SOMEONE'S FEELINGS ARE GOING TO BE HURT...

go outside you fkn loser

Struggled with eastern conference physicality at times.

Kobe always slithered through a defense and avoided contact. Similar to Curry now, even though he's a more step back kind of guy.

MJ, Wade, LeBron were players who drive more. Eastern Conference gritty style of play and defense eats jump shooters alive. That's why those guys fare better against physicality because of their strength and shoulders can shed, take or give punishment.

Because he sucks at statpadding. Lebron is a master. For example...

Game 1 vs Celtics (2010). 1-5 fg with a 20 point lead

Game 1 vs Magic (2009). 1-5 fg with a 25 point lead.

Game 5 vs Magic (2009). 3-9 fg with a 12 point lead

All leads courtesy of one Kobe Bean Bryant.

Just shooting constested long jumpers to make the time run out.

Compare that to a stats obsessed Lebron and his masterful statpadding in the losing efforts (game 4 this year is a prime example).

How can you compete against that kind of beta.

Care to post Lebron's 4q averages over his finals?
I'll wait

[Magic 32]

Care to post Lebron's 4q averages over his finals instead of cherry picking three games?

Care to post his statpadding?

[scuzzy]

[Magic 32]

Didn't think so

I'm not surprised.
