[tpols]

Lebron averages more points and assists but 2013 Kobe's more skilled than he ever was.

If he's more skilled than Kobe I cannot possibly describe how much more skilled he is compared with bran


bran.

I love AI but if he was more skilled than Kobe Bryant (one of the more skilled players..ever) then he'd still be in the league, once he hit 32 he was basically done, AI relied so much on his speed and once he lost that it was basically over.

Kobe's skill has allowed him to adapt his play and be an alll NBA 1st team player while Iverson was already out of the league..and they came out in the same year..

Iverson, you mean the same guy that shot below 40% TWICE for an entire season? The same Iverson that Kobe owned in the Finals?

[knicksman]

well its the same for lebron having more skills yet kobe has the skills that matters for winning thats why he has 5 rings and doesnt disappear against diaw

[longtime lurker]

Hahahahaa no Iverson isn't more skilled than Kobe. Iverson had insane gifts such as his quickness, athleticism and large hands for a guy that was closer to 5'10. One of the greatest scorers of his generation and pound for pound one of the toughest players but no he's not close to being as skilled as Kobe.

Kobe is an overall better player, but don't fool yourself into thinking AI isn't comparable to Kobe offensively.

AI and Kobe took the same type of shots, were guarded by the same defenders and AI actually saw more doubles for most of his career.

The main difference?

Kobe is listed at 6'6
AI at 6'0

And most will even argue that he's not even 6'0.

Give AI Kobe's height and his TS% skyrockets.

And as others mentioned, pair up prime AI and prime Shaq and they have at least 2 rings.

This is the dumbest thing I've read in a long time. But then again, what is to be expected from a dude who believes 50 year old Jordan could drop 50 in an NBA game?

[TheMarkMadsen]

Kobe had a weak game 1 and followed it up by averaging 27/9 the rest of the 4 games

Well one was being double teamed and the other was, well...



Trolling aside, Iverson certainly didn't get "owned" by Kobe, wouldn't you agree?

[Levity]

lakers were also off for over a week while the sixers were still finishing up the ECF. yes, time off can help them get rested, but that much time off can also be detrimental to teams in the sense they need to find that rhythm and fire again

[hateraid]

Skill is not a direct correlation with efficiency or shooting percentage. Otherwise wouldn't Nash be more efficient than both of these players?

I have no problem saying AI is more skilled than Kobe
