LeBron stans have stopped making threads denigrating Kobe. Kobetards need to wise up.
I think so, since tpots is one of them. He's still much alive and kicking but he's gotten crazier as well since he stans chef dingo to death too.

Re: Westbrook and Lebron have cheapened the triple double.
The pace has weakened the significance of a triple double.
More possessions = more attempts at points, rebounds and assists (especially when considering there are more jumpshots now than before and 3pt fgs relative to all fgs which help guards getting long rebounds).

There's no Steven Adams to box out for Westbrook, yet he's still having nights of 14 rebounds and 14 assists.

Atleast Westbrook is less scared of missing shots. It comes off little more authentic than lebron's cheap, safe shot selection and play. Sweating they're ass off for those extra rebounds lol. Chasing greatness on a stat sheet... zero moves.
Luka Doncic also is better than MJ and Kobe according to his stats.
I will always judge by the eye test, i don't have a top 10 all time like you idiots. You guys keep judging by stats and media hype.
Luka Doncic is definitely better than Kobe.
You can see that with your eyes and on the stat sheet.

So your penalizing bron for taking smart efficient shots?
The only time i find it annoying with bron is when he hesitates to take last second prayers because he's thinking about his efficiency. Other than that i Don't any problems with taking smart shots

Big numbers obviously, that's his claim to greatness mostly.
Barely 4 rings in 18 prime healthy seasons creating superteams while getting media love only seen with MJ.
It's cool if he impresses you and his fans. But he aint Kobe. Never could be.
Kobe was basketball perfection, great competitor, winner. Not a stat clown.
Russel Westbrook found his triple double rythm again, but still loosing in the East with a teammate putting up Michael Jordan stats. Still zero moves.
All weird to me.
lebron's led THREE teams to championships while winning THREE fmvps - which is more than kobe. so how exactly does lebron have a "softer" mentality? we both agree kobe was HIGHLY skilled, but if lebron's superior playmaking, finishing and three-point shooting do not impress you, then maybe basketball isn't your thing? being great isn't about who scores pretty which is what you're arguing.

Yeah as far as careers go i put bron over kobe but as far as who's a better player i think it's close and i don't have a problem witn anyone who thinks kobe's better. Alot of experts including players who played both put kobe even or better than than bron. I don't because bron has better stats and accolades. Alot of players use experience and eye test to where it would be alot closer

Whenever op sees the others praise kong for doing something great or impressive, he instantly thinks they're bronsexuals already.

Yup, the extra posessions has also worsened the defense. The top 8 teams all-time in ORTG are all from these last 2 seasons, so the longevity thing also comes into question as it's much easier to put up numbers as the years go on.

Knicks all da way
Re: Westbrook and Lebron have cheapened the triple double.
Westbrook no triple double tonight, fell 1 assist short. But that's only because Beal was off (0-9 on 3s lol). But he got the dub
