Lakers: How come Kobe's numbers dropped in the playoffs?

[Clipper Nation]

Wanna see a comparison of elimination stats Kobe v LeBron?

I've seen the Game 7 comparisons, it's even worse for Kirby

[Michael Jordan.]

You seem to be trying to put Lebron and MJ on the same level which is innacurate, Finals averages:

MJ in 6: 34 PPG 48% FG 37% 3PT

Lebron in 4: 23 PPG 44% FG 28% 3PT

Still going with the player with a perfect Finals record and that can consistently hit an open jumper.

For a dude with a Michael Jordan username, you sure like and defend Lebron a lot, even against MJ.

[Clipper Nation]

Lebrons stats suffers leukemia in da finals tbh

22.3 Per those are[/B]pippenc #s

Kirby's career Finals stats: 24.7 PPG, 41% FG, 30% 3PT

LeBron also averages 7 assists per game in the Finals to Kirby's 5, and 8.1 rebounds per game compared to Kirby's 5.7....

Even with 2011 factored in, LeBron is STILL the better all-around Finals performer than Kirby

[RsxPiimp]

lebron's PER takes a huge dive in the finals, that was the point he's a career 22.3 PER in the Finals, while facing the weakest defensive teams from the west (okc, mavs crofl)

in 2013 alone, lebron shot 30% against the spurs twice, and 40% 3 times

kobe faced some of the best defensive teams (boston twice, orlando magic with dpoy howard)

[Koolaid_Man]

Compared to Mine and LeBron's?

see my Kobe Sex Thread for your answer takes a lot of work to add in basketball

Lebron faced the same Boston and Orlando teams as Kobe and outplayed him badly against both.

Magic Johnson and Jerry West both said Lebron over Kobe which is kinda sad

Kobe obsession

[Deuce Bigalow]

30% TWICE
LeBron's worst shooting percentage equals Kobe's best

Kobe's best - 51%
Lebron's best - 48%

Kobe's worst - 37%
Lebron's worst - 36%

[Arcadian]

You played in a watered down era. Lebron plays in a weak conference.

1984 to 1998 was watered down??? In what universe???

[Katherine Robinson]

Kobe obsession

I have been meaning to ask you, if I may, do you believe Tim Duncan to be bisexual, heterosexual or sexual? I ask because it is a curious subject matter and your pinion weighs far heavier than the average Catholic San Antonio resident.

[LkrFan]

Compared to Mine and LeBron's?

How come you didn't rang in the '80s like Magic, KAJ, Bird, Dr. J, and Zeke? How come you didn't rang until their teams got old - or when the league got watered down by the likes of the Heat, T'Pups, Grizz, etc? I'll wait for your or deflection.
