Last 10 seconds - Lebron vs Kobe

[crisoner]

Kobe is a scorer an his style of play is putting up shots.
When he is hot he is hot...but when he is cold he can chuck the Lakers out of the game.

BUT

Like Shaq says with his free throws back in the day...the ones he has to make down the stretch Kobe makes them. And he has has the knack for doing that in his career. For key buckets in the game I would take Kobe Bryant and Ray Allen over anyone else period. Both of those guys have proven time and time again. You can bring up Kobe's shooting stats etc. but they do not tell the whole story. You want someone to come in and close the game with a dagger Kobe is your man. As for LeBron...dude is not even in the conversation.

This is like the only stat Kobe has over LeBron, and even then I highly doubt if their career percentages in this situation are much different. LeBron ranked higher on ESPN's clutch-shot list.

... Kobe ...

Is there one thing you can name that lacks from Kobe's game?

not anymore those lists are outdated...
Using the standard that Abbort used on the article.

Lebron is 0 for 5 this year while Kobe is 2 for 2.

Also Lebron's career percentage in this situation is in the high/mid 10's...

LeBron, D-Wade shot just over 20% for careers entering season on potential tying/go-ahead shots the last 10 seconds of 4th or OT.

This season, Wade and LeBron are a combined 1 of 10. Heat, as a team, are 1 of 16, according to Elias and ESPN research.

LOL @ this guy just making up stats

[ukplayer4]

hulk why do you persist? everybody on here already thinks your a joke whos life revolves around the miami heat and specifically lebron james. why would anyone take your "stats" seriously when they have consistently been expossed as lies and just made up, even the ones that are some way true involve you inventing some criteria. its happened way too often and is just laughable.

sorry man but you just need some help, is there nothing else in your life honestly?

ginobili may be bias in favor of mj but atleats he doesnt make stuff up and is actually quite informed, you are just a headcase.

Another Lebron fan not happy with the results...

I'm very surprised!

[Indian guy]

LeBron's recent misses may have put Kobe ahead, but that only goes to show how minimal the difference between them is. Not something I'd be touting as some kind of accomplishment. Not when LeBron's consistently posted superior crunch-time numbers than Kobe for years now.

Lebron is 0 for 5 this year while Kobe is 2 for 2.

Huh? Didn't you say Kobe was 2-4 just yesterday?

Yeah because my name is "Michael Wallace"

and I "covers the Miami Heat and the NBA for ESPN.com and the Heat Index"

and I make up statistics for ESPN to use on their show.

LOL...Typical Lebron fanboy trying to save face...

He hasn't the stats prove it on the OP prove it.
The stats he's putting up this year when the game is on the line proves it.

Huh? Didn't you say Kobe was 2-4 just yesterday?

Henry Abbort's metric:

Trailing by one or two points, or tied, in the final 24 seconds of regular-season and playoff games since 1996-97, with a minimum of 30 shots. From Alok Pattani of ESPN Stats & Information.

The two misses from kobe were three-pointers while they were down 3 points.
So that doesn't count using that standard.

lol, im not even a fan of lebron. just pointing out the obvious

First of all, you are a lebron fanboy and secondly the obvious is that the guy "Michael Wallace" is an ESPN writer who was assigned to cover the Miami Heat in a special 'heat index' on ESPN. He is the guy you see on ESPN getting interviewed about the Heat everyday. Yes that was the guy who tweeted that coming into the season for his career, Lebron is shooting barely over 20% in the last ten seconds.

Now You have also seen ALL OVER ESPN that lebron is shooting 1 for 8 in the last 10 seconds this season. Those are the obvious, you clearly don't want to acknowledge it because you want to live in your little lebron panzy world.

pfft don't start. Ginobli isn't informed about anything and he's just as bias as Hulk. He tried to argue that Kobe isn't clutch for 20 or so pages and then called everybody else stupid.

[dutchguy]

...kobe

Again, can you name one thing you don't like about kobe's game?
