| 100 for Jordan? His Airness says in today's NBA he would score 100 points in a game...also said that Kobe is a top 10 guard all-time. Do you think MJ is being over confident or is he right? |

| | smh | I'm sure an MJ in his prime, Kobe or even Durant could throw down a hundred if they really wanted to.
And yes, there is absolutely zero debate that Kobe is a top-ten all time guard. |

| If it hadnt been done before than maybe this bold statement would have more of a shock value. |

| | smh | 100 is still the unicorn of basketball.
It's been almost five years since Kobe's 81 and that is still fresh in the memories of most NBA fans. |

| I would value the averaging a triple double for the whole season over scoring 100 in a game, then again im not the average fan. |

I think in his prime he could have gotten 100, the situation would have to be perfect though.

Jason Kidd had the best shot of doing this by far of any player in recent history and he hasn't even approached it.
The 100 point game can still happen. |

If you're talking top ones AND twos, then top ten sounds right. Which is what I assume he meant. If he meant just twos, then top 5 is more appropriate. |

| Mike put up 50 at 40 years of age relying solely on jump shots. Without hand checking, and playing against much weaker defenses in todays era, I believe he could do it. |
