09 Wade vs 06 Kobe

[Dresta]

Didn't know MJ's 91 finals was in the regular season.

Kobe. Much more difficult conference.

Point to one regular season that is comparable to any of Wilt's top 5 seasons.

What on earth are you talking about?

What on earth are you talking about?

-Jordan is better than Wilt (scoring)
-not in the regular season
-shows a finals to prove a point (hilarious)
-he's still not better in the regular season
-what are you talking about

Lol, it's not even close. Kobe is much better. 2009 Wade was more like 2003 Kobe...and 2006 Kobe is much better than 2003 Kobe. Not even close.
2006-2010 Kobe is easily better than 2009 Wade. Especially 2006 Kobe.

How underrated is Kobe here, geez.

[97 bulls]

How do you guys feel Scottie Pippens 95 season compares to Wades and Bryants? Mind you before Jordans return.

Stats? Historically, what Pippen did in 95 has only been done four other times when he led the Bulls in the five major categories pts, rebs, asts, stls, blks. In fact, its more rare than avg 35+ pts for a season. He also led the league in defensive rating. A league with such great defensive centers as Olajuwan, Mourning, Mutombo, and Robinson

The Bulls record was basically the same as the Heats and Lakers.

And unlike Kobe and Wade, Pippen was also the Bulls defensive anchor. Anchoring the number two defense in the league.

All threes second best players were roughly on the same level. Odom, Beasley and Kukoc.

[moe94]

Pippen's peak is severely underrated.

22/8.7/6/3stls with GOAT defense?

Second best player in the league today.

Agree with that.

Although Kobe was a bit better overall, Wade had a span that is even crazier than Kobe's 62 point / 81 point span. Wade in that span I'm talking about;
13 games 37.2 ppg 5.9 rpg 10.4 apg 2.9 spg 1.4 bpg .553 fg .419 3pt .865 ft

He wasn't better overall. Offensively they're even, but their defense separates them.

Off RAPM
Kobe - +5.9
Wade - +5.7

Def RAPM
Kobe - -1.2
Wade - +0.7

Hell, Wade had the greater impact over Kobe in 06.

Wade 06
Off - +4.6
Def - +1.5

[The-Legend-24]

Didn't Kobe have like 20 50+ points games that season?

When will people just accept that prime Wade was simply a better player than prime Kobe?

Now that Wade has 3 championships, Kobe stans can't just rely on Kobe's overwhelming 5to1 ring count. 3to5 is close enough to give more weight to who the better player was.

[D-Wade316]

Honestly, Kobe's 06 season is his most overrated season. 03 comes close. His best seasons are 08 and 09.

Hop off that crack.

In typical Kobetard fashion, they be like "that was the season he scored the most points? Oh, that must be his best season then."
