Kobe is that bitter ex-girlfriend that no matter how much she says she's moved on and that she's happy for all your success.......she will still take pot shots here and there out of spite.

was wondering if there would be any mention of the situation Shaq is going thru tonight......didn't think he would joke about it though...
 
28.6/8.0/3.9

1st in points, 2nd in rebounds, 1st in assists, 1st in steals, 2nd in blocks on the Lakers


If you include the Celtics 1st in points, 2nd in rebounds, 2nd in assists, 1st in steals, T-3rd in Blocks.

That's cool but he shot 40% from the field and 31% from 3, that's piss poor. He also had a 35.6% usage so that 28 isn't impressive.

He wasn't second in blocks either, he's basically tied with Lamar and Artest for 3rd after Gasol who was first and Bynum

Pau was 18.6/11.6/3.7/2.6 on 48%.

He provided rim protection, played great D and was a monster on the offensive glass.

He was more valuable no matter what you believe, check the Average Game Score, which is another great indicator of overall value.

Pau 23.2
Kobe 21.0

Kobe's problem all along was comparing himself with Shaq... why are you bitter that a 7'1 ogre doesn't have to work as hard as you? We know he was salty about the monster contracts KG and Shaq secured before the 99 lockout, but life isn't fair.

He's still that little brat

Even with the percentages, your argument really doesn't sway much. "Great rim protection and defense" doesn't scream MVP. Pau was great for those three years they made the finals, but I think there was a clear difference between the Batman and Robin.

By the eye test and the stats, I'd say you're wrong. Bryant really quarterbacked the teams he took to three straight title appearances. He put the team on his back those three seasons.

Metta is comparing Ryan Kelly to Durant!?!!?!?!!?


Saying he can do the same things :lol :{


Let's, hop he donates his brain to science, see what the hell is in there.

My argument shows that Pau was more valuable, I saw that from the "eye test" as well while Kobe was bricking a bunch of shots but I guess that's impressive to y'all.

Great rim protection and defense is what won them the championship but it doesn't scream MVP? :lol sure man.

He plugged a bunch of stats that taken out of context are impressive but when you look at them in the proper light, Pau was obviously the better player.

2nd in scoring/1st in FG%/1st in rebounding/1st in blocks/2nd in assists and was their defensive anchor against a team with KG.

Miss me with all the "batman and robin" talk, just because Kobe shot the ball more doesn't make him more valuable.

Knicks tripping right now man, I wanna see them get that 8th seed just for Melo in the playoffs, hopefully against Bron.

Look at Game 4 & 5.


Lakers have a 2-1 lead.

Kobe: 33-6-2-2 on 45.5 shooting
Pau: 21-6-3 on 46.2 shooting

Celtics 54 points in the paint. Lakers lose

Game 5:
Kobe 38-5-4-1 on 48.1% shooting
Pau 12-12 on 41.7% shooting

Celtics 46 points in the paint. Lakers lose


Also Game 2& 3: Celtics averaged 44 points in the paint

Pretty sure the finals MVP is for the whole series no?

Why don't you list Pau's stats for those other 5. :lol

In a way just proves my point that Pau was more valuable because him playing well lead to the wins. You also gotta look at Bynum on some of those points in the paint, he wasn't defending on Pau's level.

Post the %'s too, cause Kobe's are horrible.
