Most Career 50 Point Games1. Wilt Chamberlin - 1182. Michael Jordan - 313. Elgin Baylor - 174. Kobe Bryant - 165. Rick Barry - 14I'd just like to point out that no one, ever, will catch the Stilt. He has more career 50 point games than 5 through 2 combined.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (DevinHester23 @ Mar 20 2007, 03:00 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Chamberlin also has like 30 something 60 point games</div>He averaged 50 points a game one season. The guy was more dominant than anyone else ever.
now, im not trying to take anything away from him, but wilt also didnt play against some of the guys other big men have to play today.with that said, he woulda still been dominant.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (The Punisher @ Mar 20 2007, 04:08 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>If he played today, he would be "just another big man".</div> :LMAO: He'd be just as good as, if not better than, Shaq if he played today. And don't be pullying up "well Shaq is an inch taller and 40 pounds heavier" because Wilt was FAR more athletic. Present me with Hakim, Shaq, Wilt, and Robinson in their primes, I'd take Wilt, then Hakim, then Shaq, then David.

If Nash was gone for a whole season, Barbosa would lead the league in 3-pointers as his replacement. Nash is good, but highly overated. The Mavs got better when he left.

The Mavs got better b/c Dirk took over, and Devin Harris and Josh Howard emarged. If Dirk could hit his free throws in the clutch, I would have him as my MVP, but Dirk keeps choking in the clutch, so it goes to Nash

Pheonix adding Amare, Bell, and Diaw didn't do anything at all... nope. It was all Nash. I mean, 3 different starters don't make a difference when the little white guy comes in to replace Starbury....
And besides, Kobe is a one-man wrecking crew. I suppose Jordan shouldn't have gotten any MVP's, b/c he had Pippen, Rodman, and Grant. Or the Mailman shouldn't have b/c he had Stockton. I've never seen a one-man wrecking crew get the MVP

I've never seen a one-man wrecking crew get the MVP</div>Thank you for supporting my argument. He's earned the MVP by carrying an otherwise lottery pick team in the Western Conference.And without Jordan, the Bulls would have still been a badass team, but it was Jordan. You know, throwing those 50 point games all the time and always hitting those game winning shots.... just like Kobe is doing now WITHOUT the talented crew... which is even more impressive.And if it were today's NBA back then, people would want Stockton to win MVP over Malone. That's like choosing Nash over Marion.
But there is a difference. All these players involved their teammates in the game. Kobe doesn't. That is the main reason why. Jordan involved his team. The Mailman involved his team. Nash and Dirk involve their team. Kobe doesn't, which is why when his teammates get a chance, they do good. Remember the 62 point game?? No assists. The 81 point game?? 2
