Michael Jordan average 30.4 ppg at age 33

[juju151111]

what was jordan doing in his 16th season?? oh yeah, watching at home after kobe retired his ass by dropping 55 on him

MJ never guarded Kobe that gm dumbass. MJ playoffs stats and FMVP >>Kobe.

ACTUALLY jordan by age 32 averaged 30.4ppg ( with 4 assists )

jordan by age 33 averaged 29.6ppg ( with 4 assists )

kobe by age 33 averaged 30.3ppg ( with 6 assists )



Jordan missed practically the entire 85-86 season

he missed the entire 93-94 season

Jordan wasn't "resting his knees"....if you even knew or have heard what Jordan was like, you'd know he was NEVER SEDENTARY. He played baseball, worked out, basketball in between with some golf. He didn't just loaf around like a couch potato.

he missed 80% of the 94-95 season



this means jordan did his 29ppg @ 33 years old in basically his 10th full season

and had 3 years to rest his knees

while kobe has played atleast 80% of all the games in a season and never had any breaks to rest

Jordan missed games from 85-93 = 71
Kobe in his first 9 years = 111.

Jordan's minutes in his first 9 years = 25,842
Kobe's minutes in his first 9 years = 21,962

Despite missing almost a full season to his broken foot, Jordan still played 3,880 more minutes than Kobe. Then Jordan missed 147 games during his baseball stint, or about 5,586 minutes.

So in essence, Kobe played 1,706 more minutes than Jordan over the next 2 years, or about a 45 more games than Jordan.

Minutes wise, even when Jordan retired for almost 2 years....compared by minutes, Kobe only played 45 more games than Jordan did....BIG DEAL.

kobe lit his ass up as usual, jordan couldnt even handle a 19y/o kobe, it would have been embarassing to see him try to guard prime kobe

no offense but you're an idiot .. this quote right here is typical of a kobe stan and shows you just how superior jordan is to this copycat .. gloating about how a 20something bryant outplayed an almost 40 jordan .. good job dumbass

Fail post

[ThatsGame]

Yeah. It's a difference of 1 FGA per game.

Well then check out 3PA and FTA as well. Or his WS.

You also need to remember that you are comparing a whole season to a few good games by someone. Very fair comparison there bud.

i dont see how kobes first 9 years worth of mileage has anything to do with him averaging 30ppg in his 16th year

he has 16 years of mileage

not 9

sixteen lol

[LALakerFan4Life]

are we forgetting the fact that jordan averaged

4 assists in 96

4 assists in 97

and

3 assists in 98


kobe has 6 assists per game with his 30 points


brah

If Phil was still coaching the Lakers, Kobe would still be averaging 4-5 APG under the Triangle. So doesn't really matter. Mike was still a dominant player. So would Kobe.

how bout 19y/o kobe off the bench dropping 33 on 60% shooting on his ass

How about i make it a little simpler for your slow brain...

Jordan thru 11 years (including injured foot year, and first retirement years = 29,600 minutes. (age 21-32)

Kobe thru 11 years = 28,379 ( age 18-28)

Jordan played MORE MINUTES than Kobe, despite being OLDER during their first 11 years.....take your excuses and put them somewhere stinky.

[Jasper]

That's a false stat. And this is Kobe's 16th season in the NBA, so age doesn't tell the story of the wear and tear. Kobe is also as banged up as you can be without missing time.

Yep and if Jordan didn't play baseball , we might of seen 9 rings.

no sense in comparing seasons missed , college career vs pro career out of high school - let's just drop it.

I still have the games they played against each other on tape. Kobe did pretty damn good against Mike in Chicago. But next week at the All-Star game in New York, Mike embarrassed Kobe.
