Kobe and McDi are both one of the "four major points guards". They are both talented and very good-looking in playing basketball. They were hailed as "the two heroes" back then. They all have a lot of fans, so it is normal to compare them. Each fan definitely thinks that the stars they like are strong, but we all say that data and record can tell everything. Compared with the 21 matches today, you will naturally have an answer that is stronger and weaker.
comparison with other stars may not be objective enough. Maybe they are not in the same position, or maybe the peak does not overlap. But Kobe and McGrady were completely versatile against the top. Kobe entered NBA in 1996, and McGrady entered the NBA in 1997, both high school students, and they were only one year apart. They all debuted as substitutes and then became the core of the team. They were all point guards who were directly on the court, so their data showed that they could see who was stronger and who was weaker.
Let’s look at the data first. They played 21 times in the regular season. They have never met in playoffs . The battle of Fire Lake was finally a fire lake. They were also led by Yao Ming and single-core team, and McGrady did not play due to injury. Kobe averaged 26.9 points, 5.4 rebounds and 5.3 assists per game, while McGrady averaged 17.9 points, 4.8 rebounds and 4.8 assists. The shooting percentage is not high, Kobe 42.5%, McGrady 39.2%. Kobe's data is full of surrounds and crushes McGrady. It is obvious that Kobe performed much better on the court.
Then there is the record. They are all the core of the team. As for the later development, it depends on the individual. Anyway, Kobe has achieved a record of 14 wins and 7 losses in 21 matches, while McGrady only won 7 games. You can say that Kobe had O'Neal in the early days, but after OK was disbanded, McGrady had Yao Ming around him, and Kobe had Gasol for many years before he had , Gasol , so there was no strong teammate in his record. It can only be said that Kobe leads the team stronger. When he is fighting for offense, Kobe can end the game, and McGrady is often a bit less domineering than anyone else.
Then it can be seen that Kobe is far better than McGrady in terms of data and record. It is not an exaggeration to say that Kobe is better than McGrady. If there are still McGrady fans who are not convinced, then Kobe will also crush McGrady with personal honor. McGrady only has two teams and two scoring champions, Kobe has 11 teams, nine defenses, two scoring champions, and MVP, 5 championships + 2FMVP, which widens the gap between the two.
So, Kobe has been a super giant for a long time, and McGrady has been a superstar for a long time, and they are still very different. What do you think?
