Kobe's offensive efficiency kinda sucks for as great of a player as he was. That's always been my problem with him. He tried to be/emulate Jordan, right? Check out his FG% every goddamn year and compare it to Jordan. Then compare it to Lebron every year. Kobe was constantly trying tough fadeaways and missing them. Nobody wants to look at efficiency, they just want to look at how cool it is when he drains it. Kobe's shot selection was usually egotistical garbage and he succeeded in spite of that

Bonus is that one of the TWO championships he won without Shaq, he was absolutely horrible in game 7 and was blessed to win

I love Kobe and his personality and his mentality but he is overrated as fk
