NOTE: Shaq was better than Kobe in 2000-2002, and was the best player in the league, but people just dont give enough credit for Kobe's first 3 rings and act like he was a role player. These are the stats of the 1st round up to the Conference Finals from 2000-2002. Shaq is one of the greatest finals performers of Alltime and his finals numbers are incredible, but you need to get to the Finals first to win a championship, and the other 3 rounds matter too.

2000 Playoffs - First 3 Rounds
Kobe - 22.8 PPG, 4.4 RPG, 4.4 APG, .464 FG%
Shaq - 28.2 PPG, 15.0 RPG, 3.4 APG, .546 FG%

2001 Playoffs - First 3 Rounds
Kobe - 31.6 PPG, 7.0 RPG, 6.3 APG, .492 FG%
Shaq - 29.3 PPG, 15.3 RPG, 2.5 APG, .547 FG%

2002 Playoffs - First 3 Rounds
Kobe - 26.6 PPG, 5.8 RPG, 4.4 APG, .418 FG%
Shaq - 26.4 PPG, 12.7 RPG, 2.6 APG, .510 FG%

The 2000 scoring stats aren't correct for Shaq. His low series was 25.9 ppg vs Portland and in the other 2, he averaged 29.4 vs Sacramento and 30.2 vs Phoenix, respectively. Kobe was at 22.8 ppg through the first 3 rounds of 2000 as well.

But I agree, Kobe wasn't your typical number 2 at all. I rank him as a top 3 player in the league during '01 and '02, or at worst top 5, and the 2nd best player in the entire '01 playoffs.

2000 Kobe wasn't quite at that level yet, but around a top 10 player and his all around game at the time gets underrated by some. His on the ball defense was pretty much as good as any perimeter player that year, he had the scoring skills to probably average 25+ if he wanted to, but toned it down and fit well within the team concept. His length really seemed to bother point guards(who he often defended) and he committed himself fully to defense that season.

Well, why didn't he go ahead and post the Finals stats for Shaq and Kobe then? That's part of the Playoffs too right? I'm guessing that's where all of the heavy "carrying" for Shaq took place.

First 3 rounds of each 3 peat? How about you list the first 23 minutes of all the game 4's? :oldlol:

At the end of the day, Shaq: 3 FMVP's and Kobe: 0 FMVP's through that run.

Keeping it real, I haven’t been able to give Kobe credit (or the same credit) for LA's 2000-2002 championships as I've granted Shaq. Moreover, Shaq was the MDE in the league for those three seasons. Shaquille won an MVP during those three years, and IMO, was robbed another one. Additionally, Shaq was the NBA Finals MVP each time the Lakers made/won the Finals..and to boot, he was just about the only guy who showed up in the 2004 Finals.

As an outcome of those realities, it’s just too hard for me to say Bryant was the reason the Lakers won the title..or should get some sort of fifty-fifty credit. Of course he was a HUGE part of their winning, had a giant hand in it. At the end of the day, he just wasn't as dominant as Shaq. The numbers don't lie; however, the facts ALSO say that Kobe was possibly the greatest sidekick ever. IMHO, he shouldn’t even be considered a 'sidekick' (it’s irrational to do that to him).

my bad, I fixed Shaq's at 28.2 PPG, and fixed Kobe's too for '00

Kobe was Pippen to Shaq's Jordan.

I dont think anyone trys to detract from his importance to the team and they definitely wouldn't have won in 01 or 02 without him.

He was amazing in the 01 playoffs and had he not had a very sub-par game in G1 of the Finals they would have gone 16-0 that year which is just ridiculous.

G1 2001 Finalz Shaq : 44 / 20 / 5 | 61% shooting.
G1 2001 Finalz Kobe : 15 / 5 / 3 - 6Turnovers | 31% shooting.

The 2001 Lakers steam rolled and swept some really talented and stacked teams.

2001 Post Season PER
Shaquille Oneal : 28.7
Kobe Bryant : 25

Shaq is a Center and Kobe is a SG its not really a surprise that he would have more Assists.

Kobe leading the team in points by a very small margin means little to nothing when the opposing teams are focusing their defenses on stopping Shaq and he was still producing practically the same Volume as Kobe on far higher efficiency.

The difference in overall Production in 00 and 02 was just as large as the difference most years between Jordan and Pippen. Even in 01 the gap was still very large.

Not to mention Shaq was the teams defensive anchor and was 10x more impactful on that end of the floor.

Sorry but Kobe was never even remotely close to Shaq in terms of Production and Impact on that team or in overall contribution.

I'm not trying to put down Kobe but actually thinking his impact/production and contributions to the 01 and 02 lakers were anywhere close to Prime Shaqs is 100% retarded.

Also pretending that the Finals aren't a legitimate playoff series because your favorite player happened to play bad or play worse then another player on the same team is silly.

Leading the team points and assists through the First 3 rounds of the '01 and '02 playoffs is very impactful and there pretty close, and even when you factor in finals play Kobe is not that far away
and I never said that the Finals dont matter or isn't legitimate

Saying that the gap between Shaq and Kobe is the same gap as Jordan and Pippen is false, It was like a Kareem and Magic tandem in '01 and '02, of course Shaq was the better player though because of how they played in the Finals.

Shaq had far better Production in 5/6 Western Conference series in 01 and 02 while being the main focus of the opposing defenses and was the teams defensive anchor.

I dont see how you can say they were anywhere close to being equal's even if you completely remove the Finals.

I am not saying Kobe wasn't one of the best player in the league in 01 and 02 but Shaq was by far the best player in the entire league those years and he was far more important to the Lakers then Kobe was.

Then dont win without either one of them but the gap in Production in 00 and 02 was essentially the same between Pippen and Jordan so why should I view it differently?

Jordan wouldn't have won without Pippen
Shaq wouldn't have won with Kobe

Do you honestly believe Kobe was even close to Shaq 0ffensively from 00-02.

Even if you use TS% to account for FT's Shaq still has a dramatic edge in efficiency all 3 years in the WCFSeries.

So being equal in Volume but far less efficient is worse not better.

Then when you account for how defenses were defending each of them the comparison is no longer reasonable.

Agreed. :applause:

Shaq is far better statistically but even disregarding that.
Your completely ignoring the context of the way they were defended, ignoring the fact that Shaq had to deal with far more defensive attention/pressure and was also the defensive anchor to those teams and far more impactful on the defensive end of the floor.

Shaq/Kobe may have been closer then Jordan/Pippen but the gap was still quite large. Your highly underestimating the difference in Production, Impact and Value between the two.

It isn't that Kobe isn't great but its that 00-02 Shaq is arguably the GOAT. There is no reasonable way to say Kobe is close to him unless your trying to imply that 01-02 Kobe is somehow equal or on the same Tier as
Prime Shaq/Jordan/Kareem/Wilt

Kobe's Peak was great but it probably was more towards 09 then 01 and it doesn't belong in the same class as those players above.

Look, Shaq was better we all know that, but it isn't "not even close" at all

and lol @ you highlighting the rebounding difference between a SG and C, look at the difference in APG in 01, but anyways you need to stop severly underrating Kobe during those runs, 29/7/6 and 27/6/5 in '01 and '02 Playoffs and in the first 3 rounds leading the team in points and assists in '01 and '02 Playoffs (32/7/7 in '01), that is not a Pippen-Jordan gap, Pippen never even came close in PPG (it was always a 9.5-15.6 PPG difference in all 6 championships).

I dont know how you can expect people to take you seriously when you think scoring .2-1 points more a game while being significantly less efficient is somehow a reason to say that player is better.

But anyway... keep thinking it was close if it makes you happy but in reality it really wasnt.

Im sorry, Is Kobe not a good defender?
Kobe in 2000-2002 was one of the best perimeter defenders in the league
How about we factor in plays when the game is on the line, Kobe made 2 gamewinners in the playoffs (gm 2 vs '00 PHX and gm 3 vs '02 SA), he had the ball and was the playmaker with under 2 minutes to go
intangibiles? Kobe can do everything needed on the court

It is close, not that close, but close

Teams Shaq carried to a title without Kobe = 0

Teams Kobe carried to a title without Shaq = 2

Dispute it.

Shaq was MD of that era sure, but he was greatly helped to his FMVP's by the weak centers he had to play against in the finals. (Oh wait, old Dikimbe was there once right?)

Shaq played with Penny and led that team to zero titles. All shaq has is a 2nd bannana title with Wade, which many here consider to be better than Kobe. He tried with Nash, Pierce, Garnett, Allen, Stoudemire, no success. Shaq failed to lead team stacked with Kobe, Malone, and Payton to a title. But it's Kobe's status that is to be doubted?

Kareem > Shaq overall in basketball legacy.
