LeBron shot 56.5% this season.
By the numbers -
Durant -
81% of his shots were jumpers, he shot .522% eFG on them, 50% of his jumpers were assisted.
LeBron -
65% of his shots were jumpers, shot .526% eFG on them, 37% of his jumpers were assisted.
You're trying to paint LeBron out as someone that only scores from inside as though he's a center, when in fact 12.2ppg were from jumpshots, by comparison the guy who you're saying scored "way more" scored 14.9ppg on jumpers and more of LeBron's shots overall are unassisted.
exactly....81%-65%. thats a big difference LOL, what are u saying?
kobe>kd>lebron.....get over it

LOL...SO SHAQ HAD A BETTER SHOT SELECTION THAN MICHAEL JORDAN. THE LEBRON LOYALISTS ARE TOO MUCH![]()
Kobe stayed gettin doubled all thru the 3peat so they obviously were tryna stop him too, thats what made them so deadly cause opponents could only double one at a time so when Kobe saw the double he threw it to a single covered Shaq and vise versa if a double came Shaq kicked it out to Kobe for a good look. That superstar Center/superstar SG duo is the perfect combo cause they complement each other's game so well, you take either part of that lethal combo away and they ain't winnin period.Ask anyone on those Kings teams who the problem on the Lakers was. They'll all say it was Shaq. That's who they were trying to stop. They wanted Kobe taking more of the offense and I don't know if there are any teams that thought differently during that three peat.
Was Kobe "easily replaceable?" No. But my point of view was always that any of the star perimeter players at that time could have been subbed in for Kobe. You Stans all claimed that Kobe being part of the championship teams made him better than VC, Iverson, TMac, etc but that simply wasn't the case.
This post is so so weak, the titles ain't given to the entire conference b. The East is so thin the one or two elite teams out there basically walk to the finals while cats have always had to fight thru the west, which makes the Kobe/Shaq Lakers sweepin thru the West in 01 all the more impressive.The East has 5 of the 10 titles awarded during LeBron's career. So so weak.
If he could make it wit Smush Parker Luke Walton and Kwame Brown he damn sure can make it wit them nikkas.Would Kobe have made the playoffs with Boobie Gibson and Big Z? Sure didnt with a more talented 2005 Lakers.
Kobe has the ball just as much as LeBron does. If Kobe's sole responsibility is to score and thats the only way he can ever beat you......and doesnt even score as well as LeBron, guess what?

Dh86 Kobe Bryant once averaged 35.4 ppg. Kobe Bryant had five games with at least 60. Kobe Bryant best game is 81 points. Kobe Bryant won 2 consecutive scoring titles. Kobe Bryant has 133 games in which he scored 40 or more points. Of these 26 were 50+ point games. Kobe scored 40 points or more in 9 consecutive games. Kobe Bryant scored 50 points or more in four consecutive games. I think Kobe Bryant also holds the record for the most three-point field goals made in a game (12).
