And I have a career to judge from. Kobe is a career 45% shooter, nowhere near 50%. You're talking about 5 freaking games. Jeremy Lin would be a GOAT candidate if we want to talk small sample sizes here. Just stop spewing garbage here.
He sho do. At least some of yall is realistic and can say it when kobe have a really bad streak, instead of jus sayin "LECHOKE FANBOIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Hey, did anyone else notice that Bynum shot more times than Kobe last night? Because he was able to abuse Jordan in the post, and Kobe/The Lakers recognized that. They were both very efficient going 13-19 (31) and 13-20(38) respectively. While Bynum was also able to get to the line 12 times hitting 10 of them, and boasted 4 blocks and a steal. If Kobe and Bynum can figure out how to co-exist then the Lakers could push back into contention.
Realistic? If LeChoke Fanbois are realistic, they should realize LeChoke is still ringless and shouldn't be mentioned in the same sentence as Kobe. Instead, they start these nonsense threads like Kobe holding back lakers. LOL, even BSPN wouldn't come up with such crap. So Kobe haters are justified to post crap and Kobe fans have no right to point that out or what?
Kobe does hold back the Lakers. He rarely gets double teamed anymore, and he's a high volume shooter. If he really wanted that 6th ring, he would let the offense run through Bynum and Gasol. But his ego won't let that happen.
And that's nothing but your opinion. And I couldn't care less. Kobe has won 5 rings to prove his way can work, unlike LeChoke. Talk is cheap and PER doesn't win you championships.
I said That is not an opinion, he rarely gets double teamed, and he is a high volume shooter. Prove to me that those are opinions and not facts. This was an opinion, but it is common sense. When you have dominant bigs, you feed them the ball and let them work. Dominant bigs win championships, but Kobe won't let himself be the sidekick like he was with Shaq.
Well actually, he has 2 rings proving that his way can work. The first 3 were obtained by feeding the big beast with him being a secondary option. And when it worked his way, he wasn't shooting 43%.
Kobe has had a few good shooting games lately. The Lakers' offense are quite different when Kobe shoots above 45%. The problem is that he is strictly a jump shooter these days and jump shooters are streaky.
You said he's rarely doubled team, but do you have any numbers on how many possessions he's doubled team, and how many he wasn't? It all comes out from your mouse so conveniently. And how do you define rarely? See, it's all subject and you've been so used to it you think it's facts. LeChoke fanbois think LeChoke is GOAT, and to them it's fact as well.
Show me one post where I said I was a Lebron fan. You spew so much garbage when you run out of things to say. Are you really asking me for stats on double teams? You're a Kobe fan, I know you watch his games, tell me how often he gets doubled. Tell me how often Bynum gets doubled. Whether you want to admit it or not, that team should be running through Bynum and Gasol, not someone averaging 10 makes on over 23 attempts per game.
There you go again, using a limited sample of data to try and save your invalid point. You stated Kobe has 5 rings doing things this way. No, he has 2. And over the course of the 09 and 10 seasons he wasn't shooting 43%. He shot 47% and 46% in 09 and 10 (46% in both playoffs). 3-point % wa much better too. Try again....
So you don't have any numbers and it's just your opinion, is that correct? LOL, you defeat yourself in one post and it's not really worth arguing with a delusional fan.
Is that the best excuse you got? I'm a delusional fan? I don't know if you're more obsessed with Kobe or Lebron. I mean, you mention them both every chance you get, and you have Lebron in your signature. Funny how you're focused on the double team thing. You don't need stats for that, you can just watch the game and see that Kobe doesn't get double teamed like he used to. Yet you ignored the volume shooter thing from the very beginning. Replace Kobe with Mcgrady, Vince Carter, Reggie Miller, A.I., or pretty much any other star in the early 00's and they still 3peat. You know why?
Kobe is heavily doubled team when he posts up. And you believe otherwise. You have a such a strong opinion that you claim it's facts. But at the same time you don't have any number to back up you claim. If that's not delusional, I don't know what is.
