Wade is still MUCH more efficient than Kobe. Wade doesn't take 3s yet averages 1.48 pps in the playoffs and 1.44 pps in the regular season to Kobes 1.34 and 1.30 in the regular season.

You can argue that Kobe still gets assists, but if you watch the games Wade doesn't force horrible 3 pointers at the end of games like Kobe does with 5 people in his grill.

To your other points, yes they are valid but as I said before, you put any number of players with Shaq over the Lakers title run and they still win 3 titles. While this year, Wade dominated the playoffs and finals for the most part while Shaq didnt' for the most part (he was very important during the Pistons series and still very important in the finals but not to the level he was in the past).

I never said Wade was BETTER than Kobe, I said he has some qualities I prefer from a superstar and a swing player. Kobe should focus on getting to the line and getting good closer shots like Wade does then forcing the 3 which he loves to do. His shot just isn't that efficient and efficiency wins titles for the most part. Jordan was extremely efficient, Shaq from the field is the definition of efficiency and Duncan for the most part has been. Kobe just hasn't been as efficient as Wade has been in his short career. Even with Shaq he wasn't as efficient.
