Kobe's 50+ streak ended at four.

Los Angeles Lakers' Kobe Bryant ''only'' registered 43 points in yesterday's Lakers victory over the Golden State Warriors. His number of 50+ point games was then stopped at four.

There is no doubt that Kobe made his mark in the NBA history books with that great streak. Only the legendary Wilt Chamberlain did better than what he accomplished all week long. Bryant has time in his career to repeat and maybe get even closer to that impressive seven 50+ point games record established in the 1961-1962 season.

Kobe the unstoppable!

Kobe Bryant of the Los Angeles Lakers has done it again. For a 4th game in a row he managed to register at least 50 points in a game. Only Wilt Chamberlain (with 7 in a row in 1961-1962) did better than Kobe in that department.

The Lakers defeated the N.-O. Hornets 111-105. Bryant registered his 50th point of the game with just over 5 minutes to go in the 4th quarter.

Can Kobe keep it up and break the record of the great Chamberlain?

Kobe does it again!

Kobe Bryant of the Los Angeles Lakers became only the 4th NBA player to ever register three 50+ point games in a row. He joins a select club formed by Elgin Baylor, Wilt Chamberlain and Michael Jordan who are the only other players to ever score 50 points in three consecutive games.

It is now a formality in my mind: Kobe will enter the basketball hall of fame at the end of his career. Now, can Kobe do it again and upgrade his streak to four consecutive?

The answer tonight versus the N.-O. Hornets.

What the ????

Kevin Durant, a young Texas University basketball player is drawing so much attention that already a NBA general manager and an owner were fined. Danny Ainge, general manager of the Boston Celtics (30 000$ fine) sat with Durant's mother during a tournament and was fined for that.

Now more recently, Micheal Jordan owner of the Charlotte Bobcats (15 000$ fine) mentionned last week to the press that he was interested in drafting a young prospect from Texas University.

A rule in the NBA doesn't allow owners, managers or coaches to talk about players that are not already declared available for a NBA draft. Talk about a strange rule... Just imagine the NHL fining teams because the team owners said that they were interested in drafting Sydney Crosby as he was still in the junior ranks.

Is it me or this rule is really really dumb?

Kobe is on fire!

I usually never talk about any NBA action in here. I used to be a die hard Michael Jordan fan when I was at high school and didn't watched basketball much since he retired. But the current event has really caught my attention.

Kobe Bryant of the Los Angeles Lakers has registered two 50+ points games in a row. After scoring 65 points on friday, Kobe has scored 50 yesterday against the Timberwolves.

The last time a Laker player achieved a similar performance was way back... In 1962, Elgin Baylor registered three 50+ points games in a row.

A stellar performance from Kobe.
