    Default Is Kobe a top 5 GOAT scorer? And who is in your top 5?

    This thread isnt just to talk about Kobe, but to kind of see what people's top 5 would be regardless if they include Kobe or not....


    On to Kobe though...

    Regular season scoring
    30-39: 299
    40-49: 96
    50-59: 19
    60+: 5


    Greatest games:

    81 points vs Toronto

    62 in 3 quarters vs Dallas

    65 vs Portland
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTNcya0H6Uk



    Playoff scoring
    30-39: 75
    40-49: 12
    50+: 1


    Greatest games

    50 vs Phoenix
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDm0-8vzTIw

    48 vs Sacramento

    49 vs Denver

    It's clear that Kobe is one of, if not the best streak scorer of all time. His offensive skillset and scoring arsenal is one of the best we've ever seen, and his ability to create and make shots is nearly unmatched...

    I think shaq and west deserve some consideration aswell.

    But yeah MJ (GOAT scorer), Wilt (All of his records and some great playoff scoring runs) Kareem (All-time leading scorer; and some great playoff scoring runs as well) are all locks for me

    This is so hard to say, in the sense that sometimes it's not just about the skills of a player, but their mentality and willingness to take shots. For example a Lebron could score more if he wanted to. And Kobe has a better offensive skill set but is not as consistent as Lebron. So in that sense, who's the better scorer?

    If I had to pick one I would say Jordan, simply because of his ability to create a shot in a split second and at will. Best ever in that sense alone.

    in no order:
    wilt
    kareem
    jordan
    kobe
    lebron (i have him over durant, because he has more 40 and 50+ point games)

    i want to put durant on that list, and eventually i will, but i cannot ignore his inability to score on physical defenses.
