MJ: 64 PTS (27/49 FG), 5 STL, 1 AST
SHAQ: 29 PTS (11/18 FG), 24 REB, 5 BLK


MJ: “The points don’t make a difference to me. It’s just wasted energy in a sense because we didn’t finish the game the way we should have. ‘We just gave away the game. ‘We played good enough, but we just made some dumb plays. When you blow a six-point lead in less than a minute, there is something wrong with that. Getting 64 points doesn’t mean anything when you lose.”

Absolutely true. Kids today should take note.

Almost all shots were tough mid-range jumpers. Paint packed.

I could have sworn this was a Xmas 2005 game, first Shaq/Kobe head to head. I gotta cut back on the rum...

Someone who isnt the primary ball handler and shoots 55% from the field with volume is right to take that many shots.

I don’t know if it’s that simple. Quite a few guys shoot 55% at volume for years at a time but that doesn’t mean they need to be shooting 50 shots a game. Guys like Barkley, Bernard King, Dantley….Giannis, Lebron, and even KD this season(56%) have done it on superstar volume. We would still feel weird watching them take 50 in a game. 31 is the most KD has taken this year.

It’s pretty abnormal no matter how well you shoot. Not necessarily good or bad just…not normal.

Youre right its not normal. Thats why it rarely happens even with Jordone.
