Kobe Bryant 2005-06 vs Lebron James 2011-12

[L8k3r5]

Lebron James. Better defender, less bonehead shots/plays.

You clearly didn't watch Kobe in his prime.

What are you smoking? '12 LeBron's defense is indeed A LOT better than '06 Kobe's was. In fact, probably better than any version of Kobe. The difference lies in offense though. '06 Kobe was just flat out dominant on that end of the floor. He could carry his team for 40+ minutes every night and take over games at will. And that's what it's all about. Current LeBron has no ability to sustain an attack and carry his team for extended periods the way peak Kobe could.

Sorry but lebron stamina is unmatched.This postseason he is averaging 31-10-5 on 50%.Kobe one year averaged 35ppg on 46%.He wasnt very efficient took 27 shots to average 35.Lebron ability to carry bad team is unmatched in history.Dont forget he can basically average 30-8-9 without wade.Lebron was responsible for half of his teams points in 2009-2010 which is actually higher number than kobe in 2006

pauk has to be the most level-headed troll on this site

He is and he knows it. He's like Skip Bayless except, he gets boners when he sees Lebron.

Where's ShaqAttack when we need him?

[Flagrant 2]

Kobe. All the people saying LeBron weren't old enough to watch Kobe in his prime and are just prisoners of the moment.

[tmacattack33]

Are you serious right now?

If things keep going this way, Lebron is on pace for a season unheard of since MJ and Shaq.

And ur comparing him to Kobe 2006?

I did. And Lebron impacts a game more than Kobe.

losing to the Suns after being up 3-1

Not in the 4th quarter

Not in the 4th quarter

didn't Kobe disappeared in the 2nd half in game 7 vs the Suns?

you didnt think i forget about that huh.

i think he scored like 1 points.... in an elimination game

[All Net]

Kobe was the better scorer but Lebron's all-round game and dominances is unmatched. Kobe was amazing that year. Truely great season but Lebron has been amazing this season.

losing to the Suns after being up 3-1


nope. never heard of him.

You're comparing the 2006 Lakers to the 2006 Suns. Lakers were lucky to even be up 3-1.
Lebron's Cavs losing to the Magic in 2009.
Again losing to the Celtics in 2010.
And again losing to the Mavs last year after being up 2-1.
C'mon son.

Sorry I don't recall. I can recall Lebron's disappearance many times though. It's so bad for him, that he has to meditate just to keep himself calm.

lol The Suns weren't even that good.

and still lose after being up 3-1
that series was the last time a team ever came back after being down 1-3

The Suns are known as a horrible defensive team and Kobe manage to score 1 points in 2 quarter while his season is on the line. Great stuff Kobe

LeBron was never shitted on Paul Pierce either.

[BEAST Griffin]

Lebron against the low pace, good defense Celtics vs Kobe against the high pace bad defense Suns:


11-12 Lebron against the Celtics: 33.6ppg (52.7%), 11.0rpg, 3.9apg, 1.1bpg, 1.3spg, 3.4to

05-06 Kobe against the Suns: 27.9ppg (49.7%), 6.3rpg, 5.1apg, 1.1spg, 0.4bpg, 4.7to



NOT EVEN CLOSE.

Imagine current Lebron against the 05-06 Suns.
