Kobe Bryant's finals performances: He's not all that great.
He does have some choker in him. And it's even his teammates who usually hit the big shots in the playoffs. Let's just look at his finals performances:
00 - Played like crap
01 - Played like crap
02 - Played like he's supposed to
04 - Played like crap
08 - Played like crap
09 - His best finals performance
10 - Played like he's supposed to (6/24 game 7 though)
He has never dominated in the finals. And more often than not he underperforms.

Are these 'play like crap' just opinion or any reasonable evidence behind it?

Clippers fans have jealousy oozing from their a$$es
OP is as irrelevant as the Clippers are.

Re: Kobe Bryant's finals performances: He's not all that great.
LeBron who is the top 2 player in the NBA also played like crap in the Finals. Great players can't shoot a great percentage in the Finals in the zone era. LeBron also isn't all that great. Hell, Jordan isn't all that great either in the during the 2nd 3peat.

Winning championships is so 1990's. It's all about the advanced individual stats now.

So what about Wade? Wade played better than either of them.
Besides, it would be interesting to see how often teams did actually play zone. Not many of them do. But I guess the roam around thing is the advantage, but it's mainly how they defend.

Re: Kobe Bryant's finals performances: He's not all that great.
I expected him to explode several times in the finals based on the hype and actually looked forward to it. But he never did.

team generally dont play straight zones....but use man zone combinations or zone concepts if you will....I.e. sagging off of inferior offensive players to help their teammates or deny particular players the ball. So despite teams not running true zones they still take advantage of zone defense being legal to play better team defense than they could've in the 90s
