KOBE WOULDA AVERAGED 40 PPG IN THIS STAT INFLATED ERA

[Sccit]

No matter how you look at it, Kobe's preferred style of play was not best for his team. People like you like to say he has 5 championships playing his way but its far from the truth.

I guess your argument here is that if you adjust for pace, Kobe would be taking 33 shots per game these days and scoring 40ppg

NAME ME ONE OTHER PLAYER THAT WOULDA TOOK SMUSH PARKER, LUKE WALTON, AND KWAME BROWN TO 7 GAMES AGAINST A CONTENDER.

AND YOURE TOO STUPID TO UNDERSTAND THAT LEAGUE AVERAGE WAS 97 PPG IN 2006 AND ALMOST 10 POINTS MORE TODAY

And Kobe still took more shots than harden or Westbrook. By your math Lebron from 2006 would average 36 11 11

And while you could make an argument for minutes played...the NBA plays nearly 6 possessions faster this year vs '05/06 so it evens out

 

[Versa]

If KD decided to be a chucker he'd do that on higher efficiency with more rebounds and better free throw shooting

 

[I AM WARHOL]

I honestly have no doubt he could average 40 in this day and age on an average team. None at all.

 

[Jordan>>LeFrozen]

A younger Bean would put up 40 in this era.

You know what time it is.

Yall are acting like his prime was 40 years ago


He'd need a minimum of 31 shots a game to to 40ppg, and no sane coach is going to allow that. His style of play led to his teams playing at a slower pace, the same way LeBron's style of play leads to a slower pace.

WE DONT HAVE ANY PLAYERS WHO CAN SCORE LIKE KOBE AI AND ARENAS NOWADAYS .. DURANT COULD, BUT HE SHARES OFFENSIVE DUTIES WIT STEPH N KLAY.... LOOK AT THE DIFFERNCE IN SHOT ATTEMPTS ON THE CHART U POSTED.

THE MORE IMPORTANT STAT IN ALL THIS IS HOW MUCH HIGHER TEAM SCORING IS THAN IT WAS BACK THEN.

KD DONT HAVE KOBES HANDLES OR FOOTWORK. OFFENSIVE ARSENAL A STEP BELOW.

On a bottom seed playoff team i could see him avg 40

NOT REALLY .. HE'D BE GUARDED LESS EFFICIENTLY WIT THE WAY TEAMS PLAY D, AS WELL AS SHOOTING MORE THREES IN THIS ERA. 30+ SHOTS WOULD HAVE HIM CLOSE TO 50.

WESTBROOK SHOOTS 24 SHOTS A GAME WITOUT HAVING CLOSE TO THE SAME OFFENSIVE ARSENAL AS PRIME KOBE.

 

[SymbolicOne09]

NOPE .. PRIME KOBE A MUCH GREATER SCORER.

Kobe wasn't a good three point shooter, so what are you rambling about? Kobe's style of play led to his teams playing at a slower pace, why is this so difficult for you to get? The pace this year is 96.8, In 07-08 the Lakers played at a 95.6 pace, where was the 40ppg average? It's the same damn rules, so what are you even saying?
