Kobe's 01 series. 33.3/7/7/1.5

just one gm.

[ISHGoat]

Cant go wrong with either of Lebron's finals. Probably the 2013 finals since he played slightly better and they won the chip.

[Jameerthefear]

Lebron's game 7

[ShawkFactory]

Kobe. Or mabye westbrook.

[riseagainst]

obviously Kobe. Look at that domination.

[dhsilv]

Hmm so Westbrook, 08 kobe and of course 08 chris paul look to be the top guys. Interesting. I guess we gotta give shaq some credit as well.

[La Frescobaldi]

gotta be Shaq.

[WayOfWade]

If we're going by one game, easily LeBron in game 7, what game could possibly be bigger than that?
If we're talking about an entire series, probably Kobe in 01' as someone said, a personal favorite of mine, Zach Randolf in 11'

Dirk in 06 was better than both. That was a much better spurs team and dirk didn't have the spurs defensive attention like kobe did. Though Randolf is a good choice. He played great that series, but an injured manu kinda takes some of the luster off it.

How did I know this thread would have to do with Kobe? Oh Magic32 made it that's why...pathetic ****ing mongoloid...get a life.

What? It's about Westbrook and Chris Paul and Shaq. Where do you see Kobe in this one :)

LeBron game 7

[warriorfan]

If you notice LeBron was only able to do damage to the extremely old Spurs


Kobe's were more impressive because he was getting it done 10 years earlier while the Spurs were still in their prime



We saw what type of performances LeBron put up when the Spurs were still in their prime in 2007...he got his shit pushed in

Curry sucked against the "old" Spurs in 2013

What years did Kobe do it to the spurs prime?

[raiderfan19]

And amare avged 37 a game in the 05 series against them

[raiderfan19]

Be clear this only includes wins. Several people have had bigger games

[SouBeachTalents]

Easily the most underrated series of the 2000's. He beasted against a prime Duncan

lol@ kobe having 4 of the top 5 spots


and some people still have duncan above him

Amare outplayed Duncan head to head ... I guess he is better..

Probably the worst and at the same most hilarious thing about you...is that you actually think you know something about basketball. I guess when you are a 30-year-old or so man-child who has been supported his whole life...delusions are the norm.

[HOoopCityJones]

No, Duncan is just over rated, outplayed by most of his competition head-to-head. Talking bigs like Webber, Dirk and especially KG. Shaq and Kobe have the edge in most of their legendary match ups in the playoffs. Except no one wants to talk about Tim's shortcomings, oh no.

Just Kobe, Lebron and Shaq's. Specifically in that order.

Anyway, the best single game was probably Kobe's 42 point game in 2004 and his 39 points in 2008 (capping off one of his best series).

Lebron's game 7 is top 5 at best.

WTF are you talking about you ignorant SOB? The old Spurs has been a way better TEAM even though Duncan Parker and Ginobili are older now. They are breaking records left and right the last several years. This is also proven by their domination of the Warriors in the Playoffs of 2016

[aj1987]

LeBron's G7, quite easily. 37/12/4/2 on 70% TS and a dagger to win the series. :bowdown:

[raprap]

Frobe was a beast. I'd still give the edge to Bron on this one tho. The stage was set for him to shine in that game 7 and he didn't disappoint.

According to those stats, it is David West. 38/14/5/2/5 off 64% shooting.

[keep-itreal]

Kobe is the greatest spurs killer ever.

Torches the team every time they meet

Yep. Old (and cheap) Duncan and Manu are not much of a fall-off from prime versions - they still contribute in so many ways (especially for their salary) and the talent around them is SO MUCH better now (and that's possible only because of their salaries).

[FKAri]

According to that list (statistics only), it's either Westbrook or David West.

Interesting talk.

Amare got mentioned coz of huge numbers? Duncan was recovering from an injury in that post-season and Spurs let Amare have his numbers and shut all other. The series won by Spurs in 5 games. If Love averages that kinda ppg in a 1-4 loss against some other guy (meaning not hated by Kobe-stans), he'd be getting crucified for "empty numbers".

Kobe in 2001 series looks like a good mention but Duncan's 2nd banana in that season Derek Anderson (only 15+ ppg Spur other than Duncan) was injured and Kobe was going up against bunch of old, washed-up perimeter players.

I'd say it's Dirk's performance in 2006 or Kobe's performance in 2008. LeBron's performance in 2013 is a good mention as well.

[Dresta]

If we're just talking single game performances, then Wade's game 4 in 2013 is up there: 32/6/4 6 steals and zero turnovers, 6 in a championship-saving game.

Pretty impressive considering his health at the time tbh. Obviously Bron's game 7 is also up there - can't ignore the importance of a great NBA finals game 7 performance.

If we are talking a full series...Lebron in 13 wasn't good enough probably as he struggled for large stretches before the end of game 6 and game 7.

Kobe's was great, but the 08 Spurs were not a very good team with an injured Manu in that series.

Dirk's in 06 probably deserves the nod here because the Spurs were the best team out of the 3 mentioned by you....especially with a road game 7 win on 37/15 68% TS

[G-Funk]

Kobe has 4 in the top 5!!!? :eek:

[Replay32]

Kobe owns the Spurs.

Lucky game
