"To sit here and say I grasp what happened, that would be lying. Not even in my dreams."
Kobe had 26 points in the first half
He had 55 points in the second half
That's 28-of-46 from the floor, 7-of-13 from 3-point range and 18-of-20 from the foul line.
He outscored the Raptors team in the second half
He raised his average by 2 points in this game
Kobe Bryant scored 66 percent of his team's points in his 666th game.
He is second to only Wilt Chamberlain in points scored.
Wilt Chamberlain scored 100 in 1962, 19 + 62 = 81.
That means he surpassed such greats as Michael Jordan and Elgin Baylor.
"You're sitting and watching, and it's like a miracle unfolding in front of your eyes and you can't accept it," Lakers owner Jerry Buss said. "Somehow, the brain won't work. The easiest way to look at it is everybody remembers every 50-point game they ever saw. He had 55 in the second half."
