This isn't a Kobe thread, so please don't make it all about how he makes up over half of this list.

It'd be cool if Durant drops 60 too. Been a while since we had two 60 point games in the same season.

Excluding Iverson, they are all above 50% which is very impressive and Melo at 65% :applause:

Five 60+ point games in a span of 5 years is quite impressive, especially in the modern era (1981-present).

KD has a pretty good chance of scoring 60 without Westbrook.

The way he's been playing, probably inevitable.

This is the kind of excitement a 60+ game can provide. :applause:

Better than +60 FG% crap.

to be fair.. phil benched kobe like 5-7 times when he was a few points shy of 60 by the 3rd quarter or start of the 4th in blow outs

















and any guy that scores 50+ on a team that has shaq on it doesnt usually end up being very close

No footage of Ben getting that rebound. So the triple-double still stands.
