    Duncan had a near quad double in the closeout game in 03 against the Nets. Probably the best nba finals performance I saw live. Baylor had a 61 point game in the finals for the old heads, not sure the rest of his line though.

    EDIT: Typo. 61 not 71.

    Duncan
    What's funny is he looked pretty average after the first quarter and a bit. I think he only had about 6 points just before halftime.

    I know you hate him, but at least get the stats right: 37-12-4.

    The OP clearly stated "modern era". He said it twice. Stop trolling.

    You actually missed Kobe's first game, which is at 22... The 40/8/8 vs Magic (Dat stat-padding...)

    In all honesty, this game would be rated even higher had he not played the 4th quarter garbage time.

    Instead of 40/8/8 on 16-34 37%, he would have had: 38/8/8 on 15-29 52%...

    Also that would have kept that mythology to the game... Like to Jordan's 39 vs Blazers '92.

    I mean, 38 after 3? People would always say "Had Kobe kept going, he would have scored 50!"

    Yeah, I was wondering how OP missed that one. 22 is damn good though.
