Did anyone actually see Kobe score 81 points? That is absolutely staggering. Marc Stein in an ESPN article, Sorry Wilt: You're No Kobe says that it is more impressive than Wilt's 100 point performance. I hate the Lakers , I can't stand Phil Jackson and I'm not a big fan of Kobe either...but 81 points is unbelievable!! So, if you saw it, tell me about it. Give me some details. And if there is a way to still see it, tell me more. Doesn't ESPN Classic do something called Instant Classics where they show this kind of stuff?
NBA tv is doing a instanct classic...they are re-showing the game on wed, thurs, and friday..you can go on ebay and buy a dvd of the game if you are interested...my thoughts on the game are absolutely increbidle...not matter if you hate him or not you have to admit that was awesome....anyways I didn't get to see the game either but my brother tivoed it and it sending me a copy...

Tadd, Thanks! I'm not a subscriber to NBA.tv but I'll check out ebay and see if I can get a dvd. Good lead.

I didn't know it was happening because I was watching the Suns lose to the Sonics in double overtime. I'm no expert, but 81 points seems like a lot.
