Kobe Bryant 32 points 9 assists 6 steals vs Rockets 2005-06

Phil Jackson and Kobe together never lost 5 or more games in a row in a lifetime. It stayed that way for the game as the Lakers lost 4 disappointing road games in a row.

This game was part of a mini streak in which Kobe tried on defense and it clearly showed in this game. In the 1st quarter, Kobe went off to a slow start distributing to his teammates while playing tough D. He had 3 steals in the 1st quarter alone which is proof that when he tries, he is one of the best defenders in the game. He played a little more aggressive in the 2nd quarter hitting some jumpers while collecting 4 steals by halftime. Then he exploded in the 3rd quarter. He swished 6 shots in a row, against the worse defense he faced for a long time. While Kobe was hot, Tracy Mcgrady on the other hand was 4-15 and struggling from the field on one on one coverage. Kobe then played an equal passing and scoring game in the 4th while giving Brian Cook his second greatest scoring performance in his career scoring 27 points on pick and rolls with Kobe.

Kobe ended the game with a statline of 32/9/6 steals while outplaying his counterpart Tracy Mcgrady who scored 11 points on 5-17 shooting.
