I can’t say the 60 points upstaged the Warriors 73 wins, let us just focus on the 60 Magic
Who would've thought that Kobe scoring 60pts in his last game would upstage the Warriors winning their 73rd game? Well it happened tonight!

This one is nice and one of the best inspiration for Kobe, which is to be able to show his kids his game, leaving a lasting great game memory
Kobe said the coolest part of hitting 60 was that his kids were here and got a glimpse of what kind of player he used to be.

Can’t help but put Michael Jordan in the conversation
Kobe is the oldest player to score 50 Pts since MJ in 2001.
