Will Durant break Kobe's scoring streak record?

[ArbitraryWater]

Hardly.

Kobe's 16 games: 40.4 / 4.9 / 3.7 / 2.4 / 0.9 / 3.5 TOV / 47.5% FG / 42.9% 3PT / 85.1% FT
McGrady's 14 games: 37.4 / 6.0 / 5.5 / 2.0 / 0.8 / 3.4 TOV / 49.3% FG / 44.3% 3PT / 77.9% FT
Durant's 12 games: 38.0 / 6.3 / 5.9 / 1.7 / 0.9 / 4.1 TOV / 54.4% FG / 42.0% 3PT / 87.9% FT

More points, more steals, fewer turnovers, better from the 3. All in a 33% bigger sample size.

Thanks, you just proved that Durant's really was better

55% FG opposed to 48? WOW

Kobe's stretch was 16 games

Durants stretch was 12, its hard to mantain that level of scoring for 16 games, look at Durant's last game, if he struggles again in the next few games and we look at his 16 game stretch his numbers will most likely have dipped by a decent margin

Really, it should be 13. He shot 10/12 in the Nets game and obviously would have made it past 30 if Brooks hadn't sat him in the 4th quarter. Pick any 13-game stretch from Kobe's 16 game and he's still not touching Durant's efficiency.

Check my post at the bottom of last page, thank you.

And check how many 40 and 50 point games Kobe had as opposed to KD, and their respective W-L records. I'll take Kobe.

Ether

less turnovers, 10-2 record, 2 50+ point games, only in 2 of those games did he score less than 40.

You should have started from the first 40 point game against Phoenix though

KD stans can keep ignoring this post all they want, but Kobe did this ish and he did it better 11 years ago , and at a younger age.
