And Bron takes tough shots all the time. The difference between him and Kobe is that he takes the tough shots when he needs to, while Kobe takes the tough shots when guys are wide open. That's why you can have series where Shaq shoots 60% on single coverage while Kobe takes 40 more shots than him on 38% shooting. How the hell is that "taking the pressure off his teammates"? That's just selfishness. Outside of guys who are literally nothing but rim-runners and rebounders, if you have a game where you shot far worse than all your teammates, you were usually fukking up.
LOL - so why does Bron have 28 forty-point performances in the playoffs and Kobe only has 14?
Why does Bron average 29ppg in the playoffs and Kobe only averages 26ppg?
Why does Bron average 28ppg in the Finals and Kobe only averages 25ppg?
Kobe played selfishly and put up extra shots, as you admitted, and STILL didn't have the scoring that LeBron had. And that's all with Bron playing the more elite defenses more often (Pistons x3, Bulls x3, Spurs x3, Celtics x4, Pacers x3, Warriors x4) while Kobe was usually playing weak-ass defensive squads like the Suns, Jazz, Nuggets.
SO LEBRON MAKES HIS TEAMMATES BETTER AND KOBE MADE HIS TEAMMATES WORSE?
AGAIN, LEBRON IS ALL ABOUT PROTECTING HIS PERCENTAGES.. HE TAKES ON THE EASY SHOTS AND PUTS HIS TEAMMATES IN POSITIONS TO SCORE THE TOUGH SHOTS. IT MAKES HIM LOOK BETTER STATISTICALLY BUT HIS TEAMMATES SUFFER FOR IT
KOBE IS THE POLAR OPPOSITE.. HE EMBRACES THE CHALLENGE OF TAKING ON THE TOUGH SHOTS WHILE PUTTING HIS TEAMMATES IN THEIR SWEET SPOTS SO HE CAN SPOON FEED THEM IN THEIR COMFORT ZONE
REAL HEADS KNO WHAT TIME IT IS
DONT EVEN BRING UP SHAQ.. SHAQ WAS AN ALL-STAR THE YEAR BEFORE HE TEAMMED UP WIT BRON
BRON IS A BASKETBALL SUCCUBUS
EVERYONE WHO LEFT HIS CORNER HAS BEEN THRIVING THIS SEASON
IF KOBE PLAYED FOR STATS ALA BRON, HE COULD AVERAGE 40 POINTS ON BETTER PERCENTAGES.. BUT HIS TEAMMATES WOULD BE OUTA POSITION AND THE GAME WOULD BE MUCH HARDER FOR THEM, SO HE WOULDA HAVE TO SACRIFICE WINNING LIKE BRON DOES.. WE ALREADY SEEN PLAYERS LIKE BOSH N LOVE TALK ABOUT HOW HARD LEBRON MADE THE GAME FOR THEM. KOBE MADE THE GAME
EASIER FOR HIS TEAMMATES, WHICH MAKES IT HARDER ON HIMSELF.. THEREIN LIES THE DIFFERENCE
