I think a couple of guys could have put up more 50 pt games but that is not what they are going for in the playoffs.. I am sure kobe, bron, bird, barkley and others could have scored over 50 more if they needed to...

Jordan has the most 48+ point playoff games in history by a LARGE margin with 12 such games (2 games of 48 pts, 2 games of 49 pts, and 8 games of 50+ points).

Kobe can score 50 every game , but he needs to have his teammates score other wise they lose

Are you actually a chucker when you make over 50% of your shots? Is this the best you can do? I would encourage a player shooting over 50% to shoot as much as he wants.
