    Default Jordan 69 pt game vs Kobe 81 point game

    We all know Kobe scored 81, but take a look at Kobe's 81 point game vs. Jordan's 69 point game vs the Cavs on 3/28/90

    Kobe 81 points (28-46 63% shooting), 6 rebounds, 2 assists, 3 steal, 1 block, 3 turnover

    Jordan 69 points(23-37 62% shooting), 18 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 steals, 1 block, 2 turnovers

    Which is more impressive? I have to say Jordans. 18 rebounds while scoring 69 points is unheard of.

    BTW, this game is on ESPN classic for you younger whippersnappers who have no idea how good Jordan was. Actually, there ESPN classic is running great NBA games all day today.

    Yeah, Jordan's takes it, just because of those 18 rebounds. Not only is it unheard of in general, but for a guard? That's insane. But it's not like it's miles better performance. Kobe's 81 point showing is pretty much as close to Jordans 69/18 as you can get without actually doing better.

    I agree. 200 points, 85 rebounds, 60 assists, it's all child's play for MJ. He could hit a 6 pointer if he wanted to, he just doesn't want to show anyone up.

    The game went to overtime so of course his stats will be inflated. Don't be stupid, Kobe's 81 points in regulation to bring his team back from a 20+ point deficit is far more impressive.

    What's harder? Getting an extra 12 points on 9 more shots or getting an additional 12 rebounds, 4 assists, and a steal? Jordan's is better, not to take anything away from Kobe but honestly if Jordan took 9 more shots he'd have a darn good chance to pass 81.

    MJ's 69/18 game is better IMO.

    Jordan x1000.

    How can say with a straight face that Kobe's was more impressive? You people saying that are the same ones complaining about the rules today against defending wing-players. You complain about how guys like Wade and Lebron have it so easy nowadays without handchecking.. yet you totally fail to mention that Jordan scored his 69 with guys physically abusing him all game. Kobe would NEVER score 69, let alone 81, in Jordan's day with the same handchecking rules. NEVER

    are you trying to say that MJ's 69 was better than Kobe's 81? go to the store and buy something that costs 81 dollars but instead only pay 69 dollars and 18 pennies and see if the clerk thinks its better than 81

    Bryant's 81 was more impressive offensively, but it's obvious that Jordan's was the better all around game.
