No basketball fan should've missed this game. If you did you should be ashamed of yourself.

Yes being fed the ball for an entire game in your swan song - real "genuine effort"

I would like to know stats on his field goal %. Give me justification on why he is the "greatest" after that.

Also he raped a chick so I'm not sad I missed this entitled pricks game.

Maybe greatest ball hog in history?

And people say wrestling is fake !

Letsrun should give him a black front page tomorrow!!

Maybe they aren't brainwashed like 1/2 Americans that think it's cool for pro athletes to get away with anything. He is a rapist. If you or I did the same thing we would still be (or should be) in prison. Do people just forget this stuff? I don't get how people like Kobe, Mike Tyson etc. can get away with rape & battery and still be able to keep sponsors, get movie deals and be celebrated athletes.

Yeah really, let S Curry play 40 minutes with as many FGA as Kobe and he'd have 80+... Kobe got lucky Utah wasn't playing for anything tonight...

Kobe needed 50 shots to get his points, meanwhile Steph got 46 tonight on 24 shots.

22 of 50 field

6 of 21 threes

10-12 paint.

Meh. Great career overall but this reminds me of Magic's all -star appearance.

Kobe shot 44% from the field which is 10% better than his season average. Also Utah was playing for a playoff spot, if they won and Houston lost, they would be the 8th seed.

Also he raped a girl in 2003 - bought her off and kept himself out of prison. But by all means, totally forget about what a crappy human being he is and keep supporting entitled criminal athletes

No "D"

I watched Curry vs Memphis. That guy is impressive

He is quite the team player to have the charisma to get the ball fed to him like that!

Who?

Plus, the greatest farewell sign-off ever.

"Mamba, out."

Kobe put up more shots than any player in the last 30 years.

ESPN knocked this game over to ESPN-2 because the warriors were playing for win 73.

If you love basketball, that was the game you would be watching.

Celtic fans here. Read the transcript of kobe's initial tnterrogation. He absolutely did not rape that girl. She came onto him, they started to have sex, she told him to stop, he did. She left and filed rape claim next day. The accusers story is actually substantially similar to Kobe's but alleged that he did not stop soon enough.

Well known by now that accuser had previously filed false rape claims and had history of mental instability. I don't like to put rape accusers on trial but no objective person could call what happened rape.

Kobe is an egocentric adulterer and at times a piss poor teammate. Also one of the most competitive and successful athletes on the planet. He is not a rapist.

Odds had Golden State winning like 98% of the time. Memphis never stood a chance (down by like 15 after the first quarter???). If you really wanted to see the Warriors break the record, you should have watched them beat the Spurs. That was THE game.
