Kobe Bryant has the 3rd leading PPG all time as a #1 option

[kennethgriffin]

1992-93 Orlando magic

Nick Anderson - 16.8 fga
Shaquille O'Neal - 16.1 fga

not nearly big enough of a gap to exclude that season from shaqs seasons

especially since shaq attempted 9 fta's per game to andersons 5 per game

which adjusts shaqs overall fga's from 16.1 to 20.6 fga's per game

andersons 16.8 to 19.3 fga's per game

Kenneth Griffin embarrassing himself as usual

And lol @

"this is why career averages favor guys who are drafted to bad teams. and shouldnt be used in all time rankings."

How about ring count? Doesn't that favor guys drafted to GOOD teams? You know, you guys and your constant "5 rings" bullsh!t. The standard response to EVERYTHING

allow me to re introduce myself my name is OH




total free throw attempts is invalid since 1 free throw does not equal 1 shot

2 free throws equal 1 shot

like my equation in the shaq vs anderson total shots. i took total free throws per game and devided by 2. then added to total fga's

in 2001

kobe 8.2 divided by 2 = 4.1

22.2 + 4.1 = 26.3

shaq 13.1 divided by 2 = 6.5

19.2 + 6.5 = 25.7

---------------------------------

in 2002

kobe 7.4 divided by 2 = 3.7

20 + 3.7 = 23.7

shaq 10.7 divided by 2 = 5.3

18.3 + 5.3 = 23.6

You sound like ESPN always with a criteria. You can also say that Kobe became the man during his prime, unlike players like Lebron and Jordan that became the man while rookies.

what criteria?

field goal attempts per game?

field goal attempts per game + adjusted free throws?


this isnt like espns made up bs to make someone look like the #1 option


kobe was the #1 option

shaqs minor advantages in ppg were due to shooting 2 foot layups and dunks all game. higher efficiency

shaq was more efficient. but kobe was the #1 option since 2001

Most "real" superstars aren't complete and utter **** when coming into the league, just like your boy.

[kennethgriffin]

I said 93-94 since nick anderson shot more than shaq in his rookie year. I'm using your own logic.

not with his adjusted fga+ free throw to field goal conversion

shaq took more shots per game.. they just didnt record them

[Breezy]

#2 Wilt Chamberlain ( 30.07ppg )

That number is wrong. Going by your criteria. Wilt never lead a team in FGA after the 65-66 season. Also Jerry west only led his team in FGA in 4 seasons and his average for just those seasons is 29.9ppg

...Also if you are going to go so far out of your way to find specific things to elevate Kobe why don't you just say we should judge players based on the number of 81 point games.

Kobe is a ****ing amazing player, top 10 all time. He doesn't need this ridiculous number juggling for people to see it.
