yeah thats game scores, i wanna see the list for quarter scores, i dont remember jordan ever hitiing 30 in a quarter...

 

[nvd001]

i know that 30 in a quarter is the 4th highest quarter score in history, and his haul of 62 is the highest score in the NBA since the 'Admiral's' effort of 71 back in 1994!! also makes him the 19th player to ever pass the 60+ mark!!

 

[kidd05]

Jackson is a noob. He shouldve let Kobe play more.

 

[Benny J]

And he did it in three quarters...

I would like to know how many minutes the other players on that list played for the points they scored???

 

[chadjaja]

Even with another quater 39 to break the record is a tough ask even for Kobe tonight. The record is safe forever me thinks, it will never get broken. Although Wilts 55 rebounds is a better record.

I'd like to be in the change rooms after the game and hear what is said after Kobe leaves. Would be interesting stuff.

 

[kidd05]

*Kobe leaves locker room*

Lamar Odom: "Man, that guy is unbelievable aye? I don't even have to shoot the ball and I still get paid millions!"

Smush Parker: "Yeah man, I love this job!"

Luke Walton: "Im so gonna get his autograph later after he showers! I'm so proud to be a Laker!"

Ron Artest: "I AM TEH TRU WARIER! WERD."

LOL, Charlotte and Indiana were playing too??? lol.

I'm assuming that Mavs didnt get back up???

 

[kidd05]

Lol wrong players.

 

[lockymac]

Maybe...

Lamar Odom: "Since when did the triangle offense become a no passing offense?"

Devean George: "He won't score 62 next game... he might just have a little 'accident'...."

Slava Medvedenko: "Anyone know why I am still in the league?"

Von Wafer: "Seriously, stop calling me "Triple""

Kwame Brown: "I knew I should have stayed in School!! "

Phil Jackson: "This is all going in my next book......"

"The NBA record for points in a quarter is 33 by George Gervin of San Antonio in 1978. Denver's David Thompson scored 32 in a quarter the same season, and Wilt Chamberlain 31 for Philadelphia in 1962, when he set the single-game NBA record with 100 points. "

"I've never seen anyone score 62 points," Lakers center Chris Mihm said. "That third quarter was something else. He was scoring at will."

Bryant takes out anger on Mavericks

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Kobe Bryant was seething as he met the media after a frustrating loss.

But Bryant released his anger 48 hours later, scoring a career-high 62 points in three quarters to lead the Los Angeles Lakers to a 112-90 victory Tuesday night over the Dallas Mavericks.

"I was so frustrated from the last loss that I just tried to will us to victory," Bryant said, referring to the defeat Sunday by Houston.

He made an attempt to hide his frustration after that game, but a clenched jaw and narrowed eyes gave him away. Two nights later, the subject matter was much more enjoyable for Bryant.

"It wasn't an `on' feeling," he explained. "I have had those feelings before, where you feel like you can hit anything you throw up.

"Tonight was a different feeling. It was just a feeling of willfulness. Even if they were going to send two guys at me, I was going to attack them and let them know I was coming after them and just send a message."

Lakers coach Phil Jackson, who coached Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls to six championships in the 1990s, was duly impressed.

"It was quite an exhibition for three quarters Kobe put on tonight," Jackson said. "I've seen a few 60-point ballgames in my time, but none of them had been done by the third quarter."

Bryant scored 15 points in the first period, 17 in the second, and a franchise-record 30 in the third before taking a seat for good with the Lakers leading 95-61.

"His 30-point third quarter was incredible," Jackson said.

The previous Lakers record for points in a quarter was 24, shared by Bryant and Hall of Famers Jerry West and Elgin Baylor.

The NBA record for points in a quarter is 33 by George Gervin of San Antonio in 1978. Denver's David Thompson scored 32 in a quarter the same season, and Wilt Chamberlain 31 for Philadelphia in 1962, when he set the single-game NBA record with 100 points.

Baylor scored a franchise-record 71 points on Nov. 15, 1960, at New York. Bryant's total is the sixth-highest in club history and the most for the Lakers since Chamberlain scored 66 at Phoenix on Feb. 9, 1969.

The 27-year-old Bryant, who brought a 31.3-point average into the game, shot 18-of-31, including 4-of-10 from 3-point range, and made 22 of 25 foul shots while playing only 33 minutes.

He scored 24 points in the 76-74 loss to Rockets -- a total he matched in the first 16 1/2 minutes of this game.

"I told them, `I'll fix it tonight,' " he said, referring to his teammates.

And fix it, he did.

"I've never seen anyone score 62 points," Lakers center Chris Mihm said. "That third quarter was something else. He was scoring at will."

The Lakers outscored the Mavericks 42-17 in the period to break the game open.

"He had it all working tonight," Mavericks coach Avery Johnson said. "It was like he was in the gym by himself, working on all of his moves. He got to the free-throw line, he made 3s, he made in-between shots, he just got on one of those incredible rolls.

"We tried everything. We tried different people on him, we tried giving him different looks, and he pretty much outscored us by himself."

That's literally what happened -- when Bryant left the game, he had outscored the Mavericks by himself, 62-61.

"It was a 30-point basketball game at that point and that's not the spirit of the game," Jackson said. "I did ask Kobe if he wanted to go back in and contend for the (franchise) record. He asked me what I thought, and I said, "It's a 30-point game.' "

Bryant said afterward there was no reason for him to return.
