Not to mention Kobe scored 81 on Bonner's Raptors in 2006. At that time Bonner was a 0x champ.
Besides, it's Matt Bonner. Who cares if he's a 5x champ?

Knowing that he won a title in his career made this game just a little more impressive to me

And it was such an impressive playoff run, too. He averaged 2.8 mpg, 0.8 ppg, and 0.3 rpg in the playoffs. He was so impressive in the first three rounds, Popovich didn't even play him a single minute in the Finals because that's the only way he felt the series would be as fair as possible.

Re: Kobe's 81-point game is SEVERELY underrated
so what... did Kobe have a game with 47 points, 14 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 block on 79.2% FG (19-24) and 81.8% FT (9-11) in his rookie season?
Griffin did... 01/17/2011

Some facts about that game:

That is the highest in NBA History.
Last 3 Quarters
Kobe - 66
Raptors entire team - 68
2nd Half
Kobe - 55
Raptors entire team - 41

Same way I feel. Absolutely AMAZING performance from Kobe. Outscoring an entire team in just 3qtrs. And an elite team at that, which is what also makes the performance special and irrefutable by Kobe-haters.
A 60-22 record Dallas Mavericks team that had made the Finals later that year...holy sh!t lol

Re: Kobe's 81-point game is SEVERELY underrated
It's actually severely overrated. Competition was a joke, gunned even after getting the team back in the game with his scoring and refused to even use any of the defensive attention given to him to even get any additional assists, even by happen stance he should've got a few extra.
His 62 in 3 is overrated too. Competition was better, but the amount of free-throws he got was absurd. All attributed to those weak touch call rules of the 2006 and 2007 season.
Kobe's more impressive scoring games 52 in 3 quarters on AK47 in 2007 (when he was still an elite defender), his 56 in 3 quarters on Shane Battier in 2002, his 61 in the Garden on Wilson Chandler, his 65 on the Blazers in 2007, and his 42 points at the half, 55 points total v.s. old MJ's Wizards on a very good defender at the time (Larry Hughes)
That and his 48 point playoff performance on JR Smith in the 2008 playoffs, to me ... much more impressive scoring games.

Its really a head scratcher that some people actually deny the impressiveness of said game.
This and only this. If one can't look at this in a professional NBA game and give it props then that's really their loss.
This thread is sadness mixed with virginity mixed with teenage angst.
