Kobe Bryant scores 61 points against Knicks in Madison Square Garden

[imdaman99]

I remember that game where both MJ and Scottie had 40+ each versus the Pacers. I do not know if they eclipsed 90 though. Great game tonight by Kobe, wish I went to the game. Me and a co-worker talked about going, but we would have had to get scalped tickets for 100+ at least

Most points scored in the Garden by an opponent.

Kobe: 61
Jordan: 55

Jordan scored 55pts on New York Knicks, on his 5th game back from retirement, wearing #45.

Jordan scored 55pts against the tough New York Knicks, whom finished the season with a 55-27 record, featuring Patrick Ewing, Charles Oakley, John Starks, 6th man of the year Anthony Mason...

well, it;s still amazing Kobe scored 61pts with such a great performance...
but i think Jordan's 55pts is a better performance.

i think you mean historic, kobe's shooting % was better with 5 or 6 less shots.

i had 2 sets of tickets and sold them on ebay and stub hub

Ok, with one guy getting at least 20

Just checked D-Rob's 71 point game in 93-94. Nobody else on SA even scored in double digits that night. Tonight's game by Kobe/Gasol could be a league first(Wilt's night excluded).

probably Kobe's 81 point game. Smush had 13.

I'm sure one of Wilt's teammates had at least 1 point that night he dropped 100.

[MaxFly]

It really is Bryant and Smush Parker... 94 points...

Congrats on scoring 60+ on a D'antoni team in the regular season. Great accomplishment, regardless of the critics who ask why this doesn't happen in the playoffs.

[Showtime]

^ D'antoni thinks defense is de thing outside de house with de gate, but still a great performance. Kobe is the best streak scorer I've seen. When he's on, he's unstoppable.

31 shots 61% in 36 minutes.

Wow that is sick. 61 on 31 is hella efficient. Kobe is really killing it right now. Second in the league, but for how long?
