And yes, I think Kobe is a piece of shit...great basketball player, piece of shit.
I remain unimpressed in his 60 point performance on 50 shots in a game that didn't matter. Utah played "OK" defense those last 5 shots, but they knew it was over for them and some guys caved to the "it's Kobe" mentality during other parts of the game.
This is efficiency in a game that mattered.

So, you're comparing Nowitzki's most efficient game in 2011 against Kobe's final farewell game at the age of 37? Not saying Nowitzki's game wasn't impressive (it was), but that's apples and oranges. If you want to cherry-pick games, how about I raise you a game that Kobe and Nowitzki BOTH played in.
