he's shooting 46.7% for the season, and averaging over 30 ppg. how is that inconsistent? i'm no kobe lover, but you're going way overboard and sounding dumber than usual.
What makes you think that Spur fans, Piston fans, Raptor fans, or any fan that thinks his streak is impressive are Kobe fans? Ive already said I really dont like the guy too much, but as a basketball fan that knows anything about basketball, you have to be impressed with this streak.

It's not terrible but how many games Kobe has struggled and yet people act like he is Jordan. It is pathetic. It is respectable but wow do you people overreact to his latest achievements which are all about shooting a lot.
To try to diminish this stretch by Kobe is embarrassing. He's shooting upwards of 50%, so he's not just out there chucking away.
If you don't appreciate these last four games and how good Kobe has been, then you probably aren't a basketball fan - you're just a [insert team name here] homer.
I am not looking at 4 games and saying what Kobe is. I'm looking at his whole season including the 7 game stretch where he couldn't reach 50%. Call me a homer or whatever but if you are shooting that much during a season you are bound to get hot and look great with point totals. Jordan shot at 50% for most his career though so Kobe still has a ways to go.
You've been smoking way too many rocks.
And BTW do you remember when Jordan played?
Dirk took 24 shots against Clevland and had 23 points. Kobe took 29 shots against the Hornets and had 50. Hmmm, I guess Kobe does shoot to much. And by the way, his fg% the last 4 games, 59% against Portland, 49% against Minnisota, 54% against Memphis, and 55% against the Hornets. Yeah, he shoots WAY to much
if you would like to see mavsfan1000 banned for excessive homerism please type 1

He's making real Mavs fans like myself look bad.
1, not even Spursdynasty is this bad
Jordan shot 50% 6 years out of 15, I wouldnt call that most of a career, I would call that you making up again. I guess that you really dont get the fact that only one other player in history has done what Kobe has done. You really have no valid argument, and every one you bring up isnt true

I no like jews. Ban Mavsfan and all jews please
What else ya got? Make up some more ......
I'll put Kobe ahead of Nash because of his 4 game streak but Dirk is still on top imo. Maybe Kobe will outplay Dirk for the rest of the season. We'll see but I'm counting all 67 games in why I'm picking Dirk. Put Kobe on Dallas instead of Dirk and you think the mavs go 57-11? You gotta admit having a big man that can score a lot is really valuable because they also shoot high percentages and rebound a lot. Shaq, Duncan, Garnett, and Dirk have been the most valuable pieces to a championship team though Garnett has been on bad teams. I'm not trying to discredit what Kobe has done these last 4 games. I'm just looking at the overall picture of the season. Kobe>>>Dirk if we are talking about these last 4 games.
Why dont you read the name of this thread, its not called Kobe>Dirk, it was made to discredit a feat that has only been done once before
well if you're not trying to discredit kobe than what the are you trying to do? acknowledge the fact the dudes been tearing it up for the last week and keep it moving..... but nope... instead your homer ass is in here trying to make people believe that dirk nowitzki is a better player than kobe bryant......
Ok at first I enjoyed joining the troll efforts from Lebomb but truthfully it is remarkable what Kobe is doing right now. Good enough?
In the 80s, they were a ton of guys who shot the ball at/over 50%. Different era.
And? What's that have to do with anything? Jordan kept shooting at or near 50% most his career. He started falling of at the end for sure but in his prime he was a 50% shooter. Jordan is the greatest player of all-time.
And Dirk is still on top because YOU'RE A ING HOMER!
Kobe is better than anyone in the NBA right now, and is the closest thing we have to a Jordan-incarnate. Take off your damn homer goggles.
mavsfan you are one funny ass dude.... you will say anything to discredit kobe...... i cant wait til the mavs lose in the playoffs and you switch up teams again
This, my fellow posters, is called getting thoroughly...
I say this as a Mavs fan that cut my teeth watching the Showtime Lakers chew up and spit out the Aguirre/Blackman Mavericks. Then I witnessed the nineties where the Lakers won something insane like 45 out of 50 against us, many of those Shaq and Kobe totally dominating Shawn Bradley and Cedric Ceballos. I HATE the purple and gold. And yet if you can't accept what Kobe is doing as amazing, then you're not a basketball fan, pure and simple. I hate to admit it, and I hate that it's true, but I actually kind of LIKE Kobe, and I can't say that about any other Lakers besides Magic, Derek Harper and Sam Perkins.
Dirk on court/off court +11.5/-2.7. Kobe on court/off court +1.9/-6.8. This is proof thanks to 82games.com on who is MVP worthy. No one has a better on court/off court than Dirk that plays as many minutes.
He took 29 shots and 16 FTs to hit 50. A total freaking ball hog. Chris Paul only took 15 shots.....the next most shots taken by any player in the game. , if he would have taken 29 shots, he would have hit 60 or more.
Im just not impressed when someone shoots THAT much to reach 50 or more.
I think lots of players could do it if they ball hogged.
IMHO.............
With the injuries to Odom and Walton, the Lakers have been fielding a D-League team around him. It's incredibly difficult to score 50+ in an NBA game, let alone four games in a row. When it comes to the post-Shaq Lakers, they tend to win when he goes off like this. That's the best argument in Kobe's favor. Los Angeles has a better chance to win when Kobe is doing it himself instead of having Smush Parker and Brian Cook brick jumpers. Blame Kupchak for constructing a roster where this is the case.
Kobe: 3 rings
Dirk: 0 rings
...You might as well.
