kobe bryant

1997-2002 - ( Dwyane Wade style slasher/mid range )
2003-2007 - ( Tracy Mcgrady style jump shooter/slasher/distance )
2008-2013 - ( Michael Jordan style foul drawing/ footwork/mid range/slasher/post game with tmac distance )
2014-? ( paul pierce hesitation/midrange/distance with jordan foul drawing/footwork )


lebron james

2004-? - ( jordan rules reffing,driving and wide open distance, nash system passing, rondo midrange shooting )


kobes evolved when he needs to add something or change something.

lebron hasnt changed his game at all except for the one small moment he tried posting up for one playoff run then forgot how a year later

this is why hes struggling this season. he should be changing his game into more of a 2nd option post up player and let a point guard handle the driving/penitration

lebrons too slow and unathletic and makes the wrong decision more than half the time to be bringing it up the court and bullying his way inside anymore. because hes not a bully anymore. any good sized small forward can keep up with him now..

ontop of his major styles. kobes added other little things on the side like some hakeem post moves, baylor back downs, magic johnson hook shots, dirk step backs and other tricks


kobe is a student of the game

lebrons too stubborn to learn anything new

Rondo midrange shooting? You cant help yourself can you?

shooting form = identical
number of attempts per game = identical
mid range percentage = equally bad
reputation = both bad
defenders sagging off both guys


i cant help but be accurate?

hes a good wide open three point shooter. i'l give him that much.

lebron james

2004 - 2010 (crazed good driving , magic style passing , good midrange shoting)
2010-2011 (develop wilt chamberlane style choking , develop obsessed girlfreind jealousy of dwade so he dont win final MVP)
2012-2013 (develop voodo power to injuring players, very good shoting , karl malone style posting shot and fg%)
2014 (develop gilberet arenas style falloff , worse to all aspects , post achilles kobe bryant style drive to the hoops, eddy curry style ahleticim)

Lebron evolved tremendously. He now has an effective back to the basket game. He is now an elite 3pt shooter. Better than Kobe has ever been and will be. Early on in his career he was known as a poor defender. He changed that and became one of the best perimeter defenders in the league, known for his chasedown blocks which are momentum changers. He has also become a much smarter player.

He will get it going again. I think he will finish the season with averages around 27/7/7 on 53/39/75

Somewhere around there.

Lebron evolved tremendously. He now has an effective back to the basket game.

He evolved, tremendously even, but his post game is mechanical and relies on shooters to clear the left block from defenders. He still can't fool people into buying his moves, he just uses/d his lift to get of weird turnarounds. He has no jump hook, leaners which are important for defenders to buy into fake to the basket on posts.

As a defender I'd take a fader by anyone not named Jordan anyday.

if defenders begged kobe to shoot beyond 18 feet. he'd also be shooting "elite" 3 point percentages

put 1-2 guys on lebron after stepping over midcourt and lebron doesnt come close to shooting great 3pt percentages.

its like jordans 3pt percentage career. he also shot wide open and his was still less than kobes shooting over 2 guys half the time.


you cant just look at %'s... the type of looks also plays into it

and lebron hasnt used his back to the basket game since 2012

hes still a poor on ball defender. he plays the passing lanes too much

lebron will finish the season averaging 25/6/6 on 46%


kobe will finish the season with 28/5/4 on 43%

This is where you go from being wrong...to trolling. Because nobody who has watched these guys would make that comparison. There is literally...no way...you are that ignorant and/or stupid. No number you could come across could overwhelm the years of watching these two play basketball to conclude that rondo and Lebron are similar midrange players.

Comparing Rondo and his step in uncontested 18 footers and Lebron wetting turnaround jumpers, fadeaways, pullups, and stepbacks makes as much sense as comparing Kobe and Lebrons outside shooting on nothing but the numbers.

you're too obsessed with lebron to be a mod

step down already weirdo

and i swear that first gif is the most awkward looking step back jumper i've ever seen in my life. and its still not a good example considering i've seen him do it maybe 5 times in his life


the 2nd gif is nearly equally as ugly

a mod really shouldnt go against a general consensus

even if you disagree and think lebron is a great midrange shooter and hits awkward looking step backs all day

( which he isnt/doesnt )

you should try and go more with what the world agrees on. and i'd say close to 99.9999% of non lebron slurpers agree that hes not a great midrange shooter


which means you slurp

and mods shouldnt do that

point is that he makes them often enough. it doesn't have to look good; two points is two points. he's not an all-time great for his midrange game, but he's good enough there that a comparison to Rondo's midrange is not to be taken seriously.

When you equate "not great" with Rondo...one of the worst and most reluctant shooting good guards ever...your argument is invalidated enough for reasonable readers of it to not take you serious.

Perhaps I give you too much credit. I generally assume "trolls" arent as stupid as the things they say...which is what makes it trolling.

You could just be an idiot I guess....but this would be beyond that. This would be...not watching basketball at all. And I struggle to accept that.

Though it would explain a lot of things.

Lebron shoots ~35% from the midrange(10-18 feet) for his whole career.

Rondo shoots 38% from midrange for his career.

Lebron really isnt a great midrange player.. he may turn a fancy fadeaway once in a while but hes most deadly from 3 and at the rim according to all of his shooting charts.

Teams have sagged off bran too.. not to the extent rondo did although it almost approached that level for the first 6 games of the '13 Finals. Regardless Lebron is not a good midrange player.. rondos actually better scoring from there.

You are worse poster than at least 5 people currently banned. If I were going to ban you for being awful or not thinking what I think you would hardly ever be unbanned. Hell id ban that name forever like the other 4 or so you have had banned permanently since 2008.

But generally even the "trolls" have personality....something that makes it obvious they are just having a good time...

Alphawolf...Mr.Jabbar. Adults having a laugh posting things I generally dont agree with. So they never hear from me. You though....you seem so serious that its hard to look the other way and assume you are just ****ing around.

I tell myself you are...but you keep on reiterating things to the point I have to conclude you arent joking...but stupid. I dont consider stupidity(well...ignorance is a better word) bannable if it isnt disruptive.

Spamming of your ignorant points of view....would be. You have not(lately) done enough of it to warrant my actually banning you.

Id rondo could score like Lebron from 22 to 10 feet he might be unstoppable.

You mention that teams sag off rondo even more than Lebron...and that it merely approached Rondo levels for 6 games....then mention that he has better numbers from there...as if the two arent connected.

Rondo shoots a midrange shot when he has to(and sometimes not even then...). Lebron faces up and makes contested midrange shots more in some games than Rondo will in a week. Hes had games making more tough midrange shots than Rondo would be willing to take early in the shot clock in a month. Some of them vs the Celtics(one quickly comes to mind).

There is no comparison.

Im gonna post this for the 3rd time:



Comparing Rondo and his step in uncontested 18 footers and Lebron wetting turnaround jumpers, fadeaways, pullups, and stepbacks makes as much sense as comparing Kobe and Lebrons outside shooting on nothing but the numbers.


Wait...let me say it again...slowly....

makes

as

much

as

comparing

Im gonna give a large print version as well for the extra slow students:


makes as much sense as comparing Kobe and Lebrons outside shooting on nothing but the numbers.


Meaning....I dont think its reasonable to compare Lebron vs Rondo numbers wise...its similar to comparing Kobe vs Lebron. Because Kobe and Lebron as shooters....is a ridiculous comparison because watching basketball makes it obvious Kobe wins that discussion regardless of the numbers.

Just as Lebron does compared to Rondo.

on

nothing

but

the

numbers.



Im gonna give a large print version as well for the extra slow students:


makes as much sense as comparing Kobe and Lebrons outside shooting on nothing but the numbers.


Meaning....I dont think its reasonable to compare Lebron vs Rondo numbers wise...its similar to comparing Kobe vs Lebron. Because Kobe and Lebron as shooters....is a ridiculous comparison because watching basketball makes it obvious Kobe wins that discussion regardless of the numbers.

Just as Lebron does compared to Rondo.

Should I get someone to come in and explain it with hand puppets?

you seem flustered

and before you ban me for "trolling"

you're doing this to yourself bud. all i did was post a shooting chart

Banning you for basketball opinions would be like putting a learning disabled kid in timeout for taking too long on homework.

My blood doesnt run that kind of cold.

It would be trolling if I didnt believe it...and I posted it to get a reaction to my dishonest opinions.

I absolutely do believe you are an idiot. So it doesnt meet my standard of trolling. Much like your opinions...which is why ive not banned you and dont intend to.

Pay attention homie.

I got a smile out of it.

This clearly isnt going anywhere and seems to have gone away from what little basketball discussion that was possible to begin with.

Assuming you have nothing else to say about basketball im gonna give you the last word before closing. You must have a good one liner in you. Now would be the time.

if a mod goes away from their duties and posts on a message board as a forum member with their same mod account and break forum regulations. shouldnt they be held to the same standard as everyone else. if they continue to bait/troll/provoke/insult people. they should be banned for however minimal amount of time is allowable


i think 3 days is good enough. anyone else want to vote on this?

i mean i've been banned dozens of times just for talking basketball. this dude is the one making it personal all the time.
