Yes, LeBron can lay it up better than Kobe can. That’s literally it…

22 year old Kobe could actually shoot, so if he was on that 07 Cavs team, the Cavs would’ve been champions…

Kobe is loyal and doesn’t need a superteam to win…

Kareem was traded for Elmore Smith. Shaq was traded for Lamar Odom. Pau was traded for Kwame Brown. AD was traded for Brandon Ingram. Luka was traded for Anthony Davis. Players get traded for lesser players all the time…

Kobe if the league wasn’t against him…

Imagine Pau Gasol outscoring every single opponent during the playoffs. You can’t, but that’s what Kyrie did with LeBron & wasn’t folding in those 4th quarters. Thank Adam Silver for that 3rd ring…

Kyrie literally outscored every opponent in all 4 series. Pau did it twice out of 4; the same amount of times as Kevin Love did it…

Who’s Better Than Kobe? JORDAN that's it no one else

Why does Pau’s 18ppg during the repeat get 10x more credit than Kobe’s 25ppg during the 3peat?

It literally wasn’t. Shaq averaged 30 during the 3peat. Kobe averaged 25. Kobe averaged 30 during the repeat. Pau averaged *19. And he was a better defender than both of them…

So why didn’t they?

Now imagine how good someone must be to be able to out-play & out-score the most dominant force of the modern era, in multiple playoff series while still in your early 20’s…
