Kobe surpasses Jordan on the all time scoring list

/

With 5:24 left in the 2nd quarter of the game against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday night Kobe Bryant made history by making a pair of free throws to give him 32,293 career points, moving him past Michael Jordan to 3rd on the all-time scoring list.  He still trails Karl Malone in 2nd by over 4000 points but passing him may still be obtainable in Bryant's impressive career. 

The NBA released a video of many of Kobe's scoring milestones which is worth checking out even if you aren't a Kobe die hard. 

Nick Johnson jumps over Ramon Sessions for the putback slam

/

Nick Johnson may be a second round rookie for the Houston Rockets but with Dwight Howard out he's been given a larger role on the team and is using his time to his advantage. This time he soars in for the putback slam, jumping over Ramon Sessions of the Sacramento Kings in the process. 

Blake Griffin is a wizard

/

Down by 2 points in overtime with under 3 seconds to go Blake Griffin catches the ball off the inbounds and decides to shoot a 3 pointer. The shot hits the rim and bounces up but Griffin uses the wizard skills he gained while at Hogwarts that one year to get the ball to fall. I feel so bad for the Phoenix Suns for what happened but the league needs to start clamping down on wizardry maybe Griffin should be fined somehow for game tampering idk. 

Kobe Bryant hits 32,000 in win over Hawks

/

Kobe Bean Bryant passed another scoring milestone tonight as he becomes the 4th player in NBA history to score over 32,000 points. Kobe's last basket in a rare Lakers win over the Hawks 113-109 put him over the 32k mark. Bryant now sits less than 300 points behind number 3 on the NBA's all time scoring list Michael Jordan. The Lakers will not be making the playoffs and overall don't have much to look forward to this season but if Kobe continues to take every shot he wishes the Lakers season maybe won't be seen entirely as a loss, especially since Julius Randle's injury opening night. Jeremy Lin did play well in the win over the Hawks scoring 15pts and 10ast but it's his and the teams inconsistency that leaves the Lakers in disarray. Bryant currently leads the league in scoring with 27.3 ppg, the lone bright spot of the Lakers bleak season.
