Is the idea of Kobe as a chucker, a myth?

[Skip b]

This is why people hate these analytic nerd ass geek clowns...

You have to watch the games and not just go off stats.

I watched Kobe’s entire career like I watched Tim Duncan’s

Kobe was a fukkin nut the likes of which few have ever been... Tim Duncan was never a nut like Kobe...

fukk outta here with this @Sccit dumb ass Kobe nut hugging propaganda

Kobe was a nut!

Duncan was too unselfish actually, he was pretty unstoppable in his prime, word to his bank shot

Pop help back Duncan, Manu, and later Kawhi

Manu was a superstar caliber player, he birthed the hardens of the world, and is still a top 5 sg even after playing bench most of his career

But duncan played the right way right?

And he played the mid block

And he didn't take on double and triple teams

So why are their fg percentages so close

 

[qashif]

TS% is a terrible metric

Look, breh. Bean is my favorite athlete period.


That man loved to shoot and he wasn't apologetic about it.


That was his greatest strength and weakness. He just didn't give a damn. His mindset was that of, "By any means neccessary." Not only did he have no conscience, he also took shots with the intent to demoralize the opponent, which led to many inefficient outings. It's why he has some of the most prolific high scoring games in the history of the sport. It's why he's considered the best "difficult shot maker" in basketball history. It's why he finished with 60 in his last game despite starting that night ice cold from the field. It's also why he missed more shots than any other player in NBA history. It is what it is. That's who he was.

Oh now TS don’t count I see. Tim’s fg% is only 4% higher than Kobe’s despite being a big.

Kobe Bryant spent his career hitting tough midrange shots all while being doubled and tripled teamed for 15 years. The fact that his fg% is as high as it is is amazing in its own right.

the real purpose of quantum computing is to spit out bs for %whores to make bs arguments ha*

No different from someone who uses a Stevie Wonder eye-test, to spit out bullshyt, to make bullshyt arguments. I don't know why you continuously bring this up as if this quantum computing group are the only ones to talk nonsense. Agendas are everywhere.

SPEAKIN OF NUTS, I SEE MINES IS STILL IN YO MOUF

 

[Sccit]

Kobe shot 3's which boosts his TS%

Duncan did not.

Reggie Miller has the highest TS% of any Guard for this reason.

Anybody who watched Kobe knows he chucked his ass off breh

KOBE HAD EXCELLENT EFFICIENCY FOR A SHOOTING GUARD

A CHUCKER WOULD BE SOME1 WHO SHOOTS CLOSER TO 40% (ALLEN IVERSON, LATRELL SPREWELL, JERRY STACKHOUSE ETC.) .. KOBE WAS ALWAYS AROUND 45%-47% IN HIS PRIME, WHICH IS WELL ABOVE AVERAGE AT THE 2.

BUT COLORADO CHANGED EVERYTHING WHEN IT COMES TO THE PERCEPTION OF KOBE WIT HONKEYS, SO LET EM GO N TELL IT.

 

[Double Burger With Cheese]

Smh at these nerds. This is some of the stupidest basketball shyt I’ve ever read. Clearly these nerds don’t watch games

 

[killacal]

Only early Duncan did that


Early Duncan

Did you offer Kobe your mouth after his last game?

YOU GOT A LOT OF HOMOEROTIC THOUGHTS ON YOUR MIND THERE BRODIE

This thread reads like an episode of The Twilight Zone.

Kobe stans are probably the most anti-analytics group there is (or what they perceive to be analytics), yet they're using a piece that's based on analytics to prop up Kobe, whilst folks are running in here talking about that's why they hate analytics and nerds. Bizzare I tell ya.
