Lakers: Kobe's 81-point game..

[DMX7]

did you really just call those Raptors "NBA compe ion"

That team had Chris Bosh and Matt Bonner on it. Almost like having David Robinson and Tim Duncan out there.

a) Players are ranked based on entire careers, not 3 quarters, one or two games
b) Nobody will ever rank Klay, Gervin or Anthony top 10 because of one quarter
c) No advanced stats will support Kobe in the top 10
d) Those 81 points was done during an "antiquated" league where iso play was the norm, and sophisticated defensive sets were not the norm. The championship team run iso plays for Dirk and Howard non-stop, the runner ups run iso plays for Wade relying on FTs all year, the defending champs were all 4-down with iso plays for Manu sprinkled in.
e) That Raptors team had a defensive rating of 112.7, which is worse than every single no-defense playing team in the 1986 AND 1987 season, only 0.2 better than the worst team in 1988, and 03 better than the worst team in 1985.
f) Charles Oakley once grabbed 35 rebounds in a game, nobody will ever rank Oakley as a top 10 of all time talent.
g) Bill Russell owns 3 of the top 5 rebounding games in NBA history. I don't know how anyone can deny his spot in the top 10, tbh
h) It's apparent that your sudden 180 turn on Lebron is causing you to overrate Kobe so that you can push Lebron out of the top 10, but too bad, there is a whole list of players who are better than Kobe. And if you use advanced stats, which is what you have been pushing for a while now, Kobe would have trouble cracking the top 20.

And here I thought it was a team game.

Disagree he's a troll that is looking to reinvent himself in hopes of coming up with new trolling material.

I have the 81 and 67 point performance saved on my computer..The best scoring performance in the history of the NBA is the 81 and second to that is the 67..

And he did it against modern players and not some 6'3 white guy playing center.

If some playoff scrub like Butler or thompson did it, it's a different story but we're talking about a 5 time NBA champion here.

[Mr Bones]

.

The starting center for the Knicks in Chamberlain's 100 point game was 6'10"... the same height as Matt Bonner, who started at center for Toronto in Kobe's 81 point game.

^ you have to log on to a few more accounts and repeat the same take a few more times.

Not enough repe ion.

81pt game is an outlier from career of inefficient chucking. It's impressive only when you look at the single game with no perspective.

I don't consider Kobe a top 10 all time like the OP but you have to be stupid and a loser to be hating on the one of the greatest performance ever..

Yeah, he went from LeBron, to Tony Parker hate/Westbrick love, to Kobe love.

He's stayed consistent on his hate for 90s ball though. Maybe that take was actually genuine.

Not enough emoticons tbh.

And why create the split personalities? You are not even trying hard to hide it anymore. What's the point?
