With four 40-point games already this season after getting just four all last year, Kobe trails only Wilt Chamberlain (271) and Michael Jordan (173) in 40-point games in NBA history. "It's a true honor," Bryant said. "A lot of work went into it, and when I look back on that, I [can't believe] I had 100 of those games. It's just a good feeling."

Our View: Kobe is averaging over 30 PPG game this season and has now hit the 40-plateau four times. It was nice to see him go off again, as he averaged just 18.5 points in his two previous contests. He rolled tonight, so another 40-point effort next time around is not out of the question. http://www.fantasysp.com/player/nba/Kobe_Bryant/646516 646516 Wed, 18 Nov 2009 1:07:02 EDT fanball.com http://www.fantasysp.com/player/nba/Kobe_Bryant/646516 Bryant, who left Sunday's game with a groin injury, took part in Monday's practice, the Los Angeles Bryant, who left Sunday's game with a groin injury, took part in Monday's practice, the Los Angeles Times reports.
