Corny c00n ass niqqa. I don’t want to impress you.

Such intriguing discourse.

real talk if you going to do nothing but respond like a little fakkit stop quoting me

 

[Killer Instinct]

STFU. Kobe had plenty of times to leave. Has LeBron stayed anywhere for 10+ years?

If LeBron was Kobe, he would've been gone by 2010, the moment he heard about "The Decision" and Superteams forming up

And if not, he definitely would've been gone by 2013

Nov 25, 2013 ​

Signed a 2 year $48 million contract extension with Los Angeles (LAL)

Apr 02, 2010 ​

Signed a 3 year $83.5 million veteran extension with Los Angeles (LAL)

Jun 30, 2009 ​

Exercised $24.8 million Player Option with Los Angeles (LAL) for 2010-2011

Jul 15, 2004 ​

Signed a 7 year $136.4 million contract with Los Angeles (LAL)

Lebron would have took one look at that roster in '08 after that Lakers loss in Game 6 vs Boston and tried to figure out how to flip any combination of Sasha Vujacic, Andrew Bynum, Luke Walton, Lamar Odom, Vladamir Radmonovijc, Jordan Farmar, & Ronny Turiaf for Dwight Howard, D Rose, & a three point specialist.

For me, the argument for Kobe is that his path had the most degree of difficulty.

Less physically gifted than anybody he's usually compared to. Wasn't gifted a team early on to run the numbers up like he could have. Shaq was of course a force of nature but the more you learn about him the more that difficulty meter goes up because he's a fukking bozo. Taking on the challenge of shedding that dead weight and almost grinding out another 3 peat. Playing through his case, he got his the hard way, in a lot of instances intentionally.

He has that over Bron and Mike IMO.

Shaq was “dead weight” ?

What do you mean by he wasnt gifted a team?

Your boy went from being to “lebronze “. Bean changed the trajectory of USA basketball .the banana boat friends were all losers till bean taught them how to win . That’s all we need to discuss about “impacted the game” . A microcosm in his illustrious career :umad;

And Kobe’s better than LeBron in general. You got podcasters and bleached reports on YouTube I got NBA hall of famers on my side we not the same

LeBron is better than Kobe too but he has nothing to do with my comment. I was talking about Jordan.
