Default Re: Who\'s the better NBA player?

Just a couple thoughts

Kobe does make his teammates better to suggest otherwise is just stupid,

Odom is better than an above average PF

Wade also has a below average PG,SF,PF

There are serious sample size issues by saying Wade averaged more ppg than Kob in the playoffs.

What most people need to understand is that this isnt a popularity contest.

The question is not what player do you like more?

The question is who is a better player.

Also, like stated above:

If you think Kobe Bryant doesn't make his team mates better than you are a god damn moron.

Williams, Walker, and Haslem are not below average.
Odom had potential to be much better than average, but the way he plays now is only above average.

a lot of the Kobe forced shots, are by-products of [censored] teamates, that give him the ball with 4 on the clock and well a 15% shot is better than a shot-clock violation


[/ QUOTE ]

This is complete and total [censored], Kobe has been forcing shots since his first minute in the league, bad team, good team, bad teammates, good teammates, it matters none to Kobe. When he was playing with Shaq in his prime he took more shots than any other player in the league, including Iverson who was playing with absolutely nobody.

I didn't say all of them, just a lot of them

yeah he still forces shots, doesn't make passes a fair bit of the time .. but in many situations its the best play considering the other options

This arguement is so stupid. Kobe is such a superior player to Wade it is a joke.
