okay so im not talking about rings, or finals performances or rape accusations or team moving
Just shooting.
Now alot of people mention lebrons FG% against kobe but i still feel like kobe is the better shooter.
Kobe's one man contested turn around jumper > lebrons open mid range jumper.

LeBron
- Better in the paint shooter
- better 3 point shooter
Kobe
- Better mid range
Overall its LeBron
Also consider mid range is the most inefficient shot in the court in terms of point per shot, so kobe's advantage is not even a strong one

Lebron has turned himself into a good shooter, but kobe is still certainly a better shooter.

Lebron obviously. Better field goal percentage and 3 point percentage. This isn't a fair question in all honesty. Kobe should be compared with someone closer to his class, like Iverson.

Kobe overall, LeBron has become a beast at threes though

Lebron of course. He shoots above 50% on his Field Goals and makes sure to only shoot three 3's a game. So he's the better long range shooter too.

Last season:
Lebron 0.385 from 3
Kobe 0.188
Lebron is over 2 times the shooter Kobr is.

Lebron takes no where near the amount of contested 3 point shots that kobe does though.
Yes lebron has better shot selection (which improves his FG%) but doesnt neccessarily mean hes the better shooter.

What a weak justification. :lol No one in NBA history takes as many dumb contested shots as Kobe does. Does that make him the GOAT shooter? :hammerhead:

Can someone bring up their Finals Game 7 shooting stats?
Shooting under the highest pressure imagined is the most accurate method of comparing them
Anyone have them??

is this a trick question?
what has this site become...
kobe is the better shooter but by just a hair. lebron is the better 3 point shooter tho and lebron is the better overall scorer.

Kobe not even close..
Lebron is being dare to shoot wide open jumpers because he can't shoot but he improve his jumpshot after his embarrassing 2013 finals
Lebron has become a bit better from the 3PT line & is much better in the paint, Kobe was a bit better from midrange perhaps, gotta give the edge to Lebron overall, especially if you compare their shooting at this very day.

Kobe imo. He just takes a ton of stupid ass shots. It makes it even worse cause his bball IQ is sky high. It's completely idiotic. The only time I was ok with it was before they got Bynum and Gasol and Odom and after Shaq got shafted. That 1 or 2 year window when they sucked ass. I guess his fans love it though. Tough shots look better than making a pass to an open man who can knock down the easy shot.
