Kobe played in 37 Finals games, 7 Finals, and averaged 25.3 points in those games...
His Finals career high was 40 points. He had 13 career 30-point Finals games, and that one 40-point Finals game...
Just for charity's sake, how does that stack up with All-Timers who played in at least 3 Finals, and 18 Finals games (half Kobe's work)?
Finals PPG (Finals appearances)
Mike 33.6 (6)
West 30.5 (9)
Durant 30.3 (4)
Shaq 28.8 (6)
LeBron 28.4 (10)
Pettit 28.4 (4)
Dream 27.5 (3)
Steph 27.3 (6)
Baylor 26.4 (8)
Erving 25.5 (4)
Kobe 25.3 (7)
Among All-Time great players who played in at least 3 Finals, Kobe doesn't even have a Top 10 scoring average...

That Twitter thread is weird, and is an encapsulation of the overrating of Kobe Bryant. He was a great scorer but the vast majority of his scoring achievements, 99%, are related to his regular season exploits. Too many guys turned their scoring up more often, and to a higher peak, in the postseason than Kobe did. That isn't an opinion. It actually happened...
Kobe's in the class of All-Time scorers who had their moments but their Greatest Hits are almost entirely regular season related (Wilt, Harden, etc)...
There is no unequivocal, airtight case for Kobe as a greater or more deadly scorer than Bron, Mike, Durant, Steph, Hondo, Baylor, or West. More arguable over Dr J and Wade. And I'm only naming GOAT-level perimeter scorers, I left all the GOAT scoring bigs off my list..
This would be a great topic in another thread on a board that wasn't clearly slanted with Kobe bias

Don't be in your feelings fam. Even your posts I disagree with, many of em I find funny as hell. You're a funny guy, in this sense I mean it in a good way. Some posts I laugh because you get on some ridiculous shyt, but other posts I may disagree with but you're hilarious as fukk. Don't take it personal...@murksiderock U BEEN SLICK LAUGH DAPPIN MY POSTS LATELY BRUH

The '07 Cavs would've been the 6-seed that year out west. Spurs likely would've swept em first round because they did it in The Finals, but who else? Not that Mavs team that choked. Nobody else was sweeping them...
Not much to bicker on that point though, LeBron never even lost a Rd1 series until he was 18 years in, and it's the only Rd1 series he ever lost. There's no evidence anybody from anywhere was beating a Young LeBron in a Rd1 series...
DONT ANSWER A QUESTION WIT A QUESTION .. SET THE TERMS N LETS GET IT CRACKIN FAGOT

BUT YEA, CLEVELAND WOULDA FACED SPURS IN THE FIRST ROUND THAT YEAR IF WE BASIN IT ON RECORDS

KOBE FOCUSED ON MAKING HIS ENTIRE TEAM BETTER COME PLAYOFFS.. NOT JUST HIS STATS
THATS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HIM N LEBRON
Permanent ban bet. If I'm not white you never post on this site again.
If I am then I won't post again
WHAT PROOF ARE U WILLIN TO OFFER
SOCIAL MEDIA?
HAND PIC OR PAYIN SOMEONE TO HOLD UP A SIGN AINT GONE WORK
I'd link a trustworthy mod my socials. I'm not about to out my real life socials to a random white boy on the internet.. but if there's a mod out there who is gonna be trustworthy I 1000% would.
And then you're gone for good

"Passive aggressive". Okay
you another one of these dudes who need to log off...You singled out LeBron when LeBron ain't the only guy with stronger Finals production. Why is Kobe trailing so many other guys not named LeBron?

Weak argument when we all know rings aren't all created equal. If they were we'd rank Pippen and Havlicek and many others higher, not to mention Kobe. But we don't because most basketball heads understand just as important as the total ring count, is how many of those rings were you the team's best player...Kobe ain’t trailing in rings though
We not gonna sit up here and pretend we don't recognize that being the best player on championship teams is what separates the true GOATs from the Pippens and Havliceks and Wades, etc...
Of all those guys with greater scoring production in The Finals, how many rings did these guys win as a #1?
(6) Mike
(5) Mikan
(4) LeBron
(3) Shaq, Kareem
(2) Durant, Hakeem, Steph, Kobe
(1) Pettit, Havlicek
Even by that standard Kobe wouldn't be considered a Top 5 scorer; what is the differentiator between Kobe and all the other guys who won 2 as a #1: Durant, Hakeem, or Steph?
