Is Kobe's 05-06 season overrated?

[DonDadda59]

No, Kobe's 2006 is more impressive then Jordan's mid-80's seasons when it comes to scoring. League pace was much higher in the mid-80's then it was in the 2000's.

When Jordan scored 37 and 35 PPG, the Bulls played at the same pace as the Thunder are playing this season. The league as a whole may have played at higher paces, but the Bulls played at the slowest pace in the league in both seasons. And Jordan's efficiency>Bean. Plus Jordan didn't have the benefit of the league making it impossible for teams to defend against him. If Jordan was getting the same FTr as a Wade or Durant and no one could physically impede his drives to the basket, he would've had multiple 40 PPG seasons. And that is not an exaggeration.

Kobe playing under similar rules as Jordan put up James Harden lite #s

Scoring, perhaps (although Jordan did it on better efficiency), but not overall offense, like the guy above was saying.

IMO Kobe's was better in the simple fact He scored in much more way's , Kobe had More weapons then Young MJ.( MJ was getting Grip loads of points finishing around the Rim after attacking OTD)


also count the fact of( like a poster above said) factoring in the era's and the 80's era of defense....there were so many wing players scoring 25ppg on 50% with weaker skillsets then modern players.

efficiency does play a very small part I guess....but looking at the picture in context with everything....IMO Kobe's season was a better season, offensively speaking.

My opinions only
