What would peak Kobe's stats be in this record shattering banned defense era?

[hiphopanonymous]

The guy put up a 60 point game in his final career game and chalked up an 81 pointer in his heyday before defenses were even fully banned.

How would he do in this era? Remember this is the era where triple doubles or averaging 40 points aren't even special anymore. Teams regularly score 150+ in regulation. With all that said, how much would his stats be boosted with today's pace and lack of defensive pressure?

So not only would prime Kobe be putting up more FG attempts in this current era due to pace than he has ever put up before (cause you all know he ain't passing), but he would also be making those shots at a higher FG% and efficiency due to lack of defensive pressure.

MORE attempts for Kobe + HIGHER efficiency for Kobe = records being shattered left and right. I honestly think he would be putting up 45-50 PPG. And winning, unlike Harden.

Wilt's 100 point game would be in serious jeopardy. Peak Bean would give a defense today, 101.

Never underestimate his chucking ability. The GOAT chucker.

[FKAri]

Easily 45-50+ FGAs. Pau would have the all-time rebounding total in his sights.

[SouBeachTalents]

I would've loved to see Kobe, Wade & T-Mac in this era

42 ppg

maybe more on a really bad team... efficiency wouldn't be the very top tier, but not far off... 55-58% true shooting.

I'm sure there were entire quarters during the 05-07 era where Kobe was the only player to take a shot, and that's when the Lakers were playing at an incredibly slow pace in an era where they were adjusting to the new rules and we still played legitimate big men at the 4 & 5. I'd be interested to see Kobe with four shooters to space the floor for him.

2016 Kobe: 17, 3, 2, 35%, 25% 3pt

[stalkerforlife]

On his team with Kwame and those boys?

45 a game.

But if he had a squad, he'd never destroy the potential of his team with Harden ball.

[bigkingsfan]

Lower than Harden, people act like 2006 wasn't an inflated scoring year.

Wow Lebron @ only 21yo :bowdown:

[Keno]

probably 35 ppg on like 40 shots. knowing kobe, his entire team would want to be traded by all star break. cancerous black hole play style that no one likes.

[Turbo Slayer]

Kobe missed 14,481 field goals!

[ImKobe]

Wow Lebron @ only 21yo :bowdown:

21 to start the year, and he was playing 42.5 minutes per game, which translates to 26.5 ppg if we adjust to 36 minutes. Doncic at age 20/21 is averaging 29.3 ppg in just 32 minutes per game which is 32.8 ppg per 36 minutes.

Giannis right now is averaging 31.7 ppg in just 31.2 minutes per game, that's 36.5 ppg per 36 minutes.

Kobe averaged 35.4 ppg in 41 mpg or 31.1 ppg per 36 minutes, which is basically the same as Lebron's 2006 average in 42.5. :bowdown:
