Kobe Bryant 55 points 15-29 fg
9-13 3pt 16-18 ft 5 rebounds 3
assists 3 steals 0 blocks vs
Wizards 2002-2003. There is a
misconception that Michael
Jordan was playing defense in
this game, while Michael 'air'
Jordan did play defense on
Kobe for a handfull of plays,
the majority of the defense
played on Kobe was by Jerry
Stackhouse, Tyronn Lue, Bryon
Russell Juan, Dixon and Larry
Hughes. Tyronn Lue and Jerry
Stackhouse were the only two
players who played defense on
Kobe for more than 10 game
minutes. I originally thought
Kobe torched Jordan but the
video uploader here on youtube
lied. Unfortunately this 55
point game was tainted on
youtube but Kobe did not miss
very many shots so it is a
great great effort! I also do
not know what kind of coach
would put Tyronn Lue on
Kobe.The last game that I
could remember where Michael
Jordan and Kobe Bryant played
one on one was on November 8,
2002. Michael Jordan played
for 30 minutes and was 9-14 fg
7-12 ft 3 rebounds 3 assists 2
steals 0 blocks 25 points.
Kobe had 8-21 fg 11-11 ft 6
rebounds 4 assists 0 steals 2
blocks 27 points. Even match
on November 8, 2002. Kobe
scored his 55 on March 28,
2003 and if Jordan would have
played one on one against Kobe
in that game it would have
been more exciting. Still 55
points! Michael Jordan was
10-20 fg 3-4 ft 0 rebounds 4
assists 1 steal 0 blocks 23
points against primarily Rick
Fox and Devan George while
Kobe dropped his double
nickels.
