    When will the ankle injury come up? Or the fact that Kobe has been good in a number of finals games.
    A significant NBA record for Kirby.

    The 2000 Finals have the record for the biggest difference in scoring ppg between the leading and the second leading scorer on a winning team:

    Shaq - 38.0 ppg
    Kobe - 15.6 ppg

    That is a difference of 22.4 points.

    2. 2006 finals - 20.9 ppg difference between Dwyane Wade and Antoine Walker
    3. 1993 finals - 19.8 ppg difference between Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen
    4. 1975 finals - 18.0 ppg difference between Rick Barry and Jamaal Wilkes


    Kobe
    worst Finals performer in NBA history
    carried by Shaq and MVPau
    won the majority of his titles as a sidekick

    Those 3 eventual TV broadcaster certainly did their job not to get embarrassed.

    I cant even decide if thats a double negative or not.

    '12 Wade was still a star capable of carrying the team over long stretches. People forget how dominant his playoff run was in '12 because he was overshadowed by LeBron in ECF games 6 & 7 and the Finals. You could argue that up until game 6 vs Boston Wade was still the alpha male. Bron may have won MVP but Wade was just as great in the postseason.

    Drexler jumped on Hakeem's back after Hakeem drug a mediocre squad to a title in '94. He was a great 2nd option that Hakeem didn't have before and he simply pushed them over the top in '95. Were it not for Clyde, Hakeem wouldn't have done it again.

    '00 Kobe was the perfect compliment to one of the MDE centers at his peak. He could lock down the other team's best perimeter guy and pull defensive attention away from the true centerpiece of that team. Gets the edge over Drexler because of his defensive prowess and youth.

    So:
    Wade
    Kobe
    Drexler

    Wade
    Drexler
    Kobe

    2012 Wade is underrated imo. He acquiesced his role and battled some injuries, but make no mistake, he was still a dominant player and a superstar. Save for one crap game against Indiana (which he quickly made up for) he was a 24/6/5/2/1 57%TS player in the playoffs. He was clutch too, shooting well over 50% in 4th quarters.

    Wade
    Drexler
    Kobe



    Wade was HUGE in the Indiana series (phenomenal in games 4-6), played very good in the finals, and was solid against Boston. His 20\5\4 series numbers against the Knicks would of been higher, but since the Heat were dominating the Knicks in every way shape form, Wade didn't play much nor shoot much.

    Drexler and Kobe had the luxury of playing with Peak Hakeem and Peak Shaq those years. Yes Wade played with Peak LeBron, which is basically the same level of greatness. but it is easier to play within the post then share the ball with another ball-dominant wing player.

    I would say Wade, Drexler, then Kobe. Wade and Drexler were already HOFers and proved they could win rings before. Or in Drexler's case, get two teams to the Finals. Both guys were still in their primes as well. Kobe wasn't even in his prime yet, even though u could see he would be a superstar.

    thought it said 14 wade not 12 wade

    2012 Wade was a beast, put up 23/6/5 in the finals while leading the team in blocks

    Kobe averaged 22.3ppg in 2000...why would you raise that to 23? That makes no sense.
