    Was watching the lakers broadcast and the announcers tried spin it with, if you include his free throws, his true shooting percentage is the same as MJ. I lol.

    No inefficient chucker will ever chuck more than Kobe, his record will stand forever. He is truly the undisputed king of the volume shooters.

    Kobe is such a polarizing figure. It's hard to find someone who's honest about Kobe. Some people actually think he's one of the top 5 GOATs, and some say he sucks. Kobe is really damn good. Sure he had help winning rings, but all players have had help. But that said, he really is a bad teammate and inefficient player, but his game is fun to watch.

    Is he really? I mean in his defense he is shooting 45% throughout his career, which is pretty good for a guard. I always thought someone like Jamal Crawford is a volume shooter, not Kobe tho.
