plus i see lebron as more power than skill, he has skill, but he doesn't rely on it as much as kobe, you see kobe's skill every night, he is a top guard of all time no matter how he ranks, his skill, like tmacs, is obvious. lebron doesn't need to rely on skill to finish at the rim, as some players do, i.e. scola has skills that lebron couldn't touch, for now he just simply bumps off his man, dunks or lays it off the glass, i hope lebron develops his shot more b4 he loses his athletic dominance, he'll be really scary then
percentages say otherwise..kobe may be better at getting circus shots over 3 defenders to go in, but that to me just says 'poor shot selection'.
Mo W and Shaq were all star last year, Odom and Bynum ain't all star last year. And undoubtly Cavs have a much better bench. Let's not pretend LBJ has no support.
% includes layup. LBJ gets to the hoop way more often, that's why his % is higher. If you check breakdown from 82games, his mid-range game is way worse than Kobe's. He did shoot better 3 this year, but Kobe's having a career worst on 3. Maybe it's the fingers.
exactly, kobe can actually shoot, if you watch lebron outside of the highlights you'll know he still is not a reliable shooter
Lebron just started bullying in the paint this year. Ask battier and artest. With that being said that completes his game. Cleveland 2010 Nba Champions.
MJ wasnt a shooter in his early days. He was an athletic freak just like LeBron that dont need to settle for the jump shots like Kobe does. LBJ's shots are getting better day by day, he used to not have 3's in his package, now a constant reliable weapon. His fadaway j's are getting better too. The guy just turned 25. Sky is his limit.
nba hotspots shows kobe better at the midrange jumper and lebron better at 3point shooting. i didn't include layups or dunks.
