LOS ANGELES, CA — Sunday was an eventful day in the world of Sports but the talk around the water cooler the next morning wasn’t about the Pittsburgh Steelers or the Seattle Seahawks victories that are sending them to the Superbowl. Instead, even the most casual sports fans wanted to talk about Kobe Bryant’s record setting game that was easily overshadowed by the two NFL playoff games.
Kobe scored 81 points Sunday in the Lakers 122-104 victory over the Toronto Raptors—the closest anybody has come to Wilt Chamberlain’s record of 100 set nearly 44 years ago in a season when the team average was 111 points per game.
The question on many people’s minds is, “Can he beat 100?”
