2001 Kobe ain't better than Durant. Get real.

People sleeping on exactly how good a scorer Durant is. Durant, last year, was PRIME Kobe level and MORE efficient.

While I agree, the game is played on both ends of the floor Frobe's D > Durant

Kobe's 2001 playoff run > any Durant playoff run

Let's be real, Durant is scoring at a much higher efficiency than Kobe with Westbrook.

Durant and Shaq? That would literally break the league. Durant was scoring 31 points on high efficiency against a top tier defense while he literally had Kendrick Perkins and Sefalosja in his starting lineup.

Durant would score something like 32 on 58 FG% with Shaq inside.

eFG and ORAPM is what you want to use.

Second, you are ignoring that Kobe is a significantly better facilitator and defender than Durant has ever shown capable of

Iverson,Shaq,Webber,Duncan, Garnett

where was Kobe top 3 that year
I said top 3 TALENT. Iverson and Webber weren't more talented than him. Kobe was just as talented in 2000 as he was in 2001. He just didn't put it all together in 2000.

:russ: I'm not gonna go as far as to say that Paul George is not a good player because that's obviously not true, but the fact some people on this site think he's remotely anywhere near a prime kobe from an offensive standpoint is laughable.

Don't insult PG like that. He is a team player, good attitude and humble. Nothing like Kobe. And he ain't coming to LA :ld:

Kobe was this good entering his 4th year? You fakkit ass Kobe stans are hilarious copping pleas. PG has potential to be better, it's ultimately on him to reach that level
:dwillhuh:People with shytty opinions like this should get an automatic ban:heh:.
