I feel you on that shyt! Enjoy greatness when you see it. You don't have to be a fan of the man but 30k is legit. Ain't no bums on that short list. Everybody who's scored 30k in their career at least shot 50% for at least one season of their remarkable career....hold up wait....:troll:

Hmm, I going to have to weigh in on this and say I've never heard of a coach say give the ball to Kobe and get the hell out of the way. We've heard that said with Michael though.

You must not remember the short time Kobe played for Rudy "I'll Iso Anybody" Tomjanovich.

Jordan is still the man compared to Kobe

JORDAN walked out of college onto a losing team called the bulls and was the starter instantly. as i've stated before. jordan did not take the spot of any young allstar sg's. kobe had eddie jones( a young allstar) sitting in front of him. aint no way some snot nose kid from high school is about to be given the starting job over a proven allstar nba player.

/thread
stop with this bad logic.

You missed the whole point dumb fukk

Being injured took 65 games off his career and retiring took 147 off his career

He would of got to 30k in LESS games that he did if he didn't miss that time
You are wording it wrong. If Jordan didn't retire or get injured he would have scored 30k in less games than he did. Playing more games in your prime = more points.

Holy shyt you are fukking retarded. He would have got it at a younger age not in less games. They dont count the games you missed. I could only imagine how hard learning must have been when your father wasnt there to help you :damn:
He would have gotten it in less games.

He would have averaged more points in those games that he missed than what he averaged with the Wizards.

I am psychic. I knew that this thread would be made the moment they showed the graphic about the games it took each player to get to 30,000. Beyond that I don't even have to read through this thread to know what was said.

Kobe was held back by Shaq
Mike played 3 years on college and retired at 30 he coulda had way more points
Kobe had to be Mike and Scottie
Look at Mike's shooting percentage
Kobe won without a top 50 player
Mike won without a dominant big man
:umad:
:angry:

That about cover it?

Yea cause you know...every player that's played for 17 years have 30k

Idiotic

still not making any sense, a player of his caliber or durant/lebron playing 17 years = expected to put up points.
was anyone shocked when malone did it?
are people amazed at the fact that it took him less games than kobe and was averaging more points when he reached 30k?
there are very few players in the league that can sustain pt production for that long. that's why nobody cares about juwan howard's total points, he doesnt have the expectations lebron/kd/kobe have.

so how is anyone frustrated? people are sitting there feeling actual frustration?
like the same frustration your english teachers faced grading your papers?
not really, bros.

the truth is, that was said with kobe too. when he had nobodies as teammates(kwame, cook, luke walton, smush parker).

IF YOUR TEAM sucks and you are a mega scorer. people will give you the ball and get the hell out of your way. it isnt like someone else could or would score on any consistent basis.

the other reason you rarely heard this with kobe under pjax is for 2 reasons.

reason #1 . shaq was kobe's teammates. mj never had to pass it to a monster int he paint that could score at a better efficiency rating them himself. So again. give the ball to mike and get out of the way.

reason #2 . kobe in the triangle was not setup to be jordan. he was setup to be jordan and pippen with the lakers. since the lakers never had a good enough facilitator(legit pg with passing skills or point forward like pippen). kobe has always had to wear 2 hats at once. be jordan and get the team involved and into the offense.

you never heard "jordan needs to get his teammates involved." once pippen came to town and grew up to take on the point forward duties. jordan's job immediately became SCORE and SCORE some more. only pass it if they completely jump you.

....is that why Jordan averaged more assists per game than kobe has thru 2012?
