Skinny unathletic soccer player Nash won more MVPs than “greatest player of all time” Kobe during Kobe’s prime. Address that without deflecting to Lebron…SO NASH WAS BETTER THAN BRON WHEN HE AVERAGED 31.3 PPG?

He got more than the "greatest" center of all-time too. What exactly is your point

Kobe took difficult shots instead of differing to teamamtes to protect his FGP liek LeBozo
Kobe "sacrificed" by taking more shots but making fewer of them.
NO ONE believes that shyt breh. Not even you.
Breh a 20yo Bron not even in his prime averaged 31.4ppg that same year on 4 fewer shots a game and went deeper in the playoffs too.
LeBron was 21 in 05-06
Flip Murray and Drew Gooden aren't carrying the Cavs to a title no matter how many "stats Bron sacrifices". That's why your argument is stupid as fukk.
Wait, are you saying that regular season output is meaningless and you need a balanced squad to win?
I guess Kobe's 35ppg season and 81point game were meaningless too. Breh, you just invalidated 90% of Kobestans arguments for him.
Take out meaningless regular season games and Kobe Bryant is just Dwayne Wade with more seasons next to Shaq.

deferred to teammates to protect his FGP his entire career and is still gonna finish #1 in points
Amazing that Bron somehow protects his FG% and still scores 3,000 more points than Kobe in the same # of games.
LeBron was 20 when the '05-'06 season started. It was just his 3rd season in the league and yet he averaged 31.4ppg on 50% shooting and took the champ Pistons to 7 in the ECSF despite Iglauskas putting up 10ppg as his #2 option.
What did Kobe do in his 3rd season? 19.9ppg on 46.7% shooting? 26.7% from 3pt (goddamn that's bad). Didn't even have to be the main guy and still got swept by 2nd-year Tim Duncan in the WCSF while averaging just 21ppg on 44% shooting?

It's a little different. The Boston Celtics were closer to the 2000s Detroit Pistons than to what Bron did.
But carry on.

47% FG, 45% FG, 44% FG, 44% FG
One of these players is the GOAT shooter, one is a "chucker", one is the previous GOAT shooter and the last one has never been called a chucker despite shooting the same percentage.
These conversations have always been biased nonsense from bitter Bron stans. If you get 90% of your shots right next to the basket, you better have a higher field goal percentage. And in today's league, many players are obsessively monitoring their FG%. Are those guys better than Kobe? Hell no. If you're purposely checking your stats, seeing you're at 50% for the night, then choosing to only shoot layups and dunks for the rest of the night, that doesn't make you a better player. Nikkas were not obsessing over their percentages like that in 2005. T-Mac, Kobe, Pierce, Carter and Iverson could have easily did that. Also, upon researching this, most shooting guards don't shoot 50% consistently. They may have a few seasons but, its rare. They are all mostly in that 44% to 47% range. But of course, only one player is disparaged for this
