Remember when prime Kobe got shut down by Jason Kidd in 2011 playoffs

[FS4LFE]

Kind of logic is this? Kidd was still a good defender when he came to the Garden and shot the ball very well for the 1st half of the season; doesn't mean he was in his prime. Duncan could have won Finals MVP this season; doesn't mean he's in his prime. Dirk wasn't still in his prime in 2011 when he won Finals MVP. Kobe shot 40% from the field in that series. Only thing he did better than Pau was average more ppg much more inefficiently; doesn't mean he was in his prime.

Stop bringing up other people. We're talking about Kobe here. You haven't explained how it was a reach for KOBE's primed to ended in the 2011 playoffs.
And him shooting 40% doesn't prove his prime was over, as if he's been some efficient shooter during any point of his career.

Lj ain't on Kobe's level. A healthy Lj who really was in his prime, got punked by Kidd, Barea, Terry, etc, who are all half his size.

LeBron ain't on his level but he has more MVP's, same amount of finals MVP's and is on track to top his point, rebounds and assist totals. You're not needed here.

Don't forget him missing that game winning shot in G1 "clutch"

I did show how it was a reach to claim Kobe was in his prime by giving you a plethora of examples of other old players who played well but couldn't be considered in their primes. Stop bringing up others? No . You have no authority to instruct me . Just because you can't refute my examples, other than to childishly try to instruct me to "stop", doesn't change the fact that they're quite valid. Your reasoning is fallacious.

Pointing to Kobe shooting 40% wasn't to show he wasn't in his prime; that's why I brought up Pau. My point was Pau outplayed him but Kobe got the MVP, like when Wade outplayed Lj in the Finals last season by playing well in 5 games, while Lj only played well in 2, but they still gave it to Lj because he's the NBA's current fake Jordan and cash cow; Miami was the NBA's fake dynasty.

LeBron ain't on his level but he has more MVP's, same amount of finals MVP's and is on track to top his point, rebounds and assist totals. You're not needed here.

MVP's? Lj has only has them because the NBA needs a face of the league. Lj has more than Bird, Magic, Duncan, Shaq, and Hakeem to name a few. Further proof that the MVP award is a joke is that Nash has more than Barkley, Kobe, Garnett (who I can't stand but he's a great player), Wade, Iverson, Shaq, and Hakeem to name a few. To reiterate, Wade outplayed Lj in the Finals last season by playing well in 5 games, while Lj only played well in 2.

Kobe is on track to pass Jordan in points but he's not better than Jordan, so what's your point? There are so many spots where Lj can't sore. The best scorers can score from anywhere on the floor.

Assists? Lj has run the point, being the primary ball-handler for his team his whole career because he cannot play off the ball (click here for proof in Lj's own words).

Rebounds? He should average more rebounds. He's 6'8 and 40+ pounds larger than Kobe.

Your cape game is .

bytch you not making any sense. Once again you bringing different players in this scneario.

Like I said it's not a reach to say Kobe's prime ended in 2011.

LBJ only has 4 MVP's cause he's the face of the league? Yeah ok. I'm not reading the rest of this shyt.

@ the bold, Wade was trash the entire series.

@ the bold, Wade was trash the entire series.

I think he-she's a Knick fan, and there not really used to what good performances look like.

 

[GreatestLaker]

Kobe's prime ended around 08. His body started breaking down in 2010. Anyone who says Kobe was in his prime in 2011 is an idiot. He was playing on a knee that had very little cartilage and on a bad ankle. This was before his Germany trips.

Wade had a much better G3 than Bron but other than that LeBron severely outplayed him in every other game.

Some crazy shyt is said on the coli breh
