At least 6 rings, and very possibly 7. Pierce wouldn't sabotage the 2004 Finals out of petty jealousy, nor would he chase Shaq out of town. There's also the fact that Pierce has always been a much better closer than Kobe, especially during the playoffs.

Pierce 2004 Playoffs vs Indiana (a worse defense than Detroit)
20.8 ppg on 34% shooting
please.
He's an inferior player to Kobe....a sub-20 career PER, Peak PER 23.6, 20 ppg career Playoff average with 42% from the field, last time he averaged 20 ppg for a season was age 31 in 09...

Pierce better defender, better career 3pt%, better career eFG%, far more clutch.
Its close tho if you have a team bc Kobe has an uncanny ability to end up with HOF bigs, but overall give me Pierce. Just more consistent, reliable.

42% in the Playoffs, 17.5 Career PER in POs, 3 Playoff runs with a 20+ PER vs 9 for Kobe
Kobe has more 25+ ppg seasons post-30 than Pierce entire career :oldlol:
Kobe better in almost every statistic :oldlol:
Someone who shoots below 40% 4 times in the Playoffs for their career can not be considered clutch, period.
