Sure enough, in the 2005-06 season, in the Western Conference filled with strong opponents, the Lakers grabbed a playoff spot, and Kobe Bryant became the league's scoring leader for the first time with an average of 35.4 points per game. "Mr. 81 Points" Among the various awards Kobe has won, he only lacks the title of scoring champion. Finally, in his 10th season in the league, Kobe won the scoring title, fully demonstrating his scoring ability to the entire league. This season, Kobe averaged 35.4 points per game, the highest in his career. In the previous nine seasons, Kobe only averaged 30 points per game in the 2002-03 season, and the remaining eight seasons were all below 30 points. Kobe's season scoring average of 35.4 points is the eighth-highest in NBA history. Since Jordan averaged 37.1 points per game in the 1986-87 season, 35.4 points are the highest in the NBA in 19 years.

Kobe's 2,832 points in the regular season rank seventh in NBA history. On December 21, the Lakers faced the Mavericks at home, and Kobe scored 62 points in just three quarters; on January 23, Kobe shocked the league at the Staples Center when he scored 81 points from the Raptors. . 81 points is the second-highest score in a single game by an individual in NBA history, second only to Chamberlain's 100 points. After Kobe Bryant scored 81 points, he got a new nickname "Mr. 81 Points." Al Harrington said, "Kobe can score 100 points in a game." Bonzy Wells (Wells News, Wells Says) even believes that Kobe can average 40 points per game. In 80 regular season games, Kobe scored more than 30 points 56 times, 27 times more than 40 points, and more than 50 points 6 times. From December 29th to January 10th, Kobe scored 45 points, 48 ??points, 50 points, and 45 points in 4 consecutive games, becoming the first player in the NBA in 41 years to score 45 points or more in 4 consecutive games. .

At the end of the regular season, Kobe defeated the four-time scoring champion Iverson by 2.4 points (Iverson News, Iverson Talk), and the Lakers also advanced to the playoffs as seventh in the Western Conference. In the first round of the playoffs, the Lakers faced the second-ranked Suns in the Western Conference. Kobe's scoring momentum was obviously not as good as in the regular season. Except for scoring 50 points in the 6th game, he did not score more than 30 points in the other 6 games. The Lakers' overall strength was also at a disadvantage. With a 3-1 lead, the Lakers were eventually overturned by the Suns, becoming the eighth team in NBA playoff history to be reversed with a 3-1 lead. In 7 playoff games, Kobe's scoring average dropped to 27.9 points per game. Just as he was eliminated by the Suns in the first round of the playoffs, Kobe also lost to Nash, the leader of the Suns, in the regular season MVP selection (Nash News, Nash Talk). In the regular season MVP selection, Kobe only ranked fourth. The Lakers' experience of being eliminated from the playoffs shows that Kobe alone cannot make the Lakers go further in the playoffs. Although Kobe has the ability to score high points, there is no guarantee that he will be as heroic as when he scored 81 points in every game. Once his shooting percentage drops, the Lakers will be in danger. The most obvious one is the Christmas game between the Lakers and the Heat (Heat news, let’s talk about the Heat). Kobe scored 37 points and 6 assists. He took 30 shots but only made 12 hits. The Lakers finally lost to Duo Point 92-97. Flowering heat. As a defender, while Kobe scored high points, his assist ability failed to reach a new level. This is why many people accused Kobe of playing too "lonely". This season, Kobe averaged only 4.5 assists per game. In the game where he scored 62 points, Kobe had no assists at all. As a defender, this is not what you should be doing. The spiritual leader of "Dream Seven" Kobe's super scoring ability makes him the absolute main force of "Dream Seven". Unfortunately, Kobe's right knee recently underwent surgery and will not be able to compete in the World Championships in Japan. Although Kobe cannot play in the game, he is likely to go to Japan with the "Dream Seven" and act as a pure "spiritual leader." 81 points in a single game, this unimaginable achievement was actually achieved by Kobe, so it should be allowed to be a little proud of it. On January 25th, Beijing time, Kobe Bryant participated in his first team training after completing his first 81 points in a single game on Wednesday, and a new nickname was born. "Just call me Mr. 81 points." He said jokingly to his teammates. Kobe is still immersed in the surprise of 81 points so far, and he also admitted that he does not expect to repeat such a performance in the near future. "This is something that is simply unimaginable to me." He said: "It's really hard for me to calm down, but the way I played in the last game doesn't mean we're going to play like that in the next games. We've had some games at the beginning of the season where it wasn't all about me. Of course we have won some scoring games, and I hope to be able to play the tactics we used back then." Coach Phil Jackson answered very simply in an interview, "A team must have a certain balance." Lai "Zen Master" has the same idea as Kobe, but he said that if Kobe can still play such an amazing performance and dominance like in the game against the Raptors, then he also thinks it is not a bad idea. It is worth mentioning that, Kobe took as many as 46 shots in the last game, but his shooting percentage was over 50%, which made people undisputed about his results.

"If you watched that game, I think everyone knows how we won," Jackson said. On the road trip, the first team player is the current league leader Pistons. It seems that this will be another challenge for Kobe. Interestingly, Kobe revealed during training that the staff of the NBA Hall of Fame had contacted him and asked him for the sneakers he wore in the previous game against the Raptors for collection. When asked if he would hand over the sneakers , Kobe seemed a little stunned, but still replied: "Hall of Fame? Are you kidding me? They are too obsessed with these shoes.
