To all the Bam haters, give him his flowers. I understand why someone that roots for another team or an NBA fan would be upset the way he got to 83 but you need to make those FT’s to get there. If you remember, there was a time that Shaq was fouled intentionally because he was a horrible FT shooter. Stop hating

The way they talking you wouldn’t have known he had 31 in the first and 70 at the end of the 3rd

Bam getting 83 is so bad for the NBA. He’s not even a top 15 player in the league he’s not a scorer, he’s a defensive player

Against a garbage team in a modern day era where the game is softer and allows for more points. No, it’s just a really good performance, not all-time.

You can’t take this from Bam, but I’m not impressed on how he got it. He got some bragging right. 46% is wild though. Chucking up bad shots is crazy and embarrassing. Fouling to extend the game is nasty work. Not good basketball.

Bam took 40 FREETHROWS. okay lol Stop FOULING. Wizards are just trash and took advantage of their defense

Kobe did not need 81 pts btw. Could’ve left the game at 70

Bam was balling and look 43 fts right let’s say he wasn’t fouled and just 26 points counted …he would’ve still potentially broke it

Didn’t jalen rose went to interview and said that Sam Mitchell didn’t want to double kobe. That’s why he scored so many points?

Um they were up by double digits. He never really passed kobe. Kobe could of scored 100 or so when he scored 62 points in 3 quarters but he never played the entire 4th quarter because Lakers were up by 20 something points vs the Mavericks. Go watch the difference is kobe could of passed 85 points but chose not to. When Kobe scored 82 points Lakers were trailing by 20 in the 3rd quarter bam was leading in the 3rd by 20 or so. So it’s actually that his team and coach made him play with every possession going to him plus he missed 23 shots Kobe only missed 18 or something.
