[Hoot Gibson]

Himm...interesting theory posted by the Kobe fan club members. Lebron did not really outshoot Kobe this season because a dunk is not a real shot. Unfortunately, for the Kobe boosters, Lebron did not dunk from the 3-point line this season and his 3-point FG% was slightly higher than Kobe's this season.

I am not saying that Lebron is a better shooter than Kobe but he did outshoot him this season. Kobe takes more bad, contested jumpers than Lebron does. Kobe's shot selection is not going to improve because he is a more selfish player to the core than Lebron.

As for the claim that Kobe would never disappear in a big game, gimme a break! I recall a playoff game in which following a bad first half and a halftime lecture on shot selection, Kobe pouted the entire second half and did not take a shot. A real team player, that Kobe - and such a coachable young man too.
