With this being Kobe Bryant’s 20th and final season with the Lakers, the organization has been running a pretty cool feature all season called “This Day in Kobe History” (#TDIKH) where they chronicle great games or key events throughout Kobe’s career. Today, December 20th, just so happens to be one of my favorite Kobe games ever:
#TDIKH: Dec 20 2005: Kobe outscores Dallas by himself through three quarters, 62-61. https://t.co/Eqx2WSqFso
— Los Angeles Lakers (@Lakers) December 20, 2015
This game is often overshadowed by Kobe’s 81 point performance against the Raptors which came a month later (January 22, 2006).
