<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Kobe Bryant, Allen Iverson and LeBron James have made history, as they have all assured themselves of a 30-point season. With just three games left to play, Bryant is on pace to record the seventh highest single-season scoring average of all-time. Will he do it? Will we see any more 50-point games before the season is over? Stay tuned to the scoring race and follow along with us.</div> Source
Nice job by all 3 of those players. I smell one more big game by Bryant. Lebron is probley not going to play again in the regular season. Iverson could always drop 50. So lets just wait and watch, not like we could do anything else lol.
This is cool to see. What was it, last year, two seasons ago where Peja Stojacvic averaged 25 PPG and that got him the fourth best scoring mark in the league? There was only one 30 point scorer?
Yeah I forgot Philly is in a chase for a playoff spot. Expect Iverson to be BIG in these last 3-4 games.
He's already started to play the best ball of this season. However, I don't really care about who makes it there, because both Philly and the Bulls will not have a margin of loss less than 10 points, and will lose in 4 quick games

they are all real great players and nobody can say nothing about kobe becuase his team is winning aswell
It just shows how weak the defense is becoming in the NBA. I can see someone aveaging 40 sometime soon just bc defense is becoming less and less important as the years go by.

What does that have to do with anything?</div>Cuz you were saying the defense has detiorated, and your favorite team has had one of the worst defensive outings against a player ever. I know you know the Raptors D sucks, I just thought it was kinda funny. But you were right, the defense is pretty bad nowadays.

Yea scoring is less impressive, because defense is simply garbage. I'm astounded by the laziness that defenses show these days. Add all those 'Superstar' calls refs make, and it is slightly less impressive for players to score 30+ PPG. Not taking much away however, because 35, 32, and 30 PPG is very solid
If MJ was in the league right now hed be averagin about 40.. atleast. because hed get to the line atleast 20 times, it isnt just defense its also the refs.
