Question: Where Was the Rest of the Team?

Last night Kobe Bryant scored a amazing 81 points in the Lakers win against the Toronto Raptors, 122-104. I don't usually follow basketball, but something like this caught my attention (I do usually watch the NBA Finals though and will usually root for either the Nuggets if they ever get there or a California team). Final tally: Kobe - 81points, Rest of the team - 41 points. He played about 42 minutes total (out of 60 for you fellow non followers of basketball), and also this was the second highest point total for one person, Wilt Chamberlin only scored more points, 100 on March 2nd, 1962. Quite a feat in my humble non basketball following opinion...
