Kobe was entering in his prime in this year's playoffs. Even though Iverson was the MVP this year, I truly believe that Kobe was the best player in the league.

Kobe 4-2 against the Spurs in the playoffs

@samuel2pac72 6 лет назад

"I told Kobe today he was my idol, he's playing phenomenal. The mark of a great player is how you make the players around you play, I now can truly say that Kobe Bryant is the best player in this league" - Shaq in 2001 at 2:42.

@sirtakalot 10 лет назад

They were absolutely dominant especially in the playoffs, but talent-wise, I will personally always favor the 2000 team with Glen Rice. One of the best all-around shooters ever. Similar to Ray Allen in terms of style.

@mamba9381 9 лет назад

gary bush Tmac was only MIP that year. Kobe was the NBA leading scorer through the first three months of the season. When you watch the last minute of the all star game that year, he took over like a veteran. At age 22, he was already THE man. Of course Iverson had a better season but Kobe has an amazing run in the playoffs, even averaging 33pts 7rbds 7asts during the Western Conference Finals vs the Spurs. There were great players during that time but Kobe was in the top 3 with Shaq & Iverson.

@mohamoudmohamed9182 9 лет назад

@mamba9381 16 лет назад

I know what I'm talking about. They beat Portland (50 wins that season) 3-0, then Sacramento (55 wins) 4-0. They destroyed San Antonio (58 wins) 4-0. In game 1 vs the Spurs, they win by 14, by 39 in game 3 & by 29 in game 4. Entering the finals, they had a 19 game winning streak. After a loss vs Phila in game 1, they won 4 straight vs the Eastern champ. They never lost on road during the entire playoffs to finish with the best postseason ever (15-1 record). So I know what I'm talking about.

@Randomnoobi 12 лет назад

Look at how effectively Kobe was able to get to the basket and do his scoring. Interestingly, it was right after this season that the NBA instituted the zone defense in the league. Just imagine if Kobe were allowed to play the entirety of his career without the zone. His numbers would be astronomical.

@jayyoon9075 11 лет назад

It's not really how much he scores as is the remarkable ease and variety with which he scores. His game was so creative and so fluid, yet so dominant.

People seem to forget how athletic and quick Kobe used to be. It's amazing how long it has been on how relevant he still is today. Older superstar in the NBA in his 16th season.

@KungaMatata 10 лет назад

Yet he had 16 rebounds, distributed and controlled ball the whole game, played terrific defense, and made all the big FT's when it was needed, Yes he played played poorly, but based on his performance in all 7 games and the things he did beside scoring in game 7, I think he deserved Finals MVP in 2010

@keyon11000 11 лет назад

Thankyou!!! People don't remember kobe's great athleticism and his ability to play over the rim. and his ability to do it all. Handle the ball, post up, great on the fast break, he could pass, he had developed into a great shooter, he had great footwork even back then, and he was a great defender! In many ways, he was better than he was in 08. He was just not a smarter player back then.

Gasol is an all star calibur talent. Odom has exceptional talent. A 6'10 player that can handle, pass, rebound and post up. Fisher is solid on the perimeter and a reliable defender. Vujajic is a shooter. Walton is a solid passer and secondary player that fits in the Triangle offense. Bynum is a potential all star. Farmar is a starting guard on teams outside the top 6 teams in the League. The Lakers have a team.

@SrustinLim 16 лет назад

To be honest, Kobe Bryant is probably the greatest offensive player the NBA has ever seen. His post moves, his crossovers, his jumpers, his footwork is unparalleled. Jordan will go down as the best player ever but Kobe will go down as the greatest individual offensive player in league history. Kobe = Jordan v2. Their games are similar but Kobe's offensive game is just a little more polished.

@PeterJustGames 14 лет назад

Kobe playoffs 2001 was the MVP ..Shaq 4 Chips, 2 MVP's and Kobe 5 Chips , 3 MVP's should be like that

@chitownmo 16 лет назад

Kobe has at times placed an emphasis on scoring above playing the entire game and you cannot deny that. During the championship years he notoriously broke the team offense for himself, not always because he had to. How many times have you seen Kobe set picks, dive for loose balls, boxes out consistently, close out consistently on defenders. When Kobe hits big shots it is beautiful but when he gambles and gets beat off the ball people make excuses for him. Makes no sense.

@cacak1234 11 лет назад

IMO Bryant was the best player from 2002 to 2010. Yes Lebron won MVP in 2009, 2010 but Kobe won back-to-back Finals MVP during those years and made the most gamewinners in the league. I look at playoff success to determine how great star players are. Kobe won 2 titles, while Lebron lost in the second round both years. Plus Lebron didn't really have the clutch gene back then. Kobe could take over big games and finish off teams. Not saying Kobe is perfect, but the shit he does every game is crazy.
