As soon as his athleticism faded, he wasn't able to hit those same shots.
He didn't really have a good off-ball offensive game like a Michael or a LeBron

How do you explain LeBron putting up better numbers without a shred of an outside shot? Insane off-ball game. Mad cutz. As soon as Kobe's ability to get separation on his shots faded, his %s PLUMMETED. This reigned true for all forms of his jump shooting.. In the post, off the ball pindown screens for open shots, spot up shooting... Kobe's whole game is revolved around shooting, and too much at that.
LeBron has shown a versatile offensive game that still produces despite clear flaws (Inconsistent jump shot).. His bigman evolution is something Kobe never developed. Kobe could never play the roll man like LeBron is doing now.
Kobe's off-ball game was way too jump shooting focused. Even his cuts usually turned into pull up jumpers
He just didn't have the size/strength to have a more versatile off-ball game that isn't dependent on Jump shooting ability and getting separation for that.

Kobe HAD to rely on his shooting because he lacked the inside game of a Jordan/LeBron/Shaq

What you trying to say, Ballin?
He should have won more championships and didn't reach his full potential?

Not really, the last four years meant jack shit for his career if you ask me, changed nothing. Only game that mattered was his last one. Don't know why he has got so much attention on this board for the last couple years.
Insecure Lebron stans and typical attention seeking Laker fans making a whole lot outta nothing. Now he has retired I would have thought it would have stopped.
