I guess he was like"We ain't losing our 8th straight tonight" He just took over in the 4th and lead the Lakers to the Win in OT. That was Kobe's 4th 60 point Game.


Jordan had 3 60 point games

Wilt had 32 60 point games because he was nevermind-lol

Damn, he scored 65 points, and it took them an overtime to beat the Blazers?? :lol: If they can barely get past Portland when Kobe scores 65, then I really can't see them going very far in the playoffs. I think they'll be extremely lucky to get out of the first round.

They will be out of luck cause they'll probably end up playing the following teams Dallas, Phoenix, or San Antonio. It'll be pretty fun to see the lakers match up with the spurs again, like they did so much during the shaq era.

Amazingly, Wilt retired 34 years ago, and he STILL has more 60 point games than everyone else in the history of the NBA COMBINED!

"The field" has almost caught up with him though. I think that when Arenas scored 60+ earlier this season, it put Wilt in the lead something like 32-27 or 32-28.

(I think that this was also true of 50 point games for almost 20 years after Wilt retired...it took the rest of the NBA players that long to produce as many 50 point games as Wilt did in his career).

Wilt Chamberlain stats are not IMPRESSIVE to me at all. The fact that he scored over 60 that many times lets me know it had NO COMPETITION

Wilt's competition is far tougher than anything Shaq, for example, ever had to face.

Bill Russell was the greastest defensive player in history. And Wilt had to play against him 142 times in their 10 year rivalry.

In fact:

Hall of Fame Centers Wilt played against:

Clyde Lovellette
Bill Russell
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
Bob Lanier
Bob McAdoo
Dave Cowens
Walt Bellamy
Wes Unseld
Nate Thurmond
Bob Pettit
Elvin Hayes
Jerry Lucas
Dolph Schayes
Willis Reed

Oh wait, I forgot...these guys were all no good because NONE OF THEM had any competition! LOL

The first centers elected to the Hall of Fame that Wilt didn't play against were Bill Walton, who entered the NBA two years after Wilt retired, and Dan Issel, who played in the ABA at the tail end of Wilt's career. They were both inducted in 1993, twenty years after Wilt retired.

Bill Walton
Dan Issel
Moses Malone (inducted 2001)
Robert Parrish (inducted 2003)

Right now, that's it... a total of FOUR centers in the Hall of Fame against whom Wilt never played... Ewing, Olajuwon and Robinson will be inducted as soon as they become eligible. But obviously, there are a whole lot more Hall of Famers that Wilt played against than HOFers he didn't play against. And, with fewer teams back then, Wilt didn't just have to play a guy twice in one season, as is the case now for players in opposite conferences.

btw, if Ewing ever went against Willis Reed head to head, Reed would have DESTROYED him!

So how many centers from today's NBA will be hall of famers when they're through?

Where's Shaq's competition? Eddy Curry? ooooo, I'll bet Wilt would have been scared to go against big Eddy!

Plus, Wilt never had the luxury of playing against high school players. Today, the NBA is full of "great athletes" who don't know a thing about how to play basketball...that's why we send these guys to the Olympics and they embarrass themselves and our country by bringing home bronze medal.

In fact, we shouldn't even allow today's NBA players to wear a "USA" jersey...it's just too embarrassing!

Gee, wonder how Wilt would have done against Kwame Brown?

The NBA has two centers today who've locked up a spot in the Hall of Fame...Shaq, and Tim Duncan.. Ben Wallace has no shot.

It will be a long, long time before the HOF contains as many centers who didn't play against Wilt as it has centers who did compete against him.

Well if the competition was tougher then how could he score over 60 that many times? I'm not buying it

Could it be that he was just that good??? There's a thought.

No one is that good to score over 60 32 times and a 100 point game. No team would ever allow one player to score that many points today

No player today has the stamina that would be required to do those things. Wilt averaged 45.6 min/game over the course of his career. He even averaged 48.5 min/game during one season (he only sat out 8 minutes of one game, the result of being ejected, and played every second of each of the other 79 games that year, including all overtime periods).

His endurance was far superior to anyone who ever played ANY team sport. You would need an incredible amount of stamina to score 70 or 80 points in a game, in any era, let alone 100.... David Robinson said that the most exhausted he's ever felt was the night he scored 71 in the final game of the season. And he was a great, great athlete...And he was still 29 points away from the record. Plus, the opponent was helping him get there (because they didn't want Shaq to win the scoring title that season).

Do you know anything about the guys I listed? I'm not asking this to be insulting, don't get me wrong... but just watching ESPN is a terrible way to learn about the history of ANY sport. ESPN promotes today's players, because that's where the money is for them.

You'd be surprised how many young fans out there think that the six rings won by Michael Jordan is an all time record. When I say young, I mean high school age or younger...although there are a number of fans in their 20s who think the same thing, since they grew up watching Jordan.
