And was only .1 points behind Dwyane wade who was 9th (if you include guys like Br magic Wilt and bird who would likely be as good or better than Kobe he gets closer to 15). Ben Taylor’s 1yr Scaled APM has Kobe as the t11th best peak with Christian Laettner at +5.8 (If you can’t tell this can be kinda wonky in a single year sample). I have been working on a Multi year peaks database and currently have ≈ 70 players tracked. I collected multi year scaled APM and Prior Informed RAPM (averaged each single year While weighting for games played). In this Database (which is only all time peaks) 06-09 Kobe ranked 9th of 25 players in Scaled APM at a +5.3 just below 01-05 KG at a +5.4 and 13th/25 at a +5.34. If you include AuPM in the Samples he’s 10/32 And 14th/32. So The conclusion is that APM data Will likely range Kobe in the lower end of the top 15 peaks (this isn’t 100% accurate Tho and shouldn’t be taken as fact. I personally have his peak closer to 10 but I could see having him at 13 for peaks.)
do you have a Link at your work or is still not ready ?
