Kobe in 04 was terrible. Shot 38% for the series and it’s especially egregious since Shaq was absolutely unstoppable making 64% of his shots, yet Kobe shot more. Detroit had no answer for Shaq but Kobe couldn’t stop chucking.

Well he’s not knocking down his shots this year and that was really his only skill. He’s garbage on defense, never developed as a playmaker and can’t really do anything as a finisher either, so if he can’t knock down threes, he’s got no role. Unfortunately this is what happens to most role players. They just kinda disappear once father times starts creeping in. Stars have a lot more room until they hit a production floor, but role players don’t have that much room. All it takes is a little slippage and they’re out of the rotation. There’s new talent coming every year, so it’s tough to hold your job when you really only have one skill like the younger Curry.
