Is 3-13 shooting and 6 points a "Kobesque" performance?

Kobe seems to have horrible games like these all the time, as he did tonight. He also contributed 7 turnovers.

The Lakers were carried by Pau Gasol's 10-15 shooting, 24 point, 12 rebound performance to victory.

Update:

You are incorrect. The fact is that half of his games feature poor shooting and lots of poor decisions. Kobe is way too inconsistent to be an all-time great player.

Update 2:

He might be the greatest shotjacker, that's about it.

Update 3:

Nope. You found a game from when Jordan was 23 years old, and he scored 11 points to 2 turnovers. Nice try though loser.

Jordan = 50% shooter for career, amazing for a guard

Kobe = 45% shooter, garbage

    Michael Jordan has the record for the most consecutive games scoring in double figures (866 Games). For Kobe to break that he'll have to play another career. So it's fair to say that he blew his chance at that record.

    Yeah Kobe's kinda "streaky".

    Kobe can have 3 straight games shooting the ball efficiently and not turn it over. Then the next 3 games he'll shoot 6-23, 8-21, 13-34 and average 8 turnovers per game.

    You never really know what you're going to get from him night in and night out. Will you get Kobe scoring an efficient 40+ or will you get Kobe shooting you out of a game and turning the ball over a ton?

    This is why Kobe needs very efficient teammates (Gasol 10-15FG, 24 points, 12 boards) to offset his horrible shooting performances.

    Kobe did not need to score alot tonight. The only thing he was trying to do was get Pau used to the offense. And since they only played the Nets, it was the perfect opportunity. Kobe can drop at least 30 every night (like he did last year) but that is not necessary with this team. The Lakers weren't carried by Gasol, they all wanted to get Gasol used to the triangle offense. So when we go back up against the better teams, he will know exactly what is going on at all times.

    A kobe type game is 13-33 shooting. The fact that he only shot 13 times is a wonder.

    Kobe also had 8 assists, so I have to question why he still took that many shots. The guy you're passing to is making shots but you aren't, so DON'T STOP PASSING!

    PAU GASOL - TRUE MVP

    That sure sounds like something Kobe would do, alright.

    Source(s): LOL... the fake KING's stat on Jordan and Jordan is so much better! ROFL! When compared to Jordan, Kobe sucks! You can take Jordan's worst 100 games and it would still look better than Kobe's best 100 games.
  • no im surpirsed 3-13 isnt kobesque like 6-25 is im surprised he didnt keep shooting repeatedly

    over

    and over

    again

    and again

    keeps going

    more

    and more

    wont stop

    keeps shooting

    teammates dont pass to him

    he steals it from own teammate

    shoots it

    again

    and again

    over

    and over

    you get the idea thats kobesque thats the only reason the pau gasol trade will help lakers he needs to get shots too

    Source(s): hahahahhaha excuses already"dislocated pinky" dude shut up and stop making excuses wow

    lol how is 45% shooting as a guard garbage?

    michael jordan may be great, but if kobe bryant came before mj, we would be hailing jordan as "the next kobe bryant," wouldn't we?

  • 1 decade ago

    NO umm hello he never has games like this the last three games he had 30+ points and he has a dislocated pinky in his shooting hand so it was off

  • Actually, it's a more "Jordanesque" performance
