As a 22-year-old in the 2001 Playoffs,
Kobe Bryant averaged 29.4 PPG, 7.3 RPG, 6.1 APG, and 1.6 SPG as the Lakers went 15-1 and captured their second of three consecutive titles.
They swept the 50-win Blazers, the 55-win Kings (Kobe averaged 35-9-4), and the 58-win Spurs (33-7-7) before defeating the 56-win Sixers 4-1 in the Finals behind 35-16-5 averages from series MVP Shaq.
That championship run went through four of the 24(!) fifty-plus-win squads Kobe’s teams would eliminate over the course of his career.
It’s crazy how some of the greatest players who played against Kobe says he’s Top 5, but people who drink coffee and sit in front of a camera for 3 hours have him almost outside the Top 10
