February 1, 2008
Air Canada Centre
Toronto, CA

Boxscore: http://www.nba.com/games/20080201/LALTOR/boxscore.html

Statline: 46 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal, 10-16 on jumpshots, 9-12 from inside.

2nd of a back to back coming off a tough 39 point game vs the Detroit Pistons in a close game. Yet it still seemed he was coming off a 3 week break. Kobe Bryant was a ruthless man the entire night shooting an unconscious 19-28 from the field, 4-8 from downtown while slaming down 6 monster dunks for 46 points. Every shot in the book was on display tonight.

4 hours before the game, Kobe Bryant and the Lakers had learned that Kwame Brown, Javaris Crittenton, Aaron Mckie, rights to Marc Gasol, and 2 first round picks had been dealt to the Memphis Grizzlies for Pau Gasol and a 2nd round pick in 2010. Bryant must have been pumped up before the game as he started off making all 4 of his first shots. Playing a very balanced game throughout the entire game, Kobe scored 10 points in the 1st quarter, 11 points in the 2nd quarter, 13 points in the 3rd quarte, and 12 points in the 4th quarter. Kobe made 6 consecutive shots at one point including a fadeaway baseline 3 point jumpshot over Anthony Parker. At that moment, his euphoria had scattered throughout the entire Air Canada Centre atmosphere and the Toronto Raptors had nowhere else to turn. Carlos Delfino's reaction at 3:33 says it all. As the Toronto Raptors dilute into the background, one wonders who can parallel Kobe Bryant when he is at his best. The answer is NOBODY.

Kobe at the age of 25 averaged 30, 7, 6 and 2.5 steals wuth shaq on the team (2003). Nice try though.

Why is it that, the routine moves or shots Kobe does, if someone else does (Lebron, Wade, etc) the commentators go crazy but when Kobe does it, its just routine. lol Everybody is used to his greatness that they expect even more
