Kobe makes records wilt source ESPN
I was reading another blog last week about Kobe Bryant and this guy was making claims that Kobe would be remembered as on of the best NBA players and would win another ring without Shaq. I agreed with him and after this 81 points Kobe put up against the Toronto Raptors it is for sure that he will be remembered as a great. The only score higher then his is by Wilt Chamberlain who played when short guys where the norm and he was a giant. They had to change the rules of basketball because he would stand by the rim and lay it up. If we had tape of the 100 point game, Wilt is likely to be called for, offensive goal tending, and 20 or more 3 second violations by today's standards. I don't want to blame Wilt for his gifted size but anyone arguing that Wilt or Shaq are great athletes doesn't know what they are talking about. They have great size and some agility for their stature but really its like a bull surrounded by clowns. Kobe is like Jordan, he has the finesse game. Its a thing of beauty and it is difficult to come by. Only Lebron James, Allen Iverson, Tracey McGrady and Vince Cater fall into the same level of skill. I hope his involvement in the US team brings some forgiveness for his recent misdeeds Kobe and goes on being the superstar he is.
