Re: ESPN Poll: Who's the best Player Kobe or LeBron

Meanwhile in his short career, Lebron has already finished a year with a better per ranking(his third year) than Kobe has ever placed and finished top 3 twice with a current PER of over 30!

Not saying that these numbers are a clear indication, more of why hasnt Kobe faired better in this particular stat which is regarded as the best player evaluation stat out of all the popular ones?
By that stat (PER) Tracie McGreedy has had a season who rivalled the best ones of a player named Wilt Chamberlain.
The same Tracie who has never won a playoff series...

And i think i can remember someone saying Fat Lever had, once, a better PER season than Magic Johnson...

LOL
