Kobe Scores 50 for 4th Straight Game
Los Angeles Lakers guard Kobe Bryant scored 50 points for the fourth consecutive game on Friday night against the New Orleans Hornets. Bryant is only the second player in NBA history to accomplish the task. The other player to do it being the immortal Wilt ‘The Stilt’ Chamberlain. Wilt holds the record with seven straight 50 pointers.
On a side note the Lakers won the game 111-105 over the Hornets. It was the first time this year that L.A. has beaten N.O. The Lakers have won all four games during Bryant’s streak and now have a record of 37-32.

- March 23, 2007, New Orleans Hornets (31-38), 50 points
- March 22, 2007, Memphis Grizzlies (17-52), 60 points
- March 18, 2007, Minnesota Timberwolves (29-38), 50 points
- March 16, 2007, Portland Trailblazers (29-40), 65 points
The combined record of these four teams is 106-168 (0.387%) but who is looking at that. Kobe will have a chance to make it five in a row on Sunday night against the Golden State Warriors.
