[kennethgriffin]

[KingPush]

22 ppg probably. thats if he fully recovers from his achilles

[Nikola_]

39/31/81 20/5/4

[Warfan]

Not sure but he'll probably put up the most shots in the league

#Kareem
#Shook

[kennethgriffin]

22 ppg probably. thats if he fully recovers from his achilles


wait... so a fully healthy kobe 100% back = 22 ppg?


damn and all this time we were watching 125-150% kobe

:confusedshrug:

[fpliii]

We need a coach. Shit.

[SpecialQue]

I was going to reply with "how many first round exits?" but then I realized that we'll be lucky if the Lakers even get into the playoffs.

[Genaro]

I would say something like 27/6/4 in 34 MPG.

I hope Kobe takes it easy this time around. In his last comeback, he was trying to hard...forcing things too much, which resulted in some HORRIBLE TOs. He has to know what his new limitations are and work around it.

He's never going to be the scoring machine he once was...so now he has to become a distributor/leader.

I'm hoping he can be what Fisher was to the Lakers during their championships.

[kennethgriffin]

this... but he could average 35ppg if he wanted

[dubeta]

Kobe is a 25 ppg scorer at 45%, that is kobe at his best

as the points go up, the fg% goes down and vice versa

So if he averages 30 he would shoot 35% and if he averages 17 he could shoot 50%

[Jameerthefear]

17/4/3 on 41%

[KingPush]

17/4/3 on 41%
this. Nick Young has a better season than him tbh

lol kobe takes tough shots whether he takes 20 shots or 30 shots.

his looks wont change. in reality the more he shoots the more rhythm he will have cause hes a streak shooter when hes hot

so i say he hovers around 44-45% no matter what he decides

its not like his 27ppg a year ago before the achilles injury was off good looks or easy opportunities... hes a natural playstation scorer

his pump fakes and footwork never fail him when hes healthy

[Nash]

39 points on 21%

[SupermanOnSteroids]

bout 350

[Beastmode88]

Gonna be interesting with Kobe and Nick Young on the court. Double Shaqtin' A Fool moments opportunities from 1 game? Maybe I'll watch a lakers game here and there. :lol :lol

Also: Probably 25 PPG on 36 percent shooting.

So he will be the same at the age of 36 after 2 years of age and 2 huge injuries?

Any kobe stan expecting more than 18-19 points on 40% shooting is going to be severely let down

[zoom17]

when are the lakers getting a coach though?

[ArbitraryWater]

this... but he could average 35ppg if he wanted

On what percentage?

[MVBallin2K]

Ironically for now, Kobe and Lebron have switch situations.

Kobe was the one on a team filled with skilled players surrounding him he could feed off of. While I don't buy into Lebron had NO help period, he had a lot of good roleplayers but no one he could feed off of in Cleveland.

Fast forward and Lebron has a really great team surrounding him in Cleveland while Kobe has nothing more than good roleplayers. The difference and the problem is that Kobe is inching closer towards retirement. Kobe is Kobe and he's going to try to do EVERYTHING for this team without a lot of help. Virtually, we're potentially going to get 2006 Kobe attempting to be that guy in 2014.

[PP34Deuce]

Kobe is 20ppg in his sleep.

22 6 5 on 47%

[longtime lurker]

I Kobe plays 35 minutes a game they'll be holding him a funeral by allstar break.

[Calabis]

35?

38?

assuming he plays 35 minutes+

35?

He'll either start the season like shit and everyone will bump this thread. Then he'll improve and finish on ~25PPG @ 44%. Griff will then bump at the end saying "I told you so, don't doubt GAWDbe etc" and everyone else says "whatever, no playoffs"

Or, he'll start the season well, Griff will bump the thread saying the above. He'll then have a slump and finish on ~20PPG on 40%. Everyone will bump saying "I told you so, he's done etc" and Griff will have a meltdown.

And Griff, you can't be serious saying Kobe can average 35 now. He's only averaged 30 or above 3 times in his career, and he last did that about 8 years ago. He'll be lucky to be in the top 10 scorers, even with the Lakers festering in irrelevancy.

[J.101]

Anything over 25 I'd be very surprised about unless its on terrible percentages and he straight guns for Kareem's record

[LA Lakers]

Well, if this is another tank season for the Lakers which is what its looking like, then he will probably go into **** it mode and probably start putting up 40 a night. It's not just that elusive 6th ring. Kobe wants Kareems' scoring record, too. We all know that.
