37 year old regular season kobe numbers 

nba finals lebron 

homie did it during his prime too

find me an nba finals game where kobe took 38 shots

i'll wait 

 

[hypebeast5]

Honestly tho Lebron is already an all time great, the east being a cake walk hurt his legacy, in my eyes thats what has his finals record as is

How many years in the last 15 have people said, whoever comes out the west is winning?

 

[bartleby929]

finally, i'm only harping on lebron's defense cause i put a boatload of money on okc then (hated the heat) and watched lebron demolish kd. it's like everyone felt kd should start lifting because of the way lebron man handled him. i watched lebron lock down rose too. it was absurd basketball. that's 400 nba games ago. 

and yeah wade's defense was super underrated too. wade blocks shots too.

What did Rose average when Bron guarded him?

everyone remembered what happened when bron put the clamps down on rose. sure you can say it isn't impressive that lebron fights rebs away from noah and then defends mvp rose...but that's just what he's doing on defense. he locked up KD on in the finals too. defense is just an underrated aspect of his legacy. the guy plays 100 games a year for 5 years straight. throw in two olympics too. he's done enough. 

He guarded kids b. 22 yr rose. 23 yr old kd. son couldn't stop grown kawhi or boris diaw last summer.

 

 

 

 

he definitely can't guard top tier pg's. any of them. so can he guard 2's? maybe klay. he can't guard harden. harden would mix him continuously. the SF is foot, but kd would probs still give buckets. he'd be food for the 4 and 5. Bron an overrated defender. Always has been.

didn't he lock down mvp rose? 

yeah, bron locked down 22 yr old d.rose. I mean he averaged 24-7-6 though. shrugs.

What did Rose average when Bron guarded him?

how many games did bron guard him? they played 5 games, lost the last 4. in those 4 he averaged 23-6-5 and 5 TO's.

Was he guarding him all game?  I honestly don't remember.

The most I remember was bron locking him at the end of games, game 5 for sure dude couldnt even get a shot off lol. but the series seemed pretty competitive, heat were just so good they won regardless of if they fuged plays or made mistakes.

exactly, since duncan and robinson beat the knicks (it wasn't close)... the west was a powerhouse until the pistons (1-2 years) and then lebron showed up

I agree

Locked up KD? yall are stanning too hard

KD and Westbrook ate those finals, just Harden choked like he occasionally does now

Lebron has great defense but yall overrate it way too much

That was a great series.  All games were close and decided in the 4th besides game one, if I recall correctly.

Only person who has locked up KD in a Playoff game is Mr 1st Team Aww Defense aka Playoff Tony Allen.

Locked up KD?

yall are stanning too hard

dude he had kd in foul trouble every single game. miami v. okc finals was a bigger mismatch than cavs w/o kyrie v. gsw

Foul trouble is locking him up?

KD averaged 30 points a game on 54% shooting :x

 

[youngwolf]

Cavs tho. 

 

 

[xcautionx]

please take all kobe talk to the non playoff thread plz


thx

ooohhhh... you were hanging on to that one huh??? LOL.... I still like Kobe tho.... too bad he didnt and never willl get that 1 to match or over Jordan

but watching the series, did you ever think kd would look that bad or okc would look that bad after blowing out the spurs, mavs, and whoever else they played? lebron played defense and offense.

The standom is going to far.

 

[scotthallwithapick]

"After going 0-for-5 from the floor with a turnover when guarded by LeBron James in Game 4, Derrick Rose struggled against him once again Thursday, going 1-for-10 with two turnovers in Game 5. Rose shot 6.3 percent from the floor in the series when defended by James, lowest among any player that defended him on five or more plays."

Every game was close except game 1 and game 5. The hell you talking about. Harden went ghost.

In certain moments of the game when KD needed to step up Bron was D'ing him up tough. I like KD but after that series mad folks was telling him to bulk up. He yet to recover since that series..

game one was close. game 2 was too and okc shouldve won but bron didnt get called on kd's last shot. foul reffing that series for sure.

 

[hypebeast5]

Harden til this day is the main reason they lost those finals

The dramatization and overhype Lebby train continues.

Bro the whole series, Lebron couldnt guard KD

You may need to rewatch those finals, missed calls and a couple more bounces that series goes 7

Lil B's curse tho

 

[anomolie]

Get use to it. I'm sure use to the Kobe slurping too

 

[nick.]

He's the second best player in the L, he's getting his regardless. I don't think it was 35 he averaged. I think all, I mean all his numbers were down and despite OKC being healthy and much better team, TA's comtainment of him is the closest thing to him EVER, being "locked up", and it almost cost OKC the series and had the Local Newspapers calling him "Mr Unreliable"
