Check the Lakers record in those games.
I think the Kobe/Stackhouse comparisons come from the scout (and it was Chad Ford, the "NBA Insider" who quoted an "unnamed scout" they rarely talk to me) thinking that both would be guys who would score 30 points a game over 12 years and have a losing team record.
When you say shooting I figured you meant "taking shots." The Lakers are better off when Shaq does this than Kobe. You kind of admit you realize this is true above - like you realize that a Shaq dunk is better than any Kobe jumper. Even with Shaq having his worst year, he was still a more effective offensive option than Kobe.
