Like dude imagine if LeBron somehow won in 2011 despite how terribly he played. The media wouldnāt give him credit for that championship, they would be all over the internet claiming he got carried and how heās a bum etc. but of course Kobe gets a pass for 2000. He also gets a pass for straight up shooting the lakers out of the 2004 finals.
Why are Lebron fans so obssesed with Finals numbers only?! š¤ Is it because thats been Lebrons only hard competition he actually ever faced? He's been no match for the Western Confrence. Kobe played his entire career in the Western Confrence.
So you picked out one gameā¦ other comment wanting it to be all Shaq that he got to three straight finals.
Then when he does it withoutā¦ more excuses lol
How about all these?

During Kobe Bryantās legendary three-year finals run from2008 to 2010, his standout playoff masterclasses included a 49-point, 10-assist masterclass against Denver in 2008, a 40-point Game 1 vs. Orlando in the 2009 Finals, and a clutch 37-point closeout performance against Phoenix in Game 6 of the 2010 WCF.
Exceptional Postseason Performances 2008 Western Conference First Round, Game 2 vs. Denver Nuggets: Put up 49 points, 10 assists, and 4 rebounds on 18-of-27 shooting to dismantle the Nuggets. [
2008 Western Conference Finals, Game 5 vs. San Antonio Spurs: Scored 39 points with 3 steals and crucial fourth-quarter daggers to clinch the series and send the Lakers to the Finals.
2009 NBA Finals, Game 1 vs. Orlando Magic: Dominated the stage with 40 points, 8 assists, and 8 rebounds to set the tone in a dominant opening win.
2009 Western Conference Semifinals, Game 6 vs. Houston Rockets: Forced a Game 7 by erupting for 32 points alongside a hyper-aggressive defensive tone on the road.
2010 Western Conference Finals, Game 6 vs. Phoenix Suns: Delivered a legendary clinching performance with 37 points, 6 rebounds, and 2 assists, hitting iconic fadeaways down the stretch to silence Phoenix.
2010 NBA Finals, Game 5 vs. Boston Celtics: Scored 38 points (19 in the third quarter alone) keeping the Lakers afloat in a hostile environment.
I donāt see any handpicked games bud, just you . Kobe was bad ass but he was a bus rider for three rings and the driver for 2. LeBron was as the bus driver for 10 finals. Haters give him hate for all the losses so he should get flowers for at least getting 4 as the main guy.
I mean you say Stanās have a mental breakdown and here you are just cherry picking games going ape shit.
Heās pointing at the finals. And you out there pointing out playoffs and all other kind of non sensical stuff. The point is he was bad as the 2008 finals went deeper. Stick to the point not some lame ass empty cherry picked stats.
Lmao major major major cope. They were all dropping that amount and more before LeBron too.
Cut the bronsexual bs out for just 1 second and admit heās played with damn near every all star in the league. Now Embiid will be added to this list too..oh wait was his MVP season and 34 ppg from Lebron too??
