Kobe Bryant 81 Points (HD)

Kobe scores 81 points.

[@sportsteve24]

KOBE IS THE GREATEST PLAYER TO PLAY THE GAME. Where all my laker fans at?

[@snipinmonsta]

Kobe is defenitly top 10

[@AdsE462]

MJ then Kobe you can't argue with the stuff MJ was able to do consistently

[@claudedemur3799]

MJ wasn't good he was just fun to watch that's why MJ only scored 69 in one game really MJ is just overrated look at magic or dr j Bernard king those r ball playeds

[@AdsE462]

Kobe had a better jump shot than MJ but that is it MJ had everything else over kobe

[@TheRandomPatatoe]

Kobe was is and was in top 5 best player

[@Dougsheehan95]

People complaining about Kobe not passing the ball. The man was on fire. I can almost guarantee that Phil, in the huddle, was telling the team to get Kobe the ball. You run with something while it's hot.

[@BlazemyHaze22]

OH MY GOD EVERYONE SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT THE DEFENSE!!! Kobe was making crazy threes and pull up jumpers with hands in his face. He was in a zone and nobody could've stopped him that night. Greatest NBA performance of all-time.

[@anthonybryant4944]

He's the best player in the NBA, it's an honor to have him on the Lakers!

[@nash292]

Yes , it's luck for LA fans have met Kobe in LA in this century.

[@anthonybryant4944]

nash yang Kobe's living his physically physically and mentality, taking care of his two daughters and his wife from high school! This year will be his last year, I'll miss his smiling face.

[@abualzuaree]

OMG......unbelievable... I dont understand why anyone thinks kobe is trash, he scored *81 points and his shooting was at 60% from the field* .... THAT IS *A.M.A.Z.I.N.G*

[@SubTheGamer]

omg

[@okayokay3776]

stg!

[@jacobhazswag]

Sub! :D

[@jbenito4912]

Sub the gamer

[@kismet1085]

I'm always in awe everytime I watch this. Though I'm always gonna be MJ's fan, I have to give respect to what Kobe's accomplishments in the game.

[@898hyyjn5]

The legendary day Kwame brown and Kobe Bryant combined for 84 points

[@dylam541]

Kwame brown pure beast with the 3 points

[@FranciscoRodriguez-ww2bh]

Lmao

[@pat45greg47]

Kobe was robbed the mvp that year

[@godjustspoke]

Kobe is a legend. the whole "ball hog" story is an internet rumor. Considering shaq played with kobe and they won 3 championships its virtually impossible to say he "didnt pass" the ball. all shaq did was dunk and most of these came from passes from guess who?kobe. When he won the championship with pau who was passing pau the ball all those times? Kobe's a passers,always been. Someone got jealous kobes game was complete,they couldnt find a weakness in his game so they made one up and said "he doesnt pass". Thats how that rumor got started. Jordan took more shots than his team mates and no one says "jordan was a ball hog". Its called taking over the game. Its exactly what kobe did here in his 81 point game.

[@Gladstone_21]

Wow I love Kobe ! His the best!

[@ERWINISMAIL]

good job legend nba

[@nicka2702]

lebron vs kobe through my perspective (for those who compare them) short game- kobe mid range- kobe 3-pointer- kobe teammate- lebron (slight edge) slasher- lebron defender- lebron rebounding- lebron leadership- kobe iso- kobe passer lebron I'd say they are both great players but when it comes to offensive ability it's kobe all day.

[@a5miranda]

Whoa kobe is one of the best defenders ever

[@nicka2702]

like I said my opinion man. When all is said and done it will be a fact that either one or the other was better.

[@getoutnow321]

Kobe better on offense?? maybe he got more skills, ''clutch'', footwoork than LeBron but at the end of the day: LeBron averaging career; 27.5 points per game with FG .497% Kobe ; 25.5 points per game with FG .454% How ironic that Kobe can score 81 points in a game and won just 2 times scoring titles in 17 seasons!!!

[@nicka2702]

one thing you don't take into account is that Kobe has 18 years under his belt and Lebron has 11 years. So for my example stats don't really matter it's all opinion.

[@yichengwang6236]

Jason Wahlberg and the first and second year of kobe career is on the bench . less than 10 points per game you know

[@poshko41]

Not a Kobe fan, but this was incredible...

[@JingyuTan]

I watch this video over and over again but still hard to believe that. Amazing!!

[@bmwbaby90]

He has restored my love for this game....I'm ready for the new season!!!

[@InvertedFreeSolo]

Most impressive thing I've seen on a basketball court...and I'm a Celtics fan.

[@Moog_us]

***** jordan played just as shitty teams and didnt get 81 points. and trust me he tried.

[@InvertedFreeSolo]

Jonny van Essen Exactly, players like Jordan, Bird, Iverson, McGrady, Carter, Pierce and now Lebron, Wade, Melo, Durant and Curry play lottery teams all the time and don't drop 81. It just doesn't happen. This performance was unreal, regardless of who it was against. (GO CELTICS)

[@InvertedFreeSolo]

***** I'm sorry, so your argument is that he plays hard all the time, and that's a bad thing.

[@maxschlepzig641]

This is *the* greatest scoring performance ever. Comparing this to Wilt's is blasphemy. Wilt had the physical presence which was unmatched at the time, allowing him to do whatever he wants. Not to mention there were only 8 teams he had to face, which really has nothing to do with his 100 point game. But the distinction is clear. Kobe is 6'6, has no physical advantage over anyone at his position. He can't just go under the basket and lay it up or dunk it. It s sad how overlooked this performance was. This is one of the most epic performances in sports history.

[@Ball3R855]

Kobe will always be my favorite player and I will be a laker fan for life and will never move from LA. Seat coast son.

[@ChescoYT]

This is AMAZING!

[@brysonsnow4331]

No doubt, his greatest performance of his entire career and the second greatest performance in NBA history, this will be remembered as his top all time performances after he retires.

[@nickpagano7134]

What's the first greatest? The 100? I think MJ's 69 was more impressive than Kobes. MJ had 18 reb, 6 ast and 4 stl to go along with it. Kobe had no other stats.

[@shivumagarwal]

then go watch MJ's 69 point video and gtfo

[@nickpagano7134]

vroomvroom Why? I can't watch both?

[@BrotherShine2]

Unlike MJ and Bron, Kobe never had a championship level team around him during his prime years (2004-2007). But if he didn't have Kwame Brown and Smush Parker, this game probably wouldn't have happened.

[@BrotherShine2]

Mike ThaGamer I agree that MJ made the guys around him better, but lets not downplay Pippen. Especially in that first 3 peat. Jordan led the way, but Pippen was excellent and they had championship level role play from guys like Horace Grant.

[@SESSHOUMARU11]

Mike ThaGamer lets not downplay craig hodges, bj armstrong or john paxon or steve kerr. pure shooters. lets not down play horace grant or dennis rodman(champion before the bulls with detroit) best rebounder in the game at that time. lets not downplay ron harper...really didnt have a championship team...really...scottie pip, one of the 50 greatest players...did kobe have one of the 50 greatest players of all time on his team when he won in 2009-10 back to back...no

[@SESSHOUMARU11]

how am i delusional...i said mike had a great team. but more importantly what these teams have in common is the elements to win it all in a way that worked for that particular team with those players. but none of those players on kobes team are 50greatest. isnt that what i said...calm yourself. also mike played with pretty much a championship caliber team most of his prime and on (in chicago) by 89 they pretty much had all of the pieces that they needed. kobe had good runs with teams but kept rebuilding. like kobe said, hes jealous of tim duncan that spurs kept their team together.

[@SESSHOUMARU11]

im not making comparisons im saying mike pretty much had a championship team around him whereas kobe went through phases of ups and downs. shaq was on his way down and kobe on his way up, shaq didnt work as hard as kobe so whatever i dont care about the shaq scenario or if kobe got him traded or not, and if you really believe KOBE got shaq traded than u must be a big kobe fan, or you think jerry bus is an idiot, cuz if kobe alone got him traded, then how good is kobe, how powerful is kobe...you said it not me. kobe earned those last 2 rings and he can be selfish, i dont care i just appreciate his skill on the floor, i dont care about his personal characteristics. stop hating a guy you never met

[@SESSHOUMARU11]

doesnt take anything away from kobe tho. and greg popovich can kiss my ass. what about david stern stopping that chris paul deal...

[@shaundhill214]

Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan are the kings of NBA history. Every time I play ball with me team I look up to these guys that one day I could be just like them.

[@DaCunningMicrobe]

This video never gets old

[@steven4570]

I think If he had actually tried in the 1st half kobe wouldve shattered wilts record.

[@DoUEvenLift]

He scored 26 points in the first half.... In what world is a 26 point half "not actually trying"?

[@steven4570]

DoU EvenLift well not trying in relation to how he did in the second half. he didnt take near as many shots or take over like he did in the second half. if he had done what he did in the 2nd half in the 1st he wouldve made a 100 easy...dude was unstoppable that night

[@DoUEvenLift]

steven4570 1. He scored 26 in the first half, that's a great half, scoring 26 in a game is good much less in half that. He was obviously trying and trying hard at that, he just never got into the scoring groove he did later on in the game. Not to mention when he caught fire in the 3rd the Lakers just kept feeding him the ball basically every trip down making it easier for him to score more. 2. He scored 55 in the 2nd, the amount of energy it takes to put up 55 in one half is virtually impossible to duplicate, even if he would've went crazy in the first he wouldn't have had enough energy to drop 55 in the second. Even if he woulda put up 44 in the 1st & 55 in the second(which is damn near impossible) he still wouldn't have got it. Scoring that much is tiring you know, in theory what you're saying makes sense but not in reality. And even if he would've dropped 100 or more, he wouldn't have done it easily or shattered the record, he woulda dropped like 102 MAX

[@Sham_TheGod3]

How many 3's did he hit this game?

[@davideberetta632]

7 of 13

[@Sham_TheGod3]

Davide Beretta Thank you

[@dr_quantum_phd8599]

i think they are magnets inside the rim when kobe has the ball

[@agentcollado23]

this never gets old

[@cubaldo6]

You're right. It seemed impossible to hurdle but if one puts his heart on it, the unattainable becomes a reality. You can see the passion and love he has for the game and the team.

[@Byrd4110]

Just think how much he could of got if he played the 4th quarter in Dallas smh Kobe The God!!

[@jamesbrook7440]

he is a beast

[@jamesbrook7440]

thats true wilt made the most points in one game and had a average of 50 point per game for 1 whole season.However im a fan of julius erving

[@snipinmonsta]

Plus wilt played when 6'9 was big and he was 7'2

[@jamesbrook7440]

ikr

[@Plmncvb]

I don't even really follow the NBA anymore, and I'm not sure if Kobe Bryant is even a likeable guy or a scuzz...that having been said, this was one of the greatest one-man exhibitions in sports history and you have to give the man his due. There aren't too many sports contests/games I would want to be in a first-row seat for outside of this one. Talk about getting your money's worth when you went to THIS game, wow! Well done, Mr. Bryant, well done!

[@nickwilliams7607]

I'm a spurs fan for life. 2014 NBA CHAMPIONS!!!! ........but that was incredible.

[@diabl02]

Can't believe steve nash won mvp over kobe that year. I know that he was deserving of it, but not more than kobe?!? SMH

[@Luciferus200581]

Whether you like him or not, or you think Lebron or someone else is better... you can't deny that 81 points is an insane number in today's game and only something a gifted player would be able to do. Also even if the Raptors are playing shitty D, it's impressive.

[@bsimmons4284]

I remember the day I saw the stat line for this game. I was brushing my teeth, getting ready for work. I saw it and assumed 81 was a misprint. When I found out he really dropped 81 and not 18 I was was at a lost of words. I couldn't believe it lol.

[@TheJakuza300]

EPIC!!! Just amazing Kobe is gonna be one of the tip 5 players to ever play in the NBA

[@jifyum07]

he could've gotten 100 if he tried in the first half

[@Oshieez]

I was just wondering why theyre comparing modern players to wilt. I was playing nba 2k and it said that he had almost 60 fgs a game compared to our 20 per game. Its a completely different era

[@thatonekidreef]

Yea. You're 100% right. Taking 60+ shots a game and scoring 90 or 100 points is definitely impressive.. Wilts 100 point game he was 36 of 63 from the field. Kobe's 81 point game he was 28 for 46 from the field. Kobe shot a FAR higher percentage, took 17 LESS shots, and still only scored 19 points less than Wilt did. Kobe had a FAR more efficient and you could easily argue a BETTER game than Wilt and his 100. Had Kobe taken 17 more shots, a couple 3's mixed in, even going 9 for 17 on those shots a few 3's is like 22 more points pushing his total to 103 points if he would have been as big of a ball hog as Wilt was in his 100 point game. But people see 81 from Kobe and say it just proves he was/is a ball hog and takes too many shots and its the only reason he scored 81. But people marvel over Wilt Chamberlain and say it was the best performance ever. The Saber-metrics of it all would say Kobe played a better and more efficient game; and I would have to agree.

[@MuchjieMan56]

Tim Hooper Also, when Wilt scored 100, there wasn't an off. 3 second violation

[@Yoni123]

Brandon Brown also in Wilts era half of the players where white guys who were in about the same shape as your drunk uncle shooting hoops in the driveway...

[@thatonekidreef]

Yoni123 LMAO! and so spot on lol

[@papatkbitch6494]

Tim Hooper I would also say Wilt was like an adult dunking on children and smacking the ball away like you do to your kid brother. Kobe was playing against bosh and other decent folk.

[@noahburgessrocks]

This is an example of leadership, if the lakers didn't have him this night they would have lost by 20+ he can single-handedly carry a team. Yes I am a heat fan but I call Kobe the greatest of all time

[@joeypeach5593]

what a bandwagoner

[@imsljr420]

yup just like he carried them to a 1st round elimination

[@cherylemelrose6053]

Awesome Kobe..MVP

[@mattratliff7102]

Lmao at the kobe haters on here. Yall wouldnt put up 20 against middle schoolers. Hate him or love him he is still in the NBA record books while yall still hatin from behind the grill at burger king.

[@Kwaviddong]

Don't get how some people can say Paul Gasol will not be a hall of famer. A lot of guys have been admitted for less than what Pau has.

[@nash292]

really great videos and the player Kobe performed awesome in his time and zone , It's amazing !

[@Prophet293]

that night, Kobe had 2 career highs: 81 points and 2 assists

[@jordanscott415]

MJ, Kobe, Bird, Johnson, Kareem, chamberlain, and miller. In that order.

[@orangafricano8424]

Jordan Scott you mean magic johnson? the hiv guy? hahaha

[@jordanscott415]

Orang Africano yeah magic johnson. one of the greatest athletes to ever play

[@dimezfresh9697]

Reggie miller?

[@Destruction-1990]

Ankushmeet Nijjar yes Reggie Miller ! why you asking ?

[@diabl02]

LeBron couldn't even dream of doin this

[@XBR4Da]

he probably could get 70+, but he prefers to help his teammates.

[@assmane999]

I remember watching this game. So glad he did it against the Raptors because I wouldn't have been watching if it was against a different team.

[@HulkVahkiin]

One of my most favorite nights.

[@KungaMatata]

Haha Bosh the dinosaur in another historic moment watching his opponent drop 81 on his team!! Hahahaha

[@dannyboy20527]

i'm three minutes in and none of his shots have touched the rim yet...

[@fergwonder]

Never ever be broken

[@user-ri3lj7lx4x]

its amazing!!!

[@ButterBroPSY]

Kobe Bryant is slightly better than Lebron James when he was young. Sorry Lebron James' fans

[@wowjelol1265]

It's ok :(

[@ButterBroPSY]

Antonio Burnett You rock

[@svlotoy]

Slightly better? 😂 Premadona LeBron couldn't and will never come close to the greatness of Kobe

[@mclovin1546]

​@@svlotoyIts been 10 years... don't think he's coming back to watch you deep throat kobe lmao 😂😂😂​

[@leolion2216]

Kobe , definitely untouchable

[@khalidnawabi7188]

I will take 63 points by jordan in the playoff vs Boston then this Raptors team . It's a shame no one is playing defense in the raptor team

[@rickwilson3703]

But the lakers were down a lot of points and kobe led them the whole way back.

[@kalee6]

There is a behind story on that. Kobe wasnt really shooting 3s that well on previous games. Raptors' coach told his players to let him shoot 3s but try not to give Kobe space on his 2pointer jump shots. They werent guarding him hard on 3s on purpose.

[@DemonXY2J]

adfadsfas No he didnt.

[@kismet1085]

It was the Raptors coach's fault that Kobe scored 81. In an interview with Jalen Rose, He said that he told Sam Mitchell that they have to do something and double team Kobe. But Sam insisted on playing Kobe one on one. And his decision resulted as the 2nd highest scoring in the NBA.

[@SESSHOUMARU11]

watch that game in boston with mike...no one and i mean NO ONE was athletically even able to compete in the same realm as mike on that boston team. kobe was playing against guys his size or taller who were able to keep up with him athletically. kobe did that on pure skill. not saying mike didnt but look at some of his 60 plus games...who is guarding him. mike usually had either a strength advantage, a height advantage or a speed advantage on most of the players guarding him. who did mike have to shoot over. kobe is literally shooting with a hand drapped in his face on multiple occasions and nothing but BOTTOM. jordans best was 69 against mark price and craig elo and it was done in overtime. gtf outta here. when it comes to getting hot kobe is second to none. and jordan never got 62 in 3quarters. even phil himself said kobe had to make harder shots than mike

[@MrHumble22]

I have witnessed greatness !

[@onii_meme]

Why do ppl come here and hate? This video was made to remember this great game and watch how history was made that day. You're supposed to watch this and shut up. Aren't you guys basketball lovers? Enjoy this, I'm not exactly sure when something like this will happen again...

[@yshiafernandez5056]

Kobe is unstoppable

[@HypheBoy7]

If he woulda attempted more shots in the first half he coulda dropped 100 or more

[@BronxYTB]

One of the greatest too ever play the game!

[@andylan4034]

He's amazing, he's a legend

[@froiranaguilar447]

Kobe y wayyyy better then Jordan no doubt about it he just a beast

[@joshwirick70]

Thats a joke.

[@mannyh7883]

Josh Wirick is not a joke and Kobe became all time scoring leader and defeating Jordan

[@7homes]

but he couldn't beat jordan in a 1on1 :o

[@mackysalinas5066]

7homes Have you seen them play 1 on 1 dumbass??

[@7homes]

Macky Salinas yes why old times ? like he was 19, why am i a dumbass now ? dumbass

[@GeaCooL]

ball hog huh ? his team is down by 18 , he make them get able to won that game with his 81 points thats what u called carrying the team . Atleast show some respect boy

[@mentaigiant1315]

atleast show some respect boy. foreals haha

[@jakel5670]

i love Kobe

[@LeGiiTWillie]

"Kobe with the quietest 21 points." "Kobe might have to score 50 tonight for the Lakers to win." EPIC foreshadowing. "Kobe breaks his free-throw streak." No fucks given.

[@nickzhang5130]

Ewww EVERYONE knew kobe deserved to win the MVP that season but.... Kobe was robbed no doubt, should've hav 3 MVPs next to his name

[@swayjacob7778]

Its MVP not best player in the league award.

[@Ulordk5]

swayjacob777 I'm a Nash fan but I still think Kobe should have won mvp over him. Kobe was the most valuable player no doubt. No one that year except him could have carried that Lakers team to the playoffs

[@529Fatman529]

CP3 is better than Curry

[@510YOLO]

hell no

[@thatonekidreef]

Umm No. I love watching CP3 but Steph is on a whole other level and still getting better.

[@livetoroblox]

WhyuHateOnTheBest Carl Lol, So incorrect. 7th, 4th, and 5th

[@YOMARISCOOL123]

livetoroblox hes first in three pointers

[@Lookatjojo]

You must've lost your got damn mind if you think CP3 is better than Curry. That statement would be wrong in any universe! Get tf outta here with that shit.

[@TheAbercrombieMusic]

God damn 81 points...Kobe is truly a beast!

[@JM-co8hw]

Greatest individual performance ever!

[@Clevertp95]

They should divide the most scoring records between Modern NBA period and Old NBA period. could be after 1990 and before.

[@llullwllallkll]

i miss this dude 😢

[@jayxstar475]

Kobe will Always be the best

[@HotSausage511]

Amazing~~~~~~

[@2013YOLO]

The feeling of being on the whole game has to be amazing.

[@123Mathzak]

And I am a bulls fan, but not even Michael Jordan could rival Kobe as far as shooting the basketball, Kobe is the GOAT in that regard. He is the only Laker to win 1+ rings without another HOF (has 2 without another HOF). Top 5 player all-time, arguably greatest Laker of all time.

gerizzyYMcrew on my opinion

[@cjrich184]

gerizzyYMcrew When ever you rate a player its your opinion. so you thinking kobes not # 2 is your opinion

[@cjrich184]

gerizzyYMcrew anyway kobes at least top 10. not 20 I mean come on look at his highlights and stats and it will show you why

[@WyattKittle]

gerizzyYMcrew The facts support Kobe's achievements have more weight than Jordan's. So you might not want to go down that road.
