I can win the scoring title anytime I want to

[Dr. Jack]

Quote from Lebron - but he's right, isn't he?

"If I really wanted to," James said, "if I really wanted to be the scoring [champion] every single year -- every single year -- I could really do it. But it doesn't matter."

yes, he's right. no question

[upinya83]

agree with lebron here

[Seanie Mac]

lebron speaks truths

[rjb1816]

so could kobe...all you have to do is jack up a bunch of shots. they would just turn in to AI...makes no sense

[Romanowski]

similar situation with Kobe

if he decides to take 40 shots a night, the lakers lose, but he scores 50

both want to win more than pad stats

Could Kobe do it if Lebron wanted it? That's the question

[Seanie Mac]

we measure players by their shoe game, and lebron has stepped his up

well lets see...kobe has an 81 point game under his belt and a 60+ one before he was pulled in dallas. i dont think there's any question that if kobe wanted to he could lead the league in scoring every year too. kobe's jump shot and 3 pt range is better than lebrons

that 81 point game - It's crazy impressive

When I saw the title, I thought it signalled the return of Blackbeard Pimp

Yes, if Lebron wanted to win the scoring title, I think he easily could. Could say the same thing about 3 or 4 other guys too though.

We should only be so lucky

maybe his jumper , but no way his range is better then lebrons

55 in the 2nd half

61 through 3 quarters against dallas before he got benched (he was outscoring dallas by himself)

the man is as prolific a scorer as we'll see in our lifetimes

[rjb1816]

well i just looked it up, they shoot about the same % from 3, but kobe shoots 10% better from the line...that over the course of the season would be a huge difference
