Wow Kobe was so explosive back then

[hannsum]

LOL@ these tools bringing 9 games of 40pts to match tmac's glorious magic days smh at the same time.

how about 15 games streak of 35 pts or more. matter of fact tmac was way more consistent.

read stats that are provided by the dude up there. use those useful stats that actually make sense.

and did i really see all nba defense 1st team here? wow. i mean where is bruce bowen and ron artest. can't believe these dudes haven't made more than kobe. oh wait.

lol all i know is that tmac can contain opponents jumper better than kobe. thats defense. are we forgetting the gifted wingspan in 7'3?

so are we clear that kobe is not 40 inch vert class athlete?

lol finally....

I see you're trying to put a limit on Kobe's ability in today's time.

Why the heck is T-Mac gettin' compared to Kobe? Cause of 1 season? Really? I thought this thread was about Kobe's "explosiveness" in
his younger years? So since T-Mac had 1 better guru "statistical" year then Kobe he's the better player? ( exaggeration )

I will take Kobe's 12 time all star, 8 ALL NBA 1st Team, 8 ALL NBA 1st Team Defense, 5 NBA Championships, 3 time all star MVP, 2 finals
MVP, 2 scoring titles and 1 regular season MVP

over

T-Mac's 7 time all star, 2 ALL NBA 1st Teams, 2 scoring titles and 1 most improved player..

Oh and T-Mac had that 1 better statistical season.. Congrats to T-Mac

There is something to be said about longevity.. T-Mac won't even be a HOFamer but that's for another thread too, right?

Oh Brian Shaw 

   such an underrated role player.  My all time favorite laker role player

Yup word to OneTrust, we battled back in those days.

Like someone said earlier, Kobe has stood the test of time and the oncomers in his career.  Tmac one year, Vince, Melo, Wade, Bron, Durant, AI, and others that have challenged Kobe as the top player.

In the end he still better than all of them.  They can have 1 year, a good month, a half of season better but Kobe always comes back to reclaim his spot no matter how hard the media tries to prop someone else up.

This is all from the season where he avg 35 and dropped 81. Clearly the most complete player to ever play the game, him and MJ of course

You sound really upset. You must've missed the part where I said this:

Kobe's career >>>>> T-Mac's career
You're having an argument with yourself, because no one even said all that nonsense.

Containing jumpers?

So Tmac is better at defending jumpers than, let's sayyyy.... Battier?  Because Shane doesn't try to block jumpers, but he'll cause you to miss.

Kobe has hit the 40 inch vert... they measure your vert at combines before entering the draft. Kobe's vert was 38................ at 17 YEARS OLD!!!! So even after working out with professional athletes, he couldn't hit 2 more inches? Even after developing his growth?

That year he was definitly on a mission.

That 3 against Dallas was a thing of beauty. All the fans were about to get happy because he lost the ball and then bam hit em with the fadeaway three from about 26ft out.

I was also pist when KObe made that incredibleshot going through his legs to get away from Carter and Wade, and then to have the final shot be for T-Whack just because it was hisbuilding
