NBA
Regular Season Round 73: LA Lakers - N.Orleans H. 101-97
Date: January 7, 2011
Kobe Bryant studied grainy videotapes of Oscar Robertson while growing up, collecting scraps of the Big O's game to incorporate into his own. That's why Bryant briefly was at a loss for words after passing Robertson on the NBA's career scoring list during another win for the suddenly surging Lakers. Bryant had 25 points while moving into ninth place on the list, and Pau Gasol had 21 points and 13 rebounds in Los Angeles' third straight victory, 101-97 over the New Orleans Hornets on Friday night. After entering the NBA's career top 10 by passing Dominique Wilkins on Tuesday night, Bryant passed Robertson with his 26,712th career point on a floating jumper in the lane with 1:09 left in the third quarter. ``This is cool. It's a great honor,' Bryant said. ``Obviously, Oscar, I patterned so much of my game from his, Jerry (West) and Michael (Jordan) in particular - you know, those big guards, so it means a lot.' Bryant said he admired Robertson's physical prowess against smaller guards, taking them down low and hitting baseline jumpers over them. It's a strategy Bryant has copied throughout his career. After getting a warm standing ovation from the Staples Center crowd for his milestone, Bryant finished with two key baskets in the final 2 minutes while the Lakers beat New Orleans at home for the fourth straight time. ``Oscar was a big personality, one of the great players of the game, arguably one of the top guards to ever play the game,' Lakers coach Phil Jackson said. ``Kobe obviously fits in that category now, and he's persistently gone on through his career and had the longevity to do this. He really recognizes this as a great mile mark.' Lamar Odom had 17 points and 13 rebounds for the two-time defending champions, and Andrew Bynum added 17 points in the Lakers' fifth win in six games since he returned to the starting lineup. *Courtesy of www.comcast.net
