    Default Kobe scored 8 points in a Finals game too

    lol at Kobe fans always bringing that up when are trying to bring down LeBron.

    What makes things worse is that Kobe was actually trying to score in that game.

    That actually makes it better.

    Young player chasing greatness trying his hardest to succeed on his first big stage versus veteran player fearing greatness and wilting under pressure to the point of not trying.

    You miss every shot you dont take.

    You can say the same about Austin Croshere, who outscored Kobe for the series and shot way better than him too...

    No it doesnt... when you shoot bad you should not force shots, you should let the scoring come naturally in the flow of the offense, you should instead focus more on facilitating, rebounding, defending..... Lebron led everybody in assists and rebounds (tied with Chandler) the last Finals...

    Lebron was actually not playing bad, he shot 48% FG, he was just deferring to Wade to much (who was hot)... he was way to unselfish and when the time came for them to hit clutch shots they couldnt, wade couldnt, so Lebron then tried but now he had no offensive rythm from all the deferring... lesson learned, wont happen ever again... especially now when Wade has officially taken a backseat...

    Kobe averaged 15 PPG in that Finals on many more shots than Lebron, with less rebounds, assists and less efficiency/accuracy......... despite that, the Lakers won the championship... its not like he hit some clutch shot/gamewinner........... which once again brings us back to my old point, a championship is a TEAM ACCOMPLISHMENT....

    He wasn't in his prime and was injured. He played in 6 other Finals series in his prime and averaged 27 PPG in those Finals series, 29 PPG post Shaq.
