So true-now Kobe and T-Mac are gone.. At least we still have 2k...

Really wish kobe hadn't cut T-Mac's and Yao injuries

Bro he could’ve easily got 25,000 points.

Wasn’t as efficient unfortunately

Todays NBA is weak, defenseless and pussified. Unwatchable.

@Luke Dougherty yeet.

Kevin Durant is not better than TMac was in 2003.

@@TheMrKobeBryant2012 i don't think he was either

It's easier to get a ring now a days if you're an all star level player. The league wants you to win one to bring in more revenue.

+Anthony Rodriguez becuase shane battier is a better defender than tmac

+Anthony Rodriguez t-mac actually made kobe miss more than kobe making t-mac miss career wise. also. they both made the exact same number of FG on eachother career wise. kobe just shot like 5-10 more shots to equal the FG made with tmac. so this just shows how great t-mac was offensively. able to score against top defender. watch "tracy mcgrady vs kobe bryant: the rivalry" is my video :) youll enjoy it

+SourishWhale tmac guarded the best player usually because he had no great defensive player. kobe had solid defensers like rick fox and carol butler. and kobe didn't always guard tmac by the way. the only game where tmac and kobe guarded eachother most of the game was when they each scored 38pts.

Of course the GOAT could dunk

Bryant and Brown scored together 82 points against Raptors in 2006. #facts

Marcos Villavicencio *84 points

He has small hands still

Bonk Caesar To give you a quick summary regarding the negatives of Kobe’s shooting/ scoring here’s some records that Kobe Bryant holds: First all-time in total missed shots in the regular season. All-time leader in missed shots in the playoffs All-time leader in missed shots when you combine the regular season and playoffs Most missed game winners and buzzer beaters Only Finals MVP not to shoot above 50% in a single finals game (did this both in 2009 and 2010)Worst shooting performance by any NBA finals MVP in history (40%) Out of the top 20 players in points per game all time, the only player from the modern era with a lower career FG% than Kobe is Iverson There are only 13 games in NBA history where someone has scored 50 points or more on sub 50% shooting, Kobe is responsible for 7 of those 13 games .Only 5 players in NBA history have missed over 2,000 more shots than they’ve made; Allen Iverson, Bob Petit, John Havlicek, Elvin Hayes and Kobe Bryant. Kobe hold the record for most consecutive NBA Finals games shooting under 50% (15)

+LeGOAT James Better than Kobe lebron is still 2-4 in the finals....

Yung Tre Ok, and? LeBron is stilll 14-6 against Kobe

+LeGOAT James Better than Kobe shit the fuck up, nobody asked you to say ask that shit, why you hating, go on a lebron video

+LeGOAT James Better than Kobe how many shots Lebron took in the finals though?

giehlemanns I was thinking the same thing. I guess these past few years we have LeBron, Carmelo, Durant and Westbrook / Harden. But I would rather watch AI, Kobe, TMac, and a prime Wade for sure.

xusurper True. And I get tired of watching Harden & LeBron intentionally run into their defenders & get bailed out with free throws.

xusurper I couldn't agree more.

rockafelladw boyy haha that is the most true thing i heard today

xusurper I wouldn't put harden in a league with the other scorers you mentioned. I have to respect his point totals, but man the foul hunting really bothers me. Probably because there's always that one guy who doesn't stop calling fouls during a pickup game. Regardless he doesn't have the skill set to put him as a great scorer I don't feel

Yeah kobe was under the rim lmfao

Shawn Adams (thinking dunking on someone means posterizing) not really...but whatever, when you dunk on someone that person is 99% of the time under or at most half way from free throw line and rim. Can you imagine a player dunking on someone standing at the free throw line? that's never happened, would never happen, and it would be stupid considering one of them will be hurt...also you wouldn't be able to finish the dunk.

StarveBox_One T

John Montgomery if the uploader put the date correct, then its not 06 season to which you are refering to, its 08 where kobe actually made to the finals and lost to celtics in 6

That was the year when the Lakers aquired Pau Gasol via trade and made it to the finals to face Boston Celtics.

I stand corrected... Even still this team wit Gasol still is just ok.

Pau gasol andrew Bynum odom fisher this team was far better than ok

Young Bynum, not the All Star in 2012. Gasol was an All Star, Odom was a great starter, and Fisher wasn't a great player but his leadership and clutch performances make him a very good addition. Solid team.

ReggieHaynesTv well said

ReggieHaynesTv All of those stop-and-go's fucked those legs up. But I really wish he was healthier

Kacey Y. True. And we all do my friend, we all do.

ReggieHaynesTv Oh the mr first rd guy? How pathetic was he in po i mean come on 1 year they had good record and went out first rd he was even crying lol in the presser after he guaranteed theyd go too 2nd rd. He was allergic to even the 2nd round let that sink in, worst than Cp3 in the post season and that is saying something, do not give me bad teams, Tmac was regular in the playoffs but always going home early.

colin reed Just what I was waiting on thank God. First off colin in that year they advanced they played a trash ass Portland team. And in his allergic years what other star did he have on his team Colin? Waiting...... I swear to God if you say Yao Ming I'm going to slap the shit out of you. Cp3 had other stars Colin. T Mac didn't have shit. To go far in the NBA people have multiple stars when this guy was on his own. Carrying a team doing damn near everything. Look back at his teammates during his playoff years and let me know how many other super stars or all stars played with him (in their prime). I already know you're going to say an ignorant comment so I'll be waiting.

😂😂😂😂

you ain't no Kwame Brown baby

Cashnasty's favorite doll he's the GOAT

NbaNewGeneration Nothing new for Kobe.

I saw alot of contact everytime he went to the rim

Dang Prince, get Kobe's nut out of your mouth 💦

NbaNewGeneration So did Jordan, Bird, Bron, magic, Durant, Dominique, Pierce etc.

NbaNewGeneration bro he played a whole season with a broken finger, ice baths, cryo therapy,.. basically played the entire 09' season in the physical therapist office. Don't get it twisted these "quesetionable calls" was a huge beating on his body

yeah he did. bet kobe had nightmares on that.

If that’s a poster than we have changed the definition of what a poster is

+Johnnyboy231000 I was just thinking the same thing. I was watching a few Kobe V T-Mac vids and you see for most of the game Kobe is defending T-Mac, but T-Mac was rarely on Kobe. Most of the time it was Grant Hill, Shane Battier or someone else on Kobe. This game they had Bynum not in & LO hurt so they had Walton on T-Mac & it really is one of the better games he had vs the Lakers.

cadroy What the fuck are you smoking?

Kobe is not even the greatest shooting guard of all time wtf is wrong with you?

Wealthy gamer Not really an opinion. He stated it as if it were a fact. Our favorite player is not necessarily the greatest.

Wealthy gamer I agree on that but Kobe is not one of them.

Wealthy gamer Definetely and will make it to the hall soon.

Yea D up yo gay ass nigga

Can't complain about a game that already happened. Besides, Kobe isn't always looking for the foul when he plays.

No it's just every great player gets calls and goes to the line. I don't get the hate. If kobe wasn't looking for the call then the refs are giving it to him regardless. We all know what harden tries to do but no one is able to stop him from doing it.

2deeZproductions don't compare Kobe Bean Bryant to him ever again. I mean ever.

What do you mean Kobe doesn't go for fouls? He goes right into his defender after he gets them with a head fake just so he can get to the line.

2deeZproductions Well this did happen almost 8 years ago.

+Jayvee Cristobal w

Exactly lol he only passed the ball once during the whole game

did you guys even watch the vid? lol

+Kaori Miyazono yeah I did. Lol I'm commenting on shot selections that even middle school kids can point out wasn't a great selection. Not a big fan of selfish basketball so early in the game.

+Brother Salomon ok then lol

he had 5 assist

***** That's called the Kobe special He's the only guy who can get 25 free throw attempts... in three quarters! How bout them refs?

Obviously with the hack-A-Kobe tactics

***** He also missed 9 of them, great player...

Moonsorrow Still shot a better percentage than T-Mac :)

Moonsorrow yeah but he brought the lakers back from 12 points in under 2 mins.

Ariunbayar Demberel this made me laugh. It’s weird how shot more shots and a lower percentage while Kobe also avg about the same assist.

Exactly

Christopher Mckinney Nope.

ThePlaterism T-Mac was a better 3 point shooter, rebounder, he was also on the same level as Kobe defensively. T-Mac also took better care of the ball.

ThePlaterism T-Mac had more assists per turnover, this clearly shows that he took better care of the ball, 0.8 less turnovers than Kobe which is nearly less than 1 whole turnover per game. Turnovers can decide a game so T-Mac would be the obvious choice.

ThePlaterism impact decides a game, and Kobe had a greater impact. So quit using stats here to determine impact for stats are trivial when it comes to impact you buffoon.

CbKsbestHitman Am I that funny?

Too many stories in the NBA end that way.

Well many people say T-mac a failure LOL. I would like to be that "missed potential": almost 1000 career games played. 7 NBA all star. 3 time nba scoring champion. NBA most Improved player. 18.000 points. more than 200 mil dolars earnings (endorsment and contracts). One of the best NBA superstar for almost a decade. OH yes what a failure. LOL. well let me be that failure ....Pleaaaaaseeee.

please two incomparable situations, Tmac had a good career, grant had a shit one.

+Fariko Frizz he was...unfortunately injuries and father time got in the way. most people never witnessed G-hill's greatness. if he had been healthy he and T-mac may have gotten a couple in Orlando together.

+Christian 0000 wouldn't say shit his first 4-5 years was great & his Phoenix years he was good just not as great as he would of been without the injury

Whereas t-mac could barely get any FTS in big games or against certain teams. like the spurs he would NEVER get Fts it's just insane. T-mac has often hinted at david stern setting up series against him because they don't want low seeds to beat the high seeds. When he was with orlando. and yao getting moving screen calls all the damn time in 2005 in the 2nd half of the series while every other team was doing the same damn thing.

Yea but that's in fantasy world he never was healthy like that

+trapnig313 be fa real Bruh

+bart simpson i wanna see a 1 on 1 of the 07-08 t-mac vs the 07-08 kobe all we need in 2k17 is the 07-08 lakers for that to happen

Lol ur dum. Kobe guarded T-Mac on D. T-Mac wouldn't dare guard Kobe.

+jifyum07 Kobe was better at this time. T-Mac was declining fast

Imagine if Kobe himself hadn't been injured so much himself. Remember the 2003/4 knee injury?

Learn&teach2Learn What makes Kobe better is he fought through injuries lesser players couldn't.

What you mean by that? All injuries are not the same, t-mac had back to back knee injury 4 knee surgeries in 3 years chronic back pain, and a fucked up shoulder. He had to remove swelling and liquid from his shoulder and knee before games several times in his last few years. He played the damn 2002 playoffs with backspams PLAYED Most people can't even fucking stand when that shit hits them. 2008 he played with a bandaged shoulder, and knee. the man was limping around but still carried a rockets team with a 38% fg having ass rafer alston was the 2nd best player and he DRAGGED them to a game 7. outha here

+abiola kobe fans never want to admit the truth. everyone acts like kobe won all his champs on his own. that's not true at all, except for 2002 he won that champ fair and square...cough this is what really went down. this is the story the mass media don't want you to know because they got to sell the product. kobe never won a champ without a allstar center, Phil Jackson, AND Jerry West pulling all the levers behind the curtains Wizard of Oz style. take any of these out of the equation and he doesn't even get out of the first round. don't believe me do your homework with the lakers dealing with post Kareem and Magic show times lakers dynasty Jerry "The Logo" West was able to talk Shaquille O'neal into leaving The Orlando Magic and trade for Kobe Bryant to be his wingman and left the lakers Mitch kupcake in good hands. Kobe who was going to be no one's wing man runs off shaq (squeakiest wheel gets the oil) and sounded like your typical bitch after a bad breakup Kobe-"I'm independent" next three years he doesn't even get out of the first Rd. we get to see what kobe really was, a high volume scorer hell bent on catching Michael Jordan. Then he demands trade to Clippers in response The lakers (with my best straight face on) trade kwame brown, second round 48th draft pick, and 2 throw in to Memphis for a current allstar center in Pau Gasol. and who is the guy in the Memphis management that helped this lopsided trade go through? none other than Jerry "The Logo" West himself. the same guy who created the Shaq kobe duo. he had to fix the lakers fuck up by sending another allstar center to kobe rescue. luckily Memphis second pick rights turned out pretty damn good in Marc Gasol. "What they did in Memphis is beyond comprehension," said Popovich. "There should be a trade committee that can scratch all trades that make no sense. I just wish I had been on a trade committee that oversees NBA trades. I'd like to elect myself to that committee. I would have voted no to the L.A. trade."- Gregg Popovich Now Jerry West is with the Golden State Warriors and played a key role in getting Kevin Durant to sellout and leave OKC which I disagree with but is at the same time sweet justice to me because Oklahoma had no business stealing a franchise from Seattle to begin with. suck it okc yall stole a legend franchise and lost James Harden and Kevin Durant. karma Kobe had help with his champ...lots of help. and anyone who is in denial about the truth and think ignorance is bliss be careful because ignorance can turn into arrogance very easily kobe wasnt even consider the best sg until Michael Jordan retired and Tracy Mcgrady got hurt

the dude Your argument can be summed up like this: "Kobe would have never won so many championships without Shaq/Gasol". You people who continue to use this argument realize basketball is a team sport? I could make the same case for ANY championship performer, it still would be an extremely weak argument. Let's look at some championship performers who are all as talented as T-Mac whom all has at least one all-star partner, just like TMac did in Houston: Magic, Olajuwon, Shaq, MJ, LeBron, KG, Duncan, Wade... Do you think they could have won without their all star teammates? No. Are they still top 10-20 players of all time? Yes. You see how that argument makes no sense? I'll leave it at this: all the greats (including AI, Shaq, LeBron, T-Mac, VC) agree that MJ and Kobe are two of the greatest skilled basketball players. And that's in spite of Kobe's injuries. So there's really no argument.

I See Kobe Bryant is Missing Game Tying 3 Point Triple Shot Can't Beat at a Buzzer But Will Not Go To 1 OT is a Foul with 3 Free Throw Shoot from Kb.

Did LeBron and James Harden die?

Matthew Gonzalez Nope! 3x I'm Not Say That Lbj Die I'm Quietly Please!.

Kobe can't guard Mike Bibby

Giorgi Khabazishvili Why would he be a second version of Kobe? He could of been better, just didn't have the chance.

you cant say that because fact is tmac had injuries and kobe made himself GOAT but you cant say that tmac could have been better than kb

then shut the f up.

Murglemufflin Jones Yes.

Definitely

lol

Murglemufflin Jones It's not debatable.

ThePlaterism I agree....everything T-Mac had came naturally

stop it

you should watch 2002-03 03-04 games my friend

T mac was my favorite player period, but he never put in the work that Kobe did. Talent wise it's damn close, may give mac the nod just being taller, but he faded when it count.

TMac was a better playmaker than Kobe. He passed better and more often. He wasn't the Gunner Kobe was. They had similar talent. To be honest Kobe played in LA, was selfish and most importantly stayed healthy. His career ranks over McGrady but they were close.
