Section126's Top 50 Current NBA Players.

Kobe being more "clutch" than LeBron might be the biggest myth in the history of myths.

Its right up there with Jordan winning by himself. Jordan was 1-9 in the playoffs until he got Pippen. He refused to play for anyone other than Phil Jackson. His team won 50 games without him. He was hardly winning by himself.

exactly. hence why there are 4 other guys on the court

 

Kobe didn't win **** by himself.

LeBron single handedly took his team to the Finals.

In the EAST. Given the fact the West #8 team probably would of been a 1 or 2 seed in the east is a big difference. Hence why Lebron was SWEPT in the Finals.

 

And Kobe did what by himself?

 

Complained he had no help and made a fuss to be traded.



...on his own

 

big deal.. so let get him a cracker jack ring for that.

Name any player to win a championship by himself

 

They sure did. Lakers had to many internal issue and the team imploded. Like Pat Riley says "Rebounding wins championship" something the 07 team didnt have since Ben Wallace was gone. They werent as good as when they smacked the Lakers. So again you're wrong he didnt beat the same team the Lakers lost too.

 

This is exactly my point.

 

Yes they imploded. The whole team was dysfunctional by the time the reach the finals. It was a team of stars that couldnt work together including Phil. It's not the team with the most superstars that wins a championship, it's how well those players play with each other against top competition. Detriot was the better TEAM.

Again your wrong. From the time Webber (1/16/2007) signed with the pistons to the end of the season they were Tied for the 4th best record. They were tied with Toronto in the East for the best record from that time frame.

Dallas 35-7
Phoenix 32-13
San Antonio 31-12
Toronto 29-14
Detroit 29-14

BTW

Piston 2004 NBA Finals vs. Lakers (Shaq)
+62 Rebounding Differential

Pistons 2007 ECF w/o Wallace vs. Cavs. ( Ilgauskas)
+10 Rebounding Differential

That's a HUGE difference. Far from minimal like you said.


IMO the Lakers had a good team but couldnt work together to win a championship. They could of easily lost the series vs the Spurs had it not been for a ridiculous Derek Fisher Buzzer beater.

 

Read what you wrote. Unless my eyes decieve me you said in the League.

Now do some simple math. The number dont lie buddy any way you try to spin them.

Standing the day Webber signed.

End of the season standings.

And I was not arguing about the east i said the 2004 Pistons were better then 2007.

 

Pistons 04 > 07. That's it. Lebron still the best player in the league. Im not questioning that. The Piston as a team played better in 04. If they didnt they wouldnt have gone out and got webber but that wasnt enough. No need to take offence to it. If you dont agree well that's fine too.

 

Field goal percentage is one of the most important stats in basketball, i could average 20 points a game if they just gave me the ball to shoot all day and i didnt care if i had to make a decent amount of them.
