It ain't the scoring or lack of...it's how he goes about playing the game. As talented as Kobe is (and he has probably the best all-around skills in the game), he rarely execute the screen/roll or give and go as a passer. Guys cut to the basket of establish the low block and Kobe is either jacking a fadeaway (which he does hit) or dashes to the basket to throwdown a highlight reel dunk. It looks good on ESPN and in the stats, but it tears up the team concept. Trust me...team play wins over individual flash every time.
