"THE KOBE ASSIST".

In 2012, Kirk Goldsberry unveiled a unique statistical phenomenon where 15% of Kobe Bryant's missed shots led directly to points.

Kobe's perimeter gravity was so immense that his heavily contested shots regularly drew double and triple teams, leaving opposing defenses completely out of position to box out. In many instances, Kobe would deliberately attack a defense knowing his trailing big men possessed the rebounding advantage.

Goldsberry calculated that Kobe's team scored off 15% of his misses, meaning that a league leading 54% of his total shot attempts resulted in points.

Kobe Bryant didn't care about FG%.

Kobe Bryant cared about WINNING.

@Alexjakes8 @getnickwright Thanks for posting this. People have amnesia or are living in a different reality.

@chapmamba_ @GrantHDowling Not really sure why you thought this was worthy of a debate, but you’re grasping at semantics to prove a point no one was trying to argue. We lost, Lakers won. Game 5 was absolutely heartbreaking for Suns fans, apply whichever definition you prefer.

[Chris @ChristopherNags]

@chapmamba_ @GrantHDowling For suns fans, absolutely. What’s your question?

@IJumpfb @GrantHDowling You don’t know what backhanded means and it shows.

I own the below, but you wouldn’t know anything about it because you’re busy buying $5 worth of BTC with your savings. GTFOH, child.

@olympicbean Don’t forget Kobe played in an era with significantly tougher defenses & lower scoring averages. Insane

@random49108 @Gokublue001 @TheTruth8240 Why was he open?

Defenses literally gave Lebron open looks on the perimeter because his game is primarily in the paint. Kobe’s game commanded absolute panic on all three levels of the offensive floor. There were literally zero flaws in his offensive game.

@cgyolo0611 @TheTruth8240 The real joke is this comment.

@random49108 @Gokublue001 @TheTruth8240 Ydkb if this is your answer. You need to compare contested 3s.

@CFC_Ferg @Lakers4208 @LakerTakeover24 The argument is that he played in a significantly stronger defensive era than MJ (double/triple teams + physical big men), but I think it could be debated both ways. He was physically not as gifted as MJ (smaller hands) but just as lethal on both ends of the court.
