Is it true that Kobe has a TON of more wins vs 50+ win teams in playoffs than LeBron?

Kobe without Shaq was a far better basketball player than Shaq without Kobe.

No not really just lucky he had a good enough team to win when he shoots 6 24 7 of 21

Ray Allen 3 jokes aside, Kobe NEVER had to carry a championship team the way LeBron did during the 2013 playoffs

That was a very key 3 in the game. Doesn't take away LeBron having to lead them in all that stuff though. He hit a big 3. I think LeBron hit one right before that right?

Lol, that's an insanely idiotic thing to say considering the other player was on those championship teams. You only proved him right that Kobe's never won without Shaq or Gasol

So stating that Kobe won multiple rings without Pau and won multiple rings without Shaq is idiotic?

Lebron stan logic

"Kobe never won without Gasol" doesn't need to be "disproven" because who the hell is Pau Gasol without Kobe again..A one time all star who never won a playoff game..

Wrong.

Lebron missed a couple 3's and turned it over right before the shot.

The Bosh rebound came off a Lebron miss

I'd probably just post an emoticon too if I couldn't refute that either

Wrong.

LeBron hit a 3 before Ray to make it a 2 point game


That gave him 16 total points for his 4th quarter comeback

Wow, that's about as many as he scored in the 4th during the 2011 Finals

[Thorn]

well Lebron's total is a little deflated since there are teams like the 13 Pacers that won 49 but had that game @Boston canceled because of the bombings

and the 2012 lockout season only the Spurs and Bulls technically won 50 but the Thunder and Pacers would've won 50 had there been a full season

14 Pacers also won 56 but they were garbage in the second half, clearly not a 50 win caliber team at that time they faced Miami

so Lebron's # of wins vs 50 win teams is more like 7-8, not 4

Kobe still has a lot more series wins vs 50 win teams though.

Bruh, Lebron can't win a single series if he was out West, he'd be going through the same shit as CP3. Believe that.

Kobe's played in the tougher conference his entire career, beat better defenses and more 50 win teams.

At any point in time during his playoff runs there's only one or two teams he even has to consider a threat in the LEast. Two of those teams he couldn't beat until he joined Wade and Bosh.

Wrong. Orlando Shaq was arguably better than kobe ever was, led the league in scoring in his 3rd year, and nearly matched peak Hakeem in the finals. Even if you disagree that he wasnt better than peak Kobe, Kobe sure as hell wasnt a 'far better basketball player'...

Anyway, Shaq played nearly all of prime and all of his peak w/ kobe. So even if it were true, it's still deceiving...

And Kobe on the Cav's would've been this eras Dominique. Don't kid yourself. Dude played with a top 6 GOAT since his rookie year and then had the best frontline in the league, along with the GOAT coach for his 2peat.

[dubeta]

You guys DO realize, that every time LeBron lost to a 50 win team in Cleveland, was because they were way more loaded than the Cavs?


From 2006-2010 every series LeBron lost, the other team had 4 of the top 5 players in the series


LeBron would be the best player in the series, and the next 4 best players were on the other team

Who the f*ck can beat those odds??

Last 5 offensive possessions before the Ray Allen shot.

Kobe with Lebron's 60 win Cavs teams comes outta the East EVERY year.

Who wins in the Finals depends on who decides to show up.
