Same Melo who shot 43% like Kobe which was Kobe's 2nd worst shooting season.

Try again. You're about to strike out.

negro kobe is a career 43 percent shooter

Same Melo who shot 43% like Kobe which was Kobe's 2nd worst shooting season.

Try again. You're about to strike out.

let me help you out. Is Kobe definitively better at any of the following:


scoring? no.
passing? no.
rebounding? no.
defense? no.
shooting? no.







So what exactly makes Kobe a top 3 player like you stans claim, while Melo is a fringe top 10 guy?

 

[H.J.Duck]

One guy said it, calm down breh and Melo only shot when he was open, kobe was shooting fadeaways

Nah, let me react too.

 

[CantStop]

that is exactly what he's doing.

he wasn't playing like at all in 08.

Actually he was and was shooting WAY more. He was just scoring a little better even though his % was still bad. Dude is not an international player.

naah fakkit in 08 he did the same shyt...back then he wasnt flabby
so he got away with it

 

[skb1065]

brehs, we need in that slam dunk contest in H town

 

[Malta]

the truth

dude acting like hes playing los angeles, running to the pg and asking for the ball

wtf

i loved how they freezed him out in the 3rd
fukkin selfish fakkit..

He's pressing, I think he'll make the adjustment and play better, especially in the medal round. His game isn't really suited to play with a bunch of star players like that, but he'll adjust.

Yeah Kobe was chucking in 08, but he came thru during the gold medal game, thats all that matters

Dawg, just shut the fukk up. You were a shytty poster on SOHH and now you're one of the worst on the coli. Kobe is not a better passer than fukking Melo? Kobe is not a better scorer than Melo even though they both shot the same fukking % and Kobe's repertoire is more advanced than Melo? Kobe is not a better rebounder? Well, no sh!t, Kobe is about 4 inches shorter than 40 pounds lighter. Melo is a better defender?

 

[Brozay]

Westbrook or Dwill should be closing games as the 2 guard.

 

[Malcolmxxx_23]

scoring
assist
playmaking
defense
leadership
winning

breh, just shut the fukk up.

nikka said leadership

get the fukk out of here..dude aint a leader

Melo might have a game better suited for international play, mainly because you can put him at the 4, but Kobe is without question the better player, it's not really close either.

 

[Malcolmxxx_23]

he needs to focus on D
stay away from iso fadeaways
park his ass at the 3 point line and wait for the kick out

 

[HacksawJimThuggin]

No, Kobe is not a better passer than Melo.

No, Kobe is not a better scorer than Melo.

I never said Melo was a better defender, but the difference isn't definitive enough to make one guy a top 3 player like you delusional stans claim while Melo is usually ranked somewhere around 10ish

 

[mvp_status]

lol yea I didn't wanna be the one to say it but dude is wylin right now
