Kobe Bryant was one of the greatest players to have played in the league. His sheer competitive spirit and the crazy passion for being the best version of himself at any given time was what set him apart from his opponents. Bean dedicated uncountable hours starting his day at 4 in the morning, took hundreds of shots in the gym to perfect his craft, helping him reach the pinnacle of the game. Because of this, Bryant is one of the most accomplished players of all time.
For over two long decades, the Black Mamba kept preaching his famous Mamba Mentality, while instilling the same mentality in all of his fans from around the world. For anyone who followed Kobe’s career would instantly get inspired by the various little things he would do, in order to be the best.
Ever since Bryant stepped onto the hardwood as a young 18-year-old kid, he immediately showed everyone what an incredible offensive threat he was. Considered to be one of the most prolific scorers of all time, Kobe, on several occasions did the unthinkable. Like the time he put up 81 points on a Toronto Raptors team. Or the time when he outscored an entire Dallas team in three whole quarters. Or the final time he ever set on an NBA court, dropping a 60-piece on Utah Jazz.
NBA Twitter reacts to a wild Kobe Bryant stat, proving his insane offensive dominance.
The list of Kobe Bryant offensive achievements is never-ending. The Hall-Of-Famer played for 20 long seasons and ended up scoring 33,643 points in the league. A recent stat shows that Kobe Bryant had more 40-point games (122) than LeBron James and Stephen Curry combined(115), more 50-point performances (25) than LBJ, Kevin Durant and Larry Bird combined (22), and more 60-point (6) outings than Michael Jordan and King James combined (5).

As soon as this unreal Kobe stat went viral, NBA Twitter went crazy. While a few fans complimented the legend, there was a group of people who discredited Bryant for the same because he “didn’t pass the ball to his teammates”.
Greatest scorer the league has ever seen. Don’t tell me it’s KD either.

That’s cause he didn’t know how to pass the ball, he was a scorer that’s it, a very one dimensional player….
