Title: Happy Anniversary
Post by: GangstaBoogy on January 22, 2008, 12:05:13 PM
It was 2 years ago today when God slipped on a #8 Lakers jersey and gave us basketball fans the single greatest performance that we will ever wittness in our lifetime. Although the haters looked for any excuse to down play this breathtaking display of greatness, the real ones know that no one else will ever come close to doing what he did. Enjoy...

81 Points (28/46 FG, 18/20 FT), 6 Rebounds, 2 Assists, 3 Steals, 1 Block

Amazing.


I was supposed to go to that game (as well as Game 4, where Kobe hit the game winner vs. the Suns), and I still slap myself every time I see highlights.

I'll never forget that night myself. I wish my Grandpa could have stuck around just a little longer to see that.

For the 81 point game, I was in Vegas. Wanted to leave early to catch the game at Staples, but I ended up staying and watching the game on TV...for the Lakers-Suns Game 4, I had a pair of tix for Games 3 and 4 and had to get rid of one pair, so I sold the ones to Game 4 and went to Game 3.

that shiet was a huge accomplishment, but nicca you talkin like Wilt aint score 100 (19 more points than him) to set the NBA record. no one else will ever come close to being 2nd place for most points in one game? well i guess so but u took your dic guzzlin to an extreme, soundin like you writing a romance novel about kobe. nicca the record is 100, not 81, and aint nobody gonna ever come close to that 100.

81 in this day and age > 100 in the early 60s.


Kobe 81 on 46 FG attempts and 20 FT attempts
Wilt 100 on 63 FG attempts and 32 FT attempts

1. This thread was to give props to dude for his accomplishment, not to argue over who else did what.

2. Wilt Chamberlain played in an era where he was allowed to intercept his teammates shots and slam em down as dunks and get the points for it. So some of those 100 points would be goal-tends (turnovers) today.

3. Let's appreciate his greatness while he's still playing and in his prime.

with Wilt he had one other guy who was in his class and that was the superior Russell ofcourse.

Kobe is in a league with Tim Duncan, Nash, KG, Lebron etc.  right now who's to say they aren't better than Kobe?

NBA rules were slightly different in Wilt's day as opposed to today's standards. We will probably never again see anybody do what Kobe did in our lifetimes.

Because that 2nd place record shouldn't be done in today's NBA.... and by a guy who didn't have dominating size like Wilt did over the players of his time.

Hack Wilson = biggest attention whore and most immature kid on dubcc easily.

This thread is about Kobe and his amazing performance, your post shows all you want to do is start a pointless argument, wait thats all you ever do in any thread.
You are worthless, and I aint mad its just you are pathetic.



It is unreal for me to think someone in my generation scored 81 pts in one game but hey thats Kobe Bryant,  phenomenal player.
