    Who is the next person to have a Kobe-esque game?

    Who do you guys think will be the next person to get one of those 70+ point games? My bets are on KD. There is simply nobody who could stop him. He's nearly 7 feet tall and is crossing people over like it's nothing, and can shoot over anyone in the NBA.

    KD wont get it unless Westbrook is either hurt,sick,traded,benched,kicked out of game. No way KD will shoot that many times to get 70+ but I hope he does

        I'll answer this question in my definition of a Kobe-esque game

          I really think If he wanted to Lebron could put up a 60+ point game. If he is able to get to 31 on 14 shots Then he would be easily able to get 60+ if he really wanted to. However I don't think Lebron really desires to do that so I will say Kevin Durant.

            He's good but he's not that good. I can see him getting 60 like Gilbert Arenas.

            Im sorry. 20+ ppg game is good, but when your talkin over 70 points,

            Your talkin super next level scoring.

            Im not ready to give that output to you run-of the mill 20 ppg scorer.

            Were talkin Wilt, The Admiral, Jordan, Kobe EXTRA stuff.

            I'd give it to Durant.

              The next player who takes 24 shots a game while taking low percentage shots? I hope no one. Without the touch of an god, which is what kobe possess, that player is gone after 5 seasons.

                Who knows. He may have the ability in a few years ( to be even close) but at the same time he is a point guard. He has to distribute as well as score.

                  That's not what I mean, read the OP. I'm talking about the game he scored 81, who will even be close to that.

                    I think it would be awhile before we see a player who would even shoot enough to do that. Maybe Melo if he gets hot..

                    You have to remember most of the elite players are on contending teams right now and will never have the need to take 40+ shots in a game.

                        It would have to be a perfect storm of a guy with no conscience to shoot, a coach who would let him shoot that much, and a bad opponent with a broken spirit who wouldn't D up on him. Actually, I think the closest guy in the league right now who could do it is... Kobe, again.

                          We also have to realize that the person would have to be the selfish jerk that Kobe is.

                          So for all those that say Durant, I dont think he can be the front runner. Though I know he could if he put his mind to it.

                          So I'd have to say Westbrook. He is the ability AND mentality/ego to do it. Melo is a close second.

                            The thing is its gonna be someone with a water jumpshot.

                            And any big man that could dominate inside in the league right now couldnt go 20 for 20 from the free throw line.

                            Melo is a good choice. He can shoot and get inside buckets.

                            When Robinson went for 70 what was the climate?
                            I think the opposing team let him score just so he could beat Shaq by percentage points to get the scoring 'award'.

                            Westbrook's jumpshot isnt that good to get past 60.

                              What does it say that upon reading the title of this thread my mind immediately went to this?
