Kobe Bryant vs. LeBron James

I: Scoring

In 2010 -11 NBA Regular Season, both Kobe and James remained among the leaders in scoring. James remains a threat from all over the floor whether he drives through the paint or pulls up for a jumper. Bryant has had to adapt to a less punishing perimeter game and his driving days, with the exception of a rare explosion, is a thing of the past. He still possesses a potent and fluid jump shot.

Both the two superstars have the ability to turn on the switch and pour in the points. However, when you look at field goal percentages, you would find that James did better for he finished the season with 51 percent better than Kobe’s 45 percent.

And in the Playoffs, James (LeBron James Shoes) finished with 23.7 PPG compared to Kobe’s 22.8 PPG, and their field goal percentages were very similar as well, where James dropped five percent (.466) and Kobe stayed relatively the same (.446) when compared to the regular season.

II. Rebounds/Assists/Steals

James, in 2010 -11 NBA Regular Season, has the clear advantage in both rebounds and assists. James is not only a dominant scorer, but a facilitator who averages more assists than most of the point guards in the league and more rebounds than most of the centers. And Kobe also has been good at assists and rebounds, but he’s not on James’ level for he averaged 5.1 RPG and 4.7 APG with 3.0 TOPG and 1.21 SPG compared to James’ 7.5 RPG and 7.0 APG with 3.6 TOPG and 1.57 SPG
