Where would Kobe 2003 rank in today's league

[BlackVVaves]

IMO '03 Kobe would be considered the best player in the league if he played in the league right now. This is the weakest era of bigs and weakest era of superstars compared to back then he was measured against prime Shaq/Duncan/KG as a guard, those were the only players who were better than him.

Scoring wise he trumps anyone. I don't think there's any players since prime Jordan that was as dynamic and creative, inside and out on offense. 2003 Kobe:
30 PPG
7 RPG
6 APG
2.2 SPG
0.8 BPG
57.1% TS (adjusted for league average)
23 double-doubles
5 triple-doubles
20 40+ point games

Did it in the greatest defensive era (1999-2004)

Did they lace your weed or something? Wtf is this shit? Adjusted for league average?

1. Kobe
2. Durant
3. Kawhi Leonard
4. Paul George
5. Westbrook

He'd be better than he was in 2003. That was before the rule changes opening it up for perimeter players.

Tied with Lebron, argument for best in the world.

It's funny because no one else writes "b|tch". Homie said he was lurking. hahaha

02/03 is probably my favourite version of Bryant. He's Top 3 at worst, no question IMO.

It would also depend on which team he was playing for. I'd think that would effect his ranking.

He's terrible at hiding it

Littledick McGee's back!

Depending on his team. He would be #1 for sure. If he was on a team like the 08 or 09 Lakers. He would be seen as better than Lebron or Durant.

I'm glad someone else noticed this. TS% is NOT an adjustable stat. Yet Kobestans like to just increase his stats because #KobeFace #DatKillerInstinct

No. It did the opposite. I don't get why people don't understand this.

A prime and healthy Kobe Bryant would certainly be a top three player in today's game, no question. It would be hard to place him above LeBron James, so LeBron would still be number one.

Many of the advanced statistics would favor by Kevin Durant against Kobe Bryant. However after just watching in this year's playoffs and the way that Kevin Durant struggled with physical defenses on him and was taking out of some by smaller players, I would choose Kobe Bryant over him because he is more difficult to guard and is also a far better defense of player.

So LeBron James one, Kobe Bryant two and Kevin Durant three. I'll place Anthony Davis fourth because I expect big things from this kid.

He'd be the best player in the game..
