Yes good times of watching all the good old games on tv with my dad and also watching espn classic early am I liked the nba movies on tv aswell with Dr J hosting , good times man
Now Stuart Scott is broadcasting and BOOYEAH-ing every play of Kobe and Gigi in Heaven. Rest in Heaven Kobe, Gianna, and Stuart Scott. Legends that left too soon.
Don't forget Chick Hearn and Dr Jerry Buss watching from the sidelines. Crazy to think the greatest play by play announcer, owner and player for the Lakers are all resting in paradise.
Alex Nagel I mean if you’re down by 20 pts for the entire game, and nobody is making buckets except for “the team ballhog” then obviously you want to put the ball into his hands. Down by 20 the entire game, then won by 20 🤷🏽♂️ and with his amazing shooting he still managed 2 assists, 6 rebounds, 3 steals and 1 block.
I would say that Kobe Bryant's 62 points is the most impressive thing I've ever seen. It's the only time an NBA history that is known, where one player outscored an entire team. Had he kept going in that game, I am confident that Kobe would have gotten 90 points and outscored the Mavericks.
Wow,the best part is how he took so many shots without getting tired no way Michael could take 40 without takin a break. Just shows how great his will to win is
just cuz its the second most amount of points, doesnt mean its the second greatest performance. wilt chamberlain was a foot taller than everyone else and at that time the competition was NOWHERE NEAR what its at in todays game. not to mention there is no footage of the game. kobe's 81 pt performance is the greatest in history.
@BigTimePride Kobe has stepped up in every big game I can think of. Indiana when Shaq went out. Spurs in the West Finals. Game tying 3 against Detroit. Game Winner against Phoenix. Game 6 against Phoenix in WCF Finals in 2010. Game 4 against Denver in 09. Game 7 against the Celtics in 2010 (finding a way to win by playing stupendous defense, grabbing 15 big rebounds despite having a bad shooting night). I've got many other examples, so I really don't know what you're talking about.
i wish i could go back to that night. was in 10th grade, next day was taking SAT or something. i didn't care, i just could not believe what i was seeing. once he got to 70 it started to feel like a dream. at 80 i was just hysterical. couldn't sleep the entire night.
Remember like this shit like it was yesterday. Didn’t see this coming. Lakers was down at half and Kobe jus took off in the second half. Glad I was able to say i saw this legendary goat shit
January 2006 was the absolute height of Kobe Bryant's career as an individual player. He was on a different plane of existence at that time. Funny how Steve Nash won the MVP that year despite playing no defense whatsoever and with Kobe and Lebron both putting up crazy numbers...
@AdrianAquino22 not only did Kobe lead that 2006 lakers team to the playoffs, but led that team to a 3-1 series lead and almost upset a phoenix suns team who were one of the top 3 teams in the league, maybe the 2nd best team in the league, if Kurt Thomas doesn't hit that game tying 3 pointer for the suns in that game 6, that series would have been over, not only that, but Kobe was scoring triple doubles throughout that entire series
Incredibly he also had a game that season in which he had 62 points through 3 QUARTERS!!! and he sat out the 4th. Trust me, if Colorado didn't happen, people would have no problem crowning the best of a time because by now he would have had the corporate status to match his staggering statistics, ala MJ. He is still capable of scoring on an unprecedented level (4 consecutive 40 point games last week) he IS the greatest player of all time...
You are a dumbass and a casual basketball fan. LeBron's style is nothing like Kobe..Kobe is a pure scorer, Bron is a play maker. And you sound lame as fuck with those LeChoke and LeFlop nicknames. I bet youre 300 pounds and never stepped on a court in your life.
I was at work and a coworker came to me and said "Kobe scored 81 points tonight." I thought they were lying. Keep in mind, there was no social media during this time. So I get home later that day, turned to Sports Center and EVERYBODY was going bananas. 🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️
I remember watching this game and was like they are going to lose this game. Since nothing else was on and it was cold that winter in the chi so I kept watching the game... I was like is anyone going to stop him raptors tried everything. Nobody else on la stepped up,but kb did this is simply a classic and I dnt care what anybody says his performance was just legendary that night. And that's after this game to me they should've mailed him the MVP!! And to me kb is my 2nd greatest player oat.
Reread the part that says "The game is played so much differently today than it was in the early 90s." and think about what that means. If you try hard enough you might just begin to understand.
people kobe knows more about jordan than we all think we know kobe cant compete with mike in percentages and overall numbers but he competes with mj as far as being an overachiever and champion his name is in the breath of mj and wilt cant deny that love him or hate him
@BigTimePride If you know anything about Basketball, you know it isn't a 5 game series that gets you a championship. It's the build up prior. The season. The First 3 rounds. The Finals. Kobe averaged 28.5 PPG to Shaq's 28.7 for the regular season. Kobe averaged 29.4 PPG to Shaq's 30.4 during the playoffs that season. He also nabbed 7+ rebounds a game as a guard during the playoffs and dished 6+ assists.
@BigTimePride I'm not disregarding Shaq's physical prowess. I'm just saying Kobe was more dominant because he was much better in EVERY facet of the game. As a matter of fact, he's a better post-player than Shaq was. Shaq was limited compared to the likes of Hakeem, Duncan, etc. All he had was a drop step and a hook shot. Kobe however, had the complete offensive package. Footwork. Fundamentals. Countermoves. Unlimited Range. Speed. Hops. Everything.
Does anybody just love going through videos about sports 10 years ago just to bring back great memories
All day lol
15 years
Yes good times of watching all the good old games on tv with my dad and also watching espn classic early am I liked the nba movies on tv aswell with Dr J hosting , good times man
Me!!!
YES
RIP Stuart Scott.
Now Kobe is gone too 😞
Wtf that was already 5 years ago?
RIP Stuart Scott....Kobe breaks 80!!!
Nate Agosto yo that's right the 80 point barrier!! RIP Stu
RIP Kobe as well
Kobe is the GOAT in my book. Laker fans will always love you, like Magic.
Rip Kobe & Stu Scott!
The Greatest Of All Time!
R.I.P Kobe and Gianna we love you💛💜💛💜💛💜
Kobe averaging 45 pts in 10 games god damn!!!!
Wilt avg 50/25 for a whole SEASON my friend, God Damn!!
And still didn't get the mvp of that year smh
Now Stuart Scott is broadcasting and BOOYEAH-ing every play of Kobe and Gigi in Heaven. Rest in Heaven Kobe, Gianna, and Stuart Scott. Legends that left too soon.
Don't forget Chick Hearn and Dr Jerry Buss watching from the sidelines. Crazy to think the greatest play by play announcer, owner and player for the Lakers are all resting in paradise.
RIP Kobe & Stu Scott
RIP Kobe and Gianna.🙏❤
Imagine if social media was around this time...
It would’ve broke
Stu made SportsCenter cool to watch. I watched it to hear him describe a game or an event. I debate sports because of him. Miss you Stu #RIPStu
still can't believe that performance
As a teamplayer I wouldn't mind the team Ballhog to score 81 Points on 61% Shooting, 53% from beyond the arc and 90% from the FT Line...
Alex Nagel I mean if you’re down by 20 pts for the entire game, and nobody is making buckets except for “the team ballhog” then obviously you want to put the ball into his hands. Down by 20 the entire game, then won by 20 🤷🏽♂️ and with his amazing shooting he still managed 2 assists, 6 rebounds, 3 steals and 1 block.
Man I miss Stew Scott "the what, the how, the Oh No He Didnt"
Wow Stuart Scott makes all these new Sportscasters look generic. "Back door to Kobe who just yolks it!"
chrisnosnah espn died with hom
This was sportscenter at its peak.
Kobe is the GOAT
R.I.P Kobe Bryant. Black Mamba
"In ONE GAME he raised his scoring average from 34.8 to 35.9!"
RIP TWO legends .
RIP Kobe😥😥😥
that was legendary!!
Nash won mvp that year ..the nba is a joke
@@randysnoman He didn't play defense
He had a better season as a team whereas kobes lakers was far from playoffs
@@sterbprepper4798 Lakers were 6th seed that year.
@Joe Sacco he had a better team kobe goot no one on the tteam
@joesacco your a fucking idiot kobe averaged 35 6 6 while nash averaged 15 11
lol @ 0:03 you can see the wizards only scored 82 themselves
lmao
This and his 62 through 3 quarters are both Better than wilts 100.
I would say that Kobe Bryant's 62 points is the most impressive thing I've ever seen. It's the only time an NBA history that is known, where one player outscored an entire team. Had he kept going in that game, I am confident that Kobe would have gotten 90 points and outscored the Mavericks.
The late"Gr8"Stuart Scott(r.i.p)...with a ba duka dunk!!He was the BEST.~2$'z~
RIP Stuart Scott
you know this happened awhile ago when you look at the ticker at the bottom, and see Tracy McGrady scored 43 points
Wow,the best part is how he took so many shots without getting tired no way Michael could take 40 without takin a break. Just shows how great his will to win is
just cuz its the second most amount of points, doesnt mean its the second greatest performance. wilt chamberlain was a foot taller than everyone else and at that time the competition was NOWHERE NEAR what its at in todays game. not to mention there is no footage of the game. kobe's 81 pt performance is the greatest in history.
magic131 he is though
KOBY YOUR HANDS ARE PURE GOLD!!
Long live kobe RIP stuart Scott
GREATNESS !!
its amazing that people are still trying to hate on this
Just like when I watch Sportscenter on tv, I find myself reading the bottomline for scores and news.
Ive watched the Eight1 since Kobe dropped it. Will never forget how he said the team came out Lethargic🙏🏿
simply the greatest
@BigTimePride Kobe has stepped up in every big game I can think of. Indiana when Shaq went out. Spurs in the West Finals. Game tying 3 against Detroit. Game Winner against Phoenix.

Kobe is a monster. nuff said
Remember like this shit like it was yesterday. Didn’t see this coming. Lakers was down at half and Kobe jus took off in the second half. Glad I was able to say i saw this legendary goat shit
Rip stu Scott and Kobe bean
Kobe was a beast in the # 8
against my raptors too.. good for you kobe. win one more championship!
We love you Kobe
My left ear enjoyed this video 👍🏻
what is the name of the highlight song from the old nba games i need it lol
This is the best season in NBA history
Kobe plays like he's the only one on the court. Is a thing of beauty.
thats why kobe is da best
That's pretty sick man. Still can't believe that was true.
This is still hard to believe even 6 years later. 81 pts in an NBA game in this day and age is crazy. Just crazy.
never compare mj to kobe they are both great players in there own style of playing every player has their own approach to this wonderful game.
RIP Kobe
I agree with you, but people will never cease to hate Kobe for no reason.
This guy is simply the best basketball player ever
january is kobes best month lokk when he dropped 4 40s last week
5th 50 point game this season 2nd 60 point game this season he could've 2 80 point games in one season which is crazy
RIP STUART SCOTT RIP KOBE
Stewart Scott was the perfect anchor to narrate Kobes 81 point night ..
My Favorite Laker and Player Forever.
If you got on earphones this shit only play out the left
@YTSForever Yeah it is amazing. What's even more amazing is Steve Nash won 2 MVP trophys and has never reached the NBA Finals. Now that is amazing
he shot 50 %? holy shit thats amazing
January 2006 was the absolute height of Kobe Bryant's career as an individual player. He was on a different plane of existence at that time.
Funny how Steve Nash won the MVP that year despite playing no defense whatsoever and with Kobe and Lebron both putting up crazy numbers...
Kobe in his prime.
His 81 point game was his 666th game
2/12 in second half against okc yesterday
i heard a lot about kobe scoring 81 points but i had to see it to belive it and here it is
The single most accomplished, scoring game of all times!
As a Raptor fan,many conflicting feelings right now as i watch this. Part of me is happy but feeling kinda sad it was on Raps.Sigh
Dont worry every negitive record is on my knicks
Anthony Reece Hahaha,thank you for not letting me suffer alone.
RAPTORS got swept
@AdrianAquino22 not only did Kobe lead that 2006 lakers team to the playoffs, but led that team to a 3-1 series lead and almost upset a phoenix suns team who were one of the top 3 teams in the league, maybe the 2nd best team in the league, if Kurt Thomas doesn't hit that game tying 3 pointer for the suns in that game 6, that series would have been over, not only that, but Kobe was scoring triple doubles throughout that entire series
The best offensive basketball player in the history of basketball.......Period
Dang that boy was out there splashin
Incredibly he also had a game that season in which he had 62 points through 3 QUARTERS!!! and he sat out the 4th. Trust me, if Colorado didn't happen, people would have no problem crowning the best of a time because by now he would have had the corporate status to match his staggering statistics, ala MJ. He is still capable of scoring on an unprecedented level (4 consecutive 40 point games last week) he IS the greatest player of all time...
true competitor
I'd like to see LeChoke score 81. And don't gimme that shit that LeFlop is unselfish.
You are a dumbass and a casual basketball fan. LeBron's style is nothing like Kobe..Kobe is a pure scorer, Bron is a play maker. And you sound lame as fuck with those LeChoke and LeFlop nicknames. I bet youre 300 pounds and never stepped on a court in your life.

command center this is kangaroo boxer requesting permission to fire
Right ear lonely af
my left ear loved this video

oh god stuart scott
Reread the part that says "The game is played so much differently today than it was in the early 90s." and think about what that means. If you try hard enough you might just begin to understand.
Kobe is the best idk why people try saying he's not because of stupid ratings on 2k
He scored more than his teammates scores combined. Wow.
"Try to demoralize our opponents"...that's Kobe!
people kobe knows more about jordan than we all think we know kobe cant compete with mike in percentages and overall numbers but he competes with mj as far as being an overachiever and champion his name is in the breath of mj and wilt cant deny that love him or hate him
Some people don't remember that Ray Allen had 42 that same night and hit 8 3 pointers in the 4th and 2 OT's.
my left ear enjoyed this very much
It's scary to imagine what this Kobe could have accomplished with the team he has right now instead of the shit he had then
My left ear really enjoyed this.
@BigTimePride If you know anything about Basketball, you know it isn't a 5 game series that gets you a championship. It's the build up prior. The season. The First 3 rounds. The Finals. Kobe averaged 28.5 PPG to Shaq's 28.7 for the regular season. Kobe averaged 29.4 PPG to Shaq's 30.4 during the playoffs that season.

@ic0n29 no one has ever scored 67 points in a playoff game. What are you talking about?
It's amazing Kobe only has 1 MVP award.
kobe is the best
@BigTimePride I'm not disregarding Shaq's physical prowess. I'm just saying Kobe was more dominant because he was much better in EVERY facet of the game. As a matter of fact, he's a better post-player than Shaq was. Shaq was limited compared to the likes of Hakeem, Duncan, etc. All he had was a drop step and a hook shot. Kobe however, had the complete offensive package. Footwork. Fundamentals. Countermoves. Unlimited Range. Speed. Hops. Everything.
