Enough with Jordan... New Comparo...

check their MPG....obviously, this was a big factor...damay lahat sa stats yan.

kung lagi kang babad at naglalaro ka in average of 39.5 at ikaw pa no.1 option....sigurado mabilis yung adjustment and improvement mo compare to 15.5 MPG di ba?

I disagree with Baiskee. Using Mikaztro's data and some more research from nba.com, let's see how much they would have produced per 48 minutes, to take out who has more playing time issue. check out the following PER 48 MINUTES:

rookie
Kobe Bryant LEbron James
ppg 23.5 25.4
bPG 5.9 6.7
APG 4.0 7.2
SPG 2.1 2.0
BPG 1.0 0.9

2ND yr
Kobe Lebron
ppg 28.4 28.8
rpg 5.7 8.5
apg 4.6 8.4
spg 1.7 2.7
bpg 0.9 1.1

NOW
Kobe Lebron
ppg 31.4 28.8
rpg 7.2 8.5
apg 7.5 8.4
spg 1.5 2.7
bpg 0.9 1.1

For the current season, kobe averages 20.6 field goal attempts. Lebron 18.8. In effect, Lebron takes fewer shots but has a much higher field goal percentage. His rebounds, assists, and steals are higher. More importantly, NBA has established what they call EFFICIENCY RATING, scored as pts+reb+ast+stl+blk -((FGA-FGM)+(FTA-FTM)+TO))/Game. Using this rating:

[INDENT]Kobe Bryant Lebron James
per game 23.85 7th 27.32 3rd in the league
per 48min 27.24 26th 32.06 7th in the league

I believe its very clear. Lebron is IT.
