<div class="quote_poster">Quoting jetlee6509:</div><div class="quote_post">kobe AVERAGED 40 PTS A GAME for 9 games</div> Yeh, that was one of the most phenomenal streak a player has every had. Kobe is probably the only guy in the game that could pull off such a performance. If anyone ever doubts Kobe's individual skills, they obviously aren't paying attention. It's just his lack of team-skills is what keep him from being compared to those other players (Jordan, Johnson, Bird, etc). Rather than leading a team, he fights the team for glory and recognition.
