Best Kobe Game: 81 Pts, 62 in 3 Quarters, or 60 point Final Game?

- retiring game 60 pts + game winner will never be matched.

- 81 pts is extremely unlikely.

- 62 pts in three quarters might.


in terms of record not being broken, i think last night will stay forever

I can't really choose tbh, they're all just unreal. 60 points at age 37 after so many injuries, easily the most emotional for me.

[Nick Young]

these are the holy trinity of perimeter scoring performances.

Even great players like Steph Curry have never achieved anything close to the performances in these 3 games.

[SouBeachTalents]

I'd rank them

1. 60 point last game
2. 62 in 3 quarters
3. 81 points

[Cold soul]

1) 62 points in 3 quarters
2) 60 points final game
3) 81 points against Raptors

[Disaprine]

62 points against the mavs.

[G0ATbe]

Its absolutely insane how scoring 81 points is arguably not even his best scoring performance. Only Godbe

[ScalsFan21]

1. 62 in 3
2. 81 points
3. 60 point final game

All awesome though.

outscoring the entire Mavs team by himself for 3 quarters

81 is historic
62 is incredible
60 is legendary (most memorable)

[Inferno]

to one of the greatest

[Stringer Bell]

I'm going with the Dallas game as that came against a team that made it to the NBA finals, as opposed to a lousy Toronto team. Dude outscored the damn team after 3 quarters lol

I'm not sure if it's his "best", but my favorite Kobe performance is game 1 of the 2001 WCF. He put up 45 on an excellent Spurs team, scoring in seemingly every which way imaginable, constantly taking it to the hoop and scoring against rim protectors Duncan and Robinson.
