Stats wont do it because Kobe has more supporting help who want touches too and that keeps his averages down.
Both players are great so I look forward to watching their excellence on the big stage tonight.

Having a solid supporting cast shouldn't hurt Kobe's shooting efficiency. Having an inferior supporting cast shouldn't help Dirk's shooting efficiency. Yet, Dirk is a much more efficient scorer in the playoffs than Kobe.
