Very impressive, although that was only really possible back then. No 3-in-the-key rule, a more narrow key, no shot clock, and the lack of very serious defensive competition. I'm pretty sure a lot of teams averaged over 130ppg during the 60s.

A 50-point game is so much more impressive today, although Wilt was definitely one-of-a-kind. It says something that they had to change the rules to adapt to him :)

Wow, if he had 2 more points against Portland he would be leading the list of 40+ points.

One thing that impresses me the most is that Bosh has increased his repertoire of moves. He's attacking and finishing in a large variety of ways. In the past he would only either shoot the mid range shot, or drive to the hoop. This year he has done an excellent job of mixing up his offense.
