However LeBron has the highest individual game game score





In fact, LeBron has 2 finals games with a higher game score than any of Jordan's

LeBron also played in the much tougher era with the refs against him.

I don't see Shaq anywhere on the list?

Surprising to see this year's lebron so low. I thought it would be higher. But being up there with MJ is phenomenonal.
MJ's 1st 3peat being the 3 of the top 4 is insane!

[JT123]

LOL at 2000 Kobe
It's why no one with a brain takes those Shaq rings seriously

[JT123]

Also nice to see official confirmation that Kobe's 2004 Finals was much worse than Bron's 11 Finals. Educated fans already knew this of course, but always nice to have numbers to back it up.

Shaq's averages are there for reference but I was just comparing perimeter guys primarily.

His series high in 2000 and 2002 slightly edge out Jordan's best series in 1991 and 1993.

LeBron's last few Finals have been phenomenal ... Wade has been the better finals performer compared to Kobe surprisingly.

Dirk has been as expected overrated af. Curry even had a better series last year.

[J Shuttlesworth]

MJ and LeBron are the ****ing 2 greatest players ever

good research
This thread should be bumped after ever finals.
The only thing you could do to improve it is to include RoundMoundOfReb's finals stats and include them in the OP so that this thread becomes the ultimate finals comparison thread which includes game scorers and the statistical averages. .

God damn... Kobe's been to SEVEN finals, and theyre this bad? Lol
