I hate the Lakers with a passion, but I have to admit, Kobe is pretty good.

 

yeah and he had a whopping 2 assists!

Jordan>>>kobe

 

What do you hate the Lakers with a passion! Wait, you are from San Fran so you must be a QUEENS FAN! That says it all!

I did not see this game, but I keep hearing about this. I'm curious, what the the final score with Kobe scoring 81 points. I'm not hating or nothing but that's a bit extreme for any player to have 81 points in one game. I mean what was the rest of the team doing?

 

The rest of the team was probably watching Kobe just like the rest of us.

 

when my dad told me to look up that Kobe had scored 72 pts and it was only the 4th qtr i didn't believe him...and i looked it up on espn.com and it was amazing...i'm a big SUNS fan but man, you don't get to see 81 pts in a game everyday

Man, those LA Kobes aren't doing too bad this year.

 

Does the state of Washington even have a basketball team?

 

^^^^^^^^^ Word! I just think it's hilarious when they win with Kobe taking 3/4 of the teams shots......Reminds me of myself in high school

 

Exactly! Also it is a team like the Raptors!

I was at the game! Once a player gets that close to breaking a huge record the rest of the team joins in and helps him get there. No matter how you feel about Kobe it's an outstanding record, second only to Wilt's 100 point game in 1962.

Haters or not, that was friggin' awesome. The vibe in the Staples Center was tangible, almost no one left before the game was over even though there was no chance the Raptors could get back into it.

Yes, I am a Lakers fan.

 

Dude, that musta been so amazing to see in person.

I think he coulda scored 80 in the game a couple of weeks ago but
P.J. pulled him out for the entire 4th quarter. I think he had something like
61 points thru 3 quarters.....WOW!

 

I am a huge laker fan and I watched this game from tip off to the end. The rest of the team was playing horrible. Kobe sat out for half the 2nd quarter and the lakers were down by 18. In the 2nd half he just took over. The were triple teaming and he was still hitting shots. There are too many Kobe haters, but when your that good people hate your success. He shot 60% so its not like he was shooting alright, he was on fire. Just so you all know he also set the laker record for most consecutive free throws made lastnight, he made 61 free throws over a span of games without a miss.

 

Yeah I think so. They're the ones that scored 152 points last night in Double OT against the Suns.

...but all THAT, even the Seahawks winning their first trip to the Super Bowl in their 30-year history, was eclipsed by KOBE BRYANT SCORING FREAKIN' 81 POINTS!

< -- was never a Sonics fan =P

EDIT: just to add. The game wasn't exactly a runaway, either. As bad as the Raptors are, they were still relatively close to the Kobes all the way to the end.

I'm not gonna lie, that stuff was impressive. I'm just bitter because the Seahawks' success got overshadowed by Kobe Bryant and his inability to miss.

 

bump to the Sonics dot win


And the Seahawks Super Bowl 40 whoop whoop

 

I missed the game last night so I'm hoping and praying that the entire game is replayed sometime soon.

 

I would be ____ed too, the Seahawks going to the Super Bowl is a great thing but to be shadowed by the Lakers game really sucks. Since I am a Packers fan, when you win the Super Bowl could you please send Mike Holmgren back to us!


John

 

Warriors fan here... but still amazing to see Kobe do that. Think what you want of him, but you can't deny his talent. Congrats to him & the Lakers for their win. Now... can I get my Warriors on track???

 

LOL........too bad he cant do this consistantly, then it would be intresting......

 

its kinda selfish!!!
