Kobe Bryant scores 81 points against the Toronto Raptors on January 22, 2006.

81 POINTS... Just when you thought he was only gonna be known for three championship rings, being Shaq's arch-nemesis, and having the reputation of being Eagle, Colorado's most well-known white-trash arse-banger, Kobe Bryant had to beat the Toronto Raptors tonight and set the second all-time NBA scoring record...right behind the 100 points scored by Wilt Chamberlain against the New York Knicks in March of 1962. You go, Kobe! Now if only the Lakers reached the playoffs, and you were at least nominated as this season's MVP, then you'd be set. This came on the same night the NBA had its highest scoring game in 11 years...when the Seattle Supersonics beat the Phoenix Suns, 152-149, in two overtimes. The last 300-point game in the NBA came when Dallas beat Houston 156-147 in two overtimes on April 11, 1995. But 'nuff 'bout that. It's all about Eagle, Colorado's most well-known white trash arse-banger dropping 81 on the Canadians. Haha.

Seen here in a game in 1998, Michael Jordan says he might have fouled out before letting Kobe Bryant get to 81 points.
