Re: Lebron Regrets He Didn't Meet Kobe in the Finals
[QUOTE]
Lebron regrets that he never faced Kobe in the NBA Finals.
[/QUOTE]
Yeah right... Kobe fosters better team chemistry than Lebron.
(i.e. we know for a fact that the Heat were better when Lebron and Wade were NOT on the floor together).
Since Kobe fosters better chemistry, his Finals teams would win most of the matchups against Lebron's Finals teams..
The only times Kobe would lose are the times when Lebron's team has a sufficiently-large talent advantage to overcome inferior chemistry and playing an inferior brand of basketball.

From 07 to lebron's last year on the Cavs (kobe and his team were at their best during this time)
Kobe
28.6/6/6 42% FG%
lebron
29/7.5/7 43 FG%
Cavs won all but one game against the Lakers in this span
Re: Lebron Regrets He Didn't Meet Kobe in the Finals
Lakers would probably have swept the Cavs in '09. I know that everyone and his brother wanted to see that matchup, but it would have sucked.

This.
09 Lakers made slight work of a team that handled Lebron in 6. If lakers played Cavs, we're looking at a sweep, possibly 5 games.

Individual stats are a wash basically, and we all know Kobe is not an stat guy, unlike Lebron. Never was, never will be
[QUOTE=ShawkFactory]And I bet you're one of those people who says 2/6 :lol[/QUOTE]
I'm not
Re: Lebron Regrets He Didn't Meet Kobe in the Finals
LeBron really must have wanted to give Ariza or Artest a FMVP. So generous.

His teams also won more :facepalm
Re: Lebron Regrets He Didn't Meet Kobe in the Finals
Ain't it ironic that it wasn't Kobe but Duncan and the Spurs that Lebron keeps meeting in the Finals?
Re: Lebron Regrets He Didn't Meet Kobe in the Finals
Why?
2/6 looks better than 2/7.
Re: Lebron Regrets He Didn't Meet Kobe in the Finals
For Lebron's legacy it is a good thing they never met in the Finals.:oldlol:

I doubt LA would have shot 41% from 3pt land like [B]Orlando[/B] did. ([B]152 attempts)[/B]
That was one of the differences between [B]Orlando[/B] in the ECF and the Finals. They only shot 33% from 3 in the Finals. [B](115 attempts)[/B]

the amazing thing is that the 2009 Cavs won 66 games - they had a 66-win team!!!
and it's not like Lebron's stats achieved the 66 wins - his 28/8/7/48% is inferior to MJ's 33/8/8/54% in 1989, yet Lebron won 19 more games!!!!!.... So we know his supporting cast was contributing..
nonetheless, the #1 seed, favored Cavs lost to the Orlando Magic, who then got destroyed by Kobe.
