You missed out, man. Iverson made the Vageta "you can't believe I'm this much of a shrimpy bad-ass with giant anime eyes" face the whole game. He also reached Super Sayan level 2 that game, glowing cornrows, floating debris all around him... It was boss.

4/29/2005 - Iverson goes for 37 and 15 with only 3 turnovers!!! That's a hell of a game. Like a dumbass, I was probably out celebrating my birthday instead of watching playoffs. STUPID STUPID STUPID. When will I learn to never NOT watch playoffs.

Jordan also accomplished this feat once prior to the 91 playoffs:

6/2/89 vs. Pistons: 32 points, 13 assists

Yeah, I realize that UB. I just wanted to point out d how few players there really were in that list. It's 13 playoff games but only 7 players (11 and 6 if you discount Iverson, which I did since he dominated the ball at the guard position which, to me, pretty much makes you the point guard even if you have a 75% usage rate).

Kobe assisted on 28.8% of his teammates' FG last night.
In the '91 Finals, Jordan assisted 38% of his fellow Bulls' FG, over 5 games.
He also scored 31% of Chi points.

In that 14-Ast game vs NY ('93 G5), it was 48%. Plus 30% of their points.

#1: "21-point, 13-assist games aren't exactly uncommon in the playoffs, but they are rare for non-PGs. Here's every such game since 1991 for players who didn't man the point:"

2 - LeBron
2 - McGrady
