Fans who often watch NBA know that the intensity of regular season, playoffs and finals is different. In the regular season, many stars will take health care to avoid injury, so regular season games often can't represent the true strength of a team or the true level of a player. Many players are fierce in the regular season, and the data will be greatly reduced in the playoffs. This is the legendary pseudo-superstar. As a leader of an era, what are the differences between Kobe's regular season, playoffs and finals? He is better than you think.

Kobe Bryant's career.

Kobe is the best shooting guard after Jordan, and the miracle of averaging 8 1 point is still widely circulated. Kobe is a high school student with a very long career. After being selected by the Lakers in the sixth place, the Lakers teamed up with Shaquille O 'Neal to win three consecutive championships early, giving Kobe a better start than others. Many finals experiences also gave young Kobe enough competition experience. So in his 20-year career, Kobe has been very stable and knows how to make the team win.

Later, he joined hands with Gasol to win the championship twice, and Kobe's career with five championship rings can be said to be very successful. From rookie season to retirement, Kobe averaged 25 points, 5.2 rebounds and 4.7 assists per game, and his shooting percentage was 44.7%, which was definitely several times that of all-stars. Kobe can grow into a superstar, which is not unrelated to his excellent defensive ability. It is because of his excellent defensive ability that he can have enough playing time in his rookie period.

Kobe has been selected as the best defensive team for nine times, and the outside defense is the top in the league. A good team will not be weak in defense. Kobe Bryant's Lakers have always been a strong defensive team. Kobe entered the playoffs 15 times in his 20-year career. In these playoff games, Kobe averaged 25.6 points 5. 1 rebounds 4.7 assists and shot 44.8%. It can be seen that Kobe can also play an efficient performance in the high-intensity playoffs.

Kobe's offensive efficiency has not been optimistic, because Kobe often chooses some difficult shots, which makes the offensive efficiency worse than many stars in the regular season. But in the playoffs and finals, Kobe's value appeared, because the defensive intensity in the playoffs was not as strong as that in the regular season. It is difficult to find a good shot opportunity in the playoffs, but it needs star performance. Kobe averaged 25.3 points, 5.7 rebounds and 5. 1 assists, and shot 4 1.2% in the finals. The record of 5 wins and 2 losses in the finals also proved Kobe's value. Only such a star who can perform at a high level in the playoffs or even the finals is considered a real superstar by fans.
