Mrs. Bryant should expect a large gift, which she usually gets when Kobe scores big.

"Hey, Wilt, is that the number of points or the number of women in one night?"

I'm not impressed since he was only 28 of 46.

He's just a ball hog, which is why the Lakers are 5 games behind in their division.

He doesn't have much of a 'supporting cast', as they used to say about Jordan and the Bulls.

The Pistons would still wipe the floor with Kobe and the Lakers.

Especially since 13 were from the 3 point arc.

LOS ANGELES - Kobe Bryant scored a staggering 81 points — the second-highest total in NBA history — and the Los Angeles Lakers beat the Toronto Raptors 122-104 Sunday night.

With the fans at Staples Center chanting “MVP! MVP!” Bryant made two free throws with 43.4 seconds remaining for his final points, putting him behind only Wilt Chamberlain on the all-time scoring list.

Chamberlain scored 100 points for Philadelphia against the New York Knicks at Hershey, Pa., on March 2, 1962. His second-highest total was 78 against the Lakers in three overtimes on Dec. 8, 1961.
