Can you stop Kobe? A little challenge for you

[JaoSming]

According to EAMarcus the rewind game for Kobe's 61 point explosion is ready for Live 09.

My challenge to you guys is if you can rewrite history and contain Kobe as the Knicks using that game's DNA.

My guidelines for this challenge are:
you use that games rewind DNA,
5 minute quarters,
and Superstar difficulty.

I'm hoping to get my attempt in during lunch or sometime tonight. Let me know how well you guys do against him.

Cool idea. I've posted a notice on the main page and I'll have to give it a shot myself.

This challenge finally got me to stop lurking and register (been lurking for years), anyway here's my attempt...






Forgot to take a pic of the final score, but I won 49 - 43. Not to shabby, held him to 8 points, 2 assists and 2 boards. I did get a lot of practice defending Kobe cheesers online, which helped a lot.

All in all a cool little challenge, might try it again to see if I can do better.

well thanks for participating, I ended up running errands all last night and just passed out when I got back


maybe once Lebron's Rewind game gets up we should try stopping him with the Knicks as well.

lost 60 - 45

Kobe got 29 points

really fun game though, stuck with them till the end of the 4th when Kobe got 10 of his points in 3 minutes...

Lost 68-59. Kobe had 19 points on 9/11 shooting, gave up a couple of easy ones and he hit a couple of tough ones to beat the shot clock to pad it out a bit. If my maths is correct, he would've been on pace to score at least 45 if I were playing 12 minute quarters. I probably could've won and I had tied the game in the fourth but a couple of defensive errors gave them a lead they wouldn't relinquish.

Made an attempt at this, and well, I got my Clutch and David vs Goliath achievements.

Held LBJ to 8 points but he had 4 steals and 3 blocks on me with 5 assists to Z.

Final was 54-41 for my win

I was in the process of attempting the Cavs/Knicks Rewind game before Warriors/Suns started on ESPN but my 360 crashed on me. Fortunately not RROD, I just can't get the place cool this summer even with the A/C going. It's been a hot one here in Newcastle.
