44 in the first half... Franchise record.

This is one of the games I remember watching live. WhatI remember and what I loved about that game is it was the height of the Shaq/Kobe feud... They really weren't getting along and we all know Shaq's ego... But Shaq just kept feeding Kobe and not trying to get his, even though I'm sure he wanted to put on a show for MJ too...

Shaq did that because he knew MJ told Kobe, you can wear my shoes but never fill them. Kobe even at the height of their bs would have stepped back and let Shaq ate up Yao, Hakeem, whoever said some **** like that too

They still had each other's backs.

It’s so much more than that

I believe it was Kobe 40 wiz39 at one point

I think Kobe scores nearly 40 points in a row? It was an absolutely savage take over

Jordan came out hot. I think Jordan scored 10 straight in the first quarter and the. Kobe took over. It was a demolishing. One of Kobe’s best games ever no doubt.

Double-nickel tribute to MJ
