    Kobe 02-03 in his absolute prime. He gained more muscle up top and got bigger compared to last year. His outside shot, mid range game, and attack on the basket was the greatest throughout his entire career. Had he been the number one option this year as opposed to Shaq, he would've dropped at least 35ppg, just like in 2006.....I mean Shaq was injured for a month during this year and KB AVERAGED 40 POINTS PER GAME FOR AN ENTIRE MONTH!

    • @Basketball82423

      ***** Ya and too bad Shaq decided to delay his foot surgery during the summer, which caused the Lakers to play poorly in the beginning of the season and as a result end up with the 5th seed in the playoffs....or else who knows, they might have won 4 in a row..

    • @Basketball82423
      @Basketball82423 8 років тому +7

      Garth Andrews it's close but 06 he was on a bad team and the #1 scoring option. 02-03 he was the second scoring option behind shaq and was ave 30ppg and 40ppg during a 1 month stretch. He set the record for most 3 pointers in a gm with 12 and 9 straight. He was a bit younger too and had most of his greatest dunks ever.

      Kobe was at his absolute zenith in 2007. After the All Star break in the 06-07 season, he went nuts. He had 7 50pt games in 1 calendar month.

    • @eskimo289
      @eskimo289 7 років тому +24

      This is how I view it.... in 2003, Kobe was ATHLETICALLY his best ever. He literally looked like he could finish ANY dunk, get by ANY defender (or defenders) with one step. And his footwork was the quickest I ever saw. From 2008-2010, He was his best as a leader, and just being a SMART team player -- his clutch play and experience in the playoffs was Jordanesqe. 2006 was the PERFECT hybrid between the two. He was (almost) as athletic as he was in 03, but his skill and experience was high enough that he had matured more since then. That's why he was the most unstoppable. 2007 he was _similar_ to what he was in 06, but he looked different to me. He wasn't as explosive athletically but he seemed SO FREAKING under control, his fundamentals were incredible. I feel like each season Kobe was adapting to his body (injuries and surgeries) which is why he looked different each year. If his body didn't have any issues at all (ie Lebron) MY GOD.... the player he could have been.

    Kobe may have been a more 'complete' player during '06-09... but his true and only complete prime year we witnessed was during the 2002-2003 season when he averaged 30 6 and 6. Let's not forget he also had 2.2 steals and shot 38% from 3 that year as well (both of which he never came close to ever again).
    2003 was the only year we saw a true and complete Kobe. He had the athleticism, the dunking ability, the speed/quickness, the 3-point shot, the mid-range, and the defense.
    '04 saw him decline due to the legal issues, '05 he was injured, and by '06 season you can tell he didn't have the same explosiveness. He averaged 35 ppg but relied heavily on his mid-range jumper and post game. And if he did explode, it was only in short bursts.

      JIX9ISLER1986 Yeh and TMac averaged 32 while making it look easy than anyone ever. Remember in 02 when apparently he slept on a home game and his teammates called to wake him up minutes before the game and he dropped 40 that night. I remember it in the newspaper. No dude could drop 50 plus and look like he wasnt even trying like TMac.

    If ya watch games of kobe in the early 2000s he was more athletic than lbj had a way better jump shot even that early in his career had pretty good footwork and a fadeaway jumper mid range attacked the basket as great as anybody.. Lbj without his athleticism will take a quicker nose dive than kobe because lbj doesn't have a consistent jumper not a good free throw shooter he doesn't even use his post game How everyone was raving about all summer...

    • @samuel2pac72
      @samuel2pac72 5 років тому +4

      captain save LeHoe He wasn’t more athletic than LeBron, maybe faster at some point, better body control for sure we see this in Kobe’s acrobatic dunks and layups, but explosiveness, strength and vertical leap even handsize and frame, Bron has the clear advantages. Both are elite athletes but LeBron is about a step in that regard. And Kobe Bryant was injury prone. Kobe has him beat in every fundamental skill however and him being able to perform at an elite level with injury riddled seasons speak to his skills. Kobe also had all the damn moves.

      The funny thing is Lebron still is putting much better overall numbers than Kobe in his prime even with those guys on his team... 27 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists with a good amount of steals and blocks... The only place where kobe outdoes him is at scoring, even in his prime kobe couldnt do that

      bballislife7158 When you surround yourself with great players it opens yourself up to do great things. LeBron plays the 4 spot, sometimes 5 spot so yes he is going to get rebounds. LeBron plays with a bunch of guards and then Bosh so yes he is going to be in transition more and get a ton of assists. The points, any great player will score points. It isn't all about the stats. Kobe has actually had to battle injuries in his career whereas LeBron has not. LeBron has only played 1 season under 65 games and that was the nba lockout season. Kobe has played 5 seasons under 65 due to injuries and 2 more seasons of low minutes his rookie years bringing his averages waaayyy down. Rookies back in the day, didn't start immediately like they do now.

    He had better stats in 02/03. His 05/06 season was great though

    People can keep hating him but we all know he's better than any player. He is the only one that's close to MJ

    Why does everyone has to fight about these 2 players, they are both great in there own way. But if there was a choice i would have to say kobe because he is really good at every thing. Kobe bryant has had way more experience he had a dad who played in the NBA and tought young Kobe everything he knew. Kobe bryant could shoot 3 pointers when he was 6... 6!!!

    Ray Allen is arguably the best spot shooter in the NBA and Bosh can still go for 20+ on any given night. Dwayne Wade fell off a little this year just cause of injuries but he still played good and I'm sure he'll come back strong next year. I don't hate LeBron either I just don't like people saying he did it alone when he didn't.

    Can't we just stop this everlasting discussion? Michael, James and Kobe are the faces of the NBA over the past 30 or so years. The only comparison you can make is that all three of them dominated the game in their prime. You can not compare stats because the game changed over time and the amount of other incredible players is not always the same. It's not stats, mvp's or rings, it's the general performance that counts. Why not enjoy the talent instead of being stubborn and compare?
