Jordan 69 pt game vs Kobe 81 point game...which was more impressive?

[Dwight Howard]

kobe. its a big difference from scoring 69 and 81. that's 12 points. scoring 50 is outstanding. 60 is an incredible feat, 70 is once in a lifetime type of thing..but 80 is unheard of

 

[The Goodz]

of course the kobe stans and their infatuation with points.

all around game MJ shyts on Kobe, Kobe had 12 more points, while MJ had triple rebounds and assists and more steals.

is this even a real question

of course it has to be Jordan he did it against Cleveland which was a playoff team
while Kobe did it again a team that won only like 20 games

By that logic Kobe 63 vs Mav's >>> Jordan

Didn't Kobe also score 65 against Dallas, the same team that went to the Finals that year, in only 3 quarters

81 is greater than 69 so i have to go with that. I know Jordan was in the playoffs and playing against the Celtics but 12 more points is 12 more points.

It was against the Cavs.......but Jordan also needed OT as well to reach that number. Kobe scored 81 points in regulation

[Piff Huxtable]

jordan's 63 game was better than both... playoffs vs the celtics.. not one point scored from 3

This could easily be the greatest game in Jordan’s career. Jordan scored 63 points in a double overtime playoff game against the Boston Celtics. This is still the NBA record for most points scored in a playoff game, but what makes this game so great is more than that.

Let’s start with the competition. Now one thing about Jordan is that he saved his best for the best. The 1985-86 Boston Celtics team is arguably the greatest team in NBA history. This team had a 67-15 record, including a 40-1 record at home. It featured five Hall of Fame players (Larry Bird, Kevin McHale, Robert Parish, Dennis Johnson and Bill Walton). The team was third in Offensive Rating and first in Defensive Rating.

Scoring 63 points against a team like that is no easy task, especially when one of those players (Johnson) made the All-Defensive Team multiple times. This was even more difficult because it was just Jordan’s second season. Not only that, but he missed 64 games, and he still had one of the greatest games in NBA history. He also added five rebounds, six assists, three steals and two blocks. What makes this scoring performance even more impressive is the fact that Jordan didn’t even have a single three-point shot.

thread title says, whose game was better, not which scoring output was better.

you kobe fans and your stanning for points is disturbing at best. Lets dismiss MJ was four assists away from a triple double that game and focus on just points.
