For every 20fga, Kobe shoots 45% and Lebron shoots 50%, a difference of 1 fgm

[rule1223]

per game career wise, now consider how many times kobe has shot a bailout shot that lebron wouldnt even dare attempt, plus the amount of garbage buckets that lebron gets each game after its a blowout and it shows you how deceiving fg% and efficiency really is

[moe94]

Kobe never scored in garbage time and LeBron never chucked. Fascinating.

Never? I find that hard to believe

also how many times has LeBron just sat around and wasted the shot clock then kicked it out and forced someone to take a contested jumper to protect his FG%?

Peyton Manning of the NBA. gets pretty stats but can't win when defenses tighten up.

THE TRUTH

[GODbe]

:applause: . Not to mention one only shoots epic fadeaways and the other only lays it up and dunks. If LeBald took the shots Kobe takes regularly he'd be sitting in the 20-30% range max.

Go ahead and leave it here.

Why don't you watch the 2014 finals when he was kicking it to a COVERED Bosh for a contested 3 pointer as the shot clock expired. He's a beta, deal with it.

Hasnt this myth been debunked already?



The reason Lebron shoots so much higher than Kobe is because gets to the painted area and converts at a much higher rate. Plus has the common sense to pass to open teammates. Now that he is a respectable shooter especially from 3, Kobe or any guard in the league really has no chance.

Because it is so easy to lay it in with 2 or 3 guys in front of you.

That's actually a pretty good pic of LeBron. Nice find.

Everyone goes bald. I don't get why you make fun of that to be honest. It's also kind of karma. I hope it doesn't happen to any of you that quickly, but seriously it's apart of life for men.

I don't see OP posting any real data. Prove it.

I am fully bald though. It is hilarious when men cling to their hair instead of manning up and just shaving that shit

Does anyone have charts/stats for previous years?

I want to see if this Kobe bailout argument really holds water.

all this tells me is lebron dribbles out the shot clock before taking his shot

[Fork]

Lebron > Kobe

[no pun intended]

For every final attempts, Kobe wins 71% and LeBron wins 40%, a difference of 31% winning percentage.

2/5

I wasn't saying you, bud just people in general. That's all. Beyond the fact the LeBron hairline jokes was played out by 2011. It's like almost as bad as the continued Kobe rape jokes that haven't been relevant since maybe 2004 or 2005. That's cool, his isn't bad enough where it needs to be shaved. This isn't as bad as Carlos Boozer situation where the ninja colored his full head with a sharpie. Obviously it's a point of insecurity for a lot of dudes.

And if the chart showed the opposite you would say that LeBron is afraid to shoot late in the clock or something.

Also, I'm wondering how many of you actually watch the NBA. LeBron doesn't play anything like this top of the key overdribbler some of you make him out to be. He did in Cleveland at times. But now? Not at all.

adorable lol

:oldlol: You are right. Kobe has never attempted a layup or dunk, and Lebron has never taken a shot outside of the paint in his 11 year career. :applause:
