Already addressed this b.s. you left off plenty of players from 80/90 most likely because you have no knowledge of the game so you have no clue who they are

Good college starter
Re: Why was Kobe infamously “inefficient?”
he's just great at making difficult shots
but that also makes him easier to guard in a way because you know he's going to take those stupid shots over and over and over.

Re: Why was Kobe infamously “inefficient?”
he has the same point per shot as jordan till his Achilles injury
fg% doesn't mean everything

Embiid > Jokic
Re: Why was Kobe infamously “inefficient?”
A number of factors; being known as a ballhog, regularly taking very difficult and contested shots, actually being inefficient in all but one of his Finals, and having his most famous playoff performance be 6/24 will all add up to create that narrative.

Nah the only difference is offensively the nba became more perimeter focused so naturally perimeter defenders got more recognition. Defensive schemes weren't any different in the 2000's compared to the defensive schemes mj faced.
Just look at what 40 year old shell of himself mj did on the wizards in this era. Shit he gave one of the best perimeter defenders of the 2000's the buisness and even he told you mj would destroy that era. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qe6YEfRBPc4

This one cracks me up.
Who is the all-time SG playoff assists number 1?
Why don’t people make comments like this about Shaq? “He never pass” “he never shot 3s”
Why do people expect a shooting guard to be a passer?
What are Kobe’s 2 most iconic plays? The alley-oop to Shaq, and the pass for the 3 to Artest.
and FWIW, Durant has a lower career assist rate than Kobe did.

Yeah be interesting to see what he says. Both bron and mj had better fg% and ts% than kobe in the post season. Haven't looked at the finals specifically but my guess is they're even more efficient than kobe in the finals compared to reg session or post season in general

That's an understatement Kobe was the least efficient ATG of the modern era in the Finals, at least of guys without a 1 or 2 series sample size.
