    Default God Mode

    In my life, I've witnessed the following players go into God mode:

    Larry Bird - 1986, 1987
    Michael Jordan - 1991, 1992, 1993 and other random stretches in his career
    Hakeem - 1994, 1995
    Shaq - 2001 playoffs
    Dirk - 2011 playoffs

    And I suppose Kobe during that crazy scoring streak in '06.

    Shaq in 2000 & Duncan in '03 went God mode as well

    I've seen Lebron do it for a couple games here and there in the playoffs but honestly never for a whole series (mainly because he couldn't but sometimes because his team didn't need it)

    LeBron did that one game in 2012. Or was it Devil Mode?

    LeBron was a beast in the '09 & '12 playoffs

    Stephen Curry's first six games this season has to be up there. I'm no fanboy, but that shit was an apotheosis.

    He was honestly a beast in 2011 too...until the finals. Problem is sometimes his jumper is way off and it throws his entire game out of whack.

    2012 playoffs Lebron: 30-9-5 led all players in points, rebounds win shares. One all-time game against Boston, another amazing game against Indiana. 28-10-7 in the Finals. It's on par with everyone except MJ and Shaq statistically IMO, although Hakeem and Duncan did bigger carry jobs (though Bosh was hurt for much of the playoffs).

    Kobe's greatest god mode moment was the first three rounds of the 2008 playoffs.

    I would take it over anything he did in 2006 or 2007.

    He was incredible for sure. Hard to keep it up against Boston with how they played in the Finals (though Kobe played well). Would've been impressive to see him finish that playoffs out. Take it from a Lebron fan (2011 ).

    Props to Kobe.

    edit: OP: Hakeem 1995 was playoffs, not the whole year, and 1990 MJ should make it
