Kobe Scores 62

**15thRegionCrazy** · 12-25-2005, 11:33 PM

Kobe Bryant showed jedi-like ability as he flat out lit up the Dallas Mavericks on Tuesday, in a performance that few have ever seen the likes of. Bryant dropped 62 points -- in just three quarters. To put that stat into perspective: Heading into the fourth quarter, Kobe had outscored the Mavericks 62-61. No player in NBA history has ever outscored the opposing team over the course of an entire game.

I heard and saw this the other day but I was at work. Can't believe no one started a thread on it. Like him or not he sure can play.

Who cares about Kobe? He wouldn't have had 62 if he would've done a thing called PASSING!

Kobe is just a big ball hog
