Yes but there is a big difference there.. Kobe has an all star team with him! He shouldn't be shooting 19 shots a game! How can you not win a championship when you have Odom, Bynum, Gasol, Fisher, and now Artest. Then he has a few good role players with Brown, Vujacic, and Farmar. Kobe never passes the ball unless he has to, or if he thinks he can make a espn top 10 play pass. That is it. Otherwise, he shoots it even if 3 ppl are on him. Don't get me wrong, he is the 2nd best player in the NBA, but he shoots way too much. And D Wade and Melo are almost as good as Kobe IMO.

I just don't look at it that way. I know he plays on a better team than D-Wade, LeBron, Melo, etc. But he makes plays for himself and his teammates although he doesn't distribute the ball as much as some would like him to.

You can make an argument that D-Wade is nearly as good as Kobe, but not Melo.
