Kobe Bryant scored 65, 50, 60 (3 Games) Highlight NBA Since emerging as a household name early in his NBA career, Kobe Bryant has often been compared to one of the most celebrated athletes in American history, Michael Jordan. Bryant, a three-time NBA champion and nine-time All-Star, knows very well that to be 'Like Mike,' you must perform 'Like Mike.' The 10-year veteran erupted for 60 points Thursday to become the first player since Jordan in 1987 and just the fourth ever (Wilt Chamberlain, Elgin Baylor) to rack up 50-plus points in three straight games. His extraordinary performance not only put his name in the "legends only" book, but also propelled the Lakers to their third straight win with a 121-119 triumph over the Grizzlies. Kobe, who also tied Jordan with his fourth 60-plus performance of his career, shot 20-of-37 from the floor. Pau Gasol registered 35 points and 15 rebounds for Memphis, while Mike Miller scored 33. If Kobe can tally 50 or more in Friday's outing against the Hornets, he would become the first player since Chamberlain in 1962 to record 50-plus in four consecutive games.
