Kobe: 61pts, 3asts, 1blk

Bron: 52pts, 11asts, 9rebs, 2blks

Wade: 46pts, 10asts, 8rebs, 4stls, 3blks - 24pts in the 4th quarter

Who had the best game against the Knicks?

I think Wade's performance last night topped both Kobe's and Bron's amazing games.

Dwyane Wades.

Kobe's was def the worst. All he did was keep shooting. I think you can make a case for either Dwyanes or Brons as the best.

Kobe's numbers are so inflated because all he does is shoot. if mean hes a great shooter/player, but now his game is becoming so one-dimensional is getting depressing.

Yeah, he shot 31 times making 19.....and he was 20-20 from the line. Can't leave that out

Wade shot 29 times making 16

LeBron shot 33 times making 17

Next argument please

You guys clearly don't watch the Lakers play much:lol:

I'd say Lebron's game was more impressive (then Kobe's). One board away from being historic in fact. And it taking place in Madison Square Garden makes it at least a more hyped accomplishment.

i do and all i see is everyone standign around watching Kobe play. Theres the occational wide open 3 for Fisher and Bynum and Gasol are good big men by themselves, but Kobe is just a shooting machine, he doesnt bother to play D anymore.

ROFL

He plays plenty of D. He has only shot the ball 3 times more than Wade this season and less than 100 more times than Lebron

All that being said, I would order the games this way

1) James (had a triple/double till it was taken away)

2) Kobe (19-31 from the field/ 20-20 from the line)

3) Wade

Sure if you like points and absolutely nothing else. Not in general, but that game Kobe did nothing but score and not even that many more points.

I think you can put Wade or Lebron first, but Kobe HAS to be last.

On the draft Quentin Rollins bandwagon.

Your opinion and I completely disagree. See my above post about shots taken in the games

ROFL at this thread. The Laker hate's so pugnant, no one else is listening to Lt Dan's evidence. For someone to call Kobe one-dimensional proves how blatantly ignorant that person is.

Kobe definitely plays defense, ask Lebron.

I never said he cant play D. Ive always thought Kobe was one of the most complete players in the NBA. Its just as of late he seems to play D when he feels like it, but most of time he just loves to shoot. I mean, I cant blame him, if I could make it from anywhere on the court I would probably do it too. Doesnt mean he should. :rolleyes:

And ask Team USA and even Dwyane Wade himself. Plus, he was getting a lot of triple doubles and double doubles earlier in the season. And if hockey assists counted, he'd be up there in the league leaders.

I didn't say Kobe doesn't play defense either. I said in that particular game, his line is nowhere near the other guys.

And Kobe was sick that last game against Lebron and held him to 5-20 shooting

and 9-25 in their other meeting

Exactly. He just shot his way through the game. D-Wade and Bron played a more complete game.

He still plays matador D. But when he has to slide over for help defense down low, it causes problems. Not his fault.

But is sure is in Heat Land. Figures since you obviously don't watch Laker games.
