Can Kobe Guard Pierce 1-on-1?
Not trying to troll, just asking a legitimate question. Why did Kobe need help from the double team every time Pierce had him on the block?

because pierce is a terrible passer, and double teaming someone that isnt the greatest dribbler, not a great passer, and not very smart = turnovers

In a ISO situation Kobe and Pierce both need help against each other. Kobe will fly by Pierce if he gets that first step and Pierce needs help to be there. Some times Pierce can get by Kobe and the same applies, or Pierce well body his way into the paint. Both are too good on offense to not need help defense.
Difference is Kobe can elevate much higher and get a shot off. I think the defense has done a good job keeping a hand in Kobe's face in these situations. One of the more memorable times Pierce elevated over his defender and shot was when he had Fisher on him in the post. I don't expect he'll try that against Kobe.

If kobe is a perennial 1st team all defense he should be able to handle fat pierce right? Kobe is overrated as a defender. Kobe can't handle pierce 1 on 1, hell he barely handled ronnie brewer 1 on 1.

Actually Pierce is in much better shape than last year, you can see by looking at his face. Kobe and Pierce have both looked fat, including Kobe this very year. I've heard comments from my friends that Kobe looked pudgy. They are both in good shape now. The facial fat is gone.

Didn't realize how much detail about these players' faces you have paid attention to.... You're a guy? That explains a lot.

kobe lost 15 pounds this season for the USA team and has held it off this whole season, obviously you have no idea what your talking about, nice try though.

Yeah way to tell me what I'm seeing. You can tell Pierce has shed the weight from last year where he sat on the bench more than Wade did this year.
