So you’re arguing that 33 year old Shaq should’ve won more after 2004 than 26 year old Kobe, effectively stating that even at his advanced age, he should have still won more after they were done as teammates having already played an extra 4 nba seasons and had 3 years in college. I also agree that Shaq was definitively a better player overall, but that’s kinda unrealistic

Curry's game is like watching a 3pt contest
Watching Kobe was a spectacle, and this is coming from a bron stan

why did they chose kobe over shaq¿Call Kobe a 1b when he was the clearcut 2nd option when Shaq was on the floor and was obviously not as good on the biggest stage.
Shaq got 3 FMVPs while Kobe was sulking in the corner
how many rings do the lakers get with 09/10 shaq as the #1 option¿

Yes.
No perimeter player in the history of the game had to deal with more defensive attention than he did (prior to Durant arriving). Dudes quickly forget that outside of Klay, the Warriors didn't have any other great talent on offense in 2015/16. Draymond was the only player who averaged double digits and even he capitalized off all the open looks he got from his man being worried about Curry.

I dont think you can compare a great warriors team to a team like the mid 2000s lakers. There was no klay, no No bench to score 40 points in a game 1, no Andre off the bench to be FMVP. Steph on a ass team like the lakers has to do much more
Umm yeah. Curry already showed that his shooting ability warps defenses outward and changes how defenses have to guard him. Draymond wasn't a "good" shooter in 2015-16, Curry just drew so much attention that teams would live with letting him take the three.
Oh geez, I wonder how a guy like Trevor Ariza would looking shooting the three when the floor is spaced with Curry, Fisher, Gasol, and Odom out there? Oh wait, we've seen how Ariza looks with the kinda Curry-Esque spacing available and he looks like a damn sharpshooter with Harden.
Even if Curry loses a shyt ton of efficiency, he'd still be on another planet of efficiency than Kobe. You must not be understanding this but comparing Kobe and Curry's efficiency is like comparing Lebron and Melo. Even if Lebron lost a shyt ton of efficiency and chucked, he'd still be much higher. Y'all acting like the difference in efficiency is some tiny difference but it's not.

Curry shoots better from deep on the career than Kobe did from the field altogether while having as bad a shot selection as Kobe had, if not worse, but dudes want to argue that he wouldn’t be as efficient? This is a joke :laughingphil:
I respectfully disagree. I'm of the opinion that if you surround Curry with trash players, something Klay nor Green have never been, his efficiency would go down.
Feel free to have the last word.

Wow steph is so much more efficient than Kobe 
And I like how we're ignoring that Curry is a far more willing and dangerous passer than Kobe. Curry's gravity and quick decision making allows him to create so many easy opportunities for his teammates.
The ability to get your teammates touches and make them feel like part of the offense is vital rather than just telling them to grab boards from your missed shots. Curry is a better off-ball player, passer, and playmaker than Kobe too if we keeping it a stack.
Kobe got a better (More willing) mid-range game, a much better post game, is a better finisher, and a much better on-ball defender.

Curry is not a better NBA player than Kobe Bryant, Idaf what the %s say.
Curry is a 47% career fg shooter...that number will go down as he progresses in age. Kobe is a career 45% shooter.
Curry is a better shooter than Kobe, he is NOT a better basketball player. And I say that as a person who would always bytch about Kobe's shot selection.
Ya muthaphukas smoking crack if you think Curry is a better NBA player than Kobe.
I'm out this goddamn thread.

Wanna compare Klay and Gasol then Odom and Dray's playoff stats then compare the efficiency of Kobe and Curry?
Wanna pull up Kobe's efficiency with Prime Shaq? Or with Payton and Malone? Or with Dwight, Nash, and Gasol?
You pick Kobe's best years for efficiency and let's compare?
