Don't Make Me Use The Bat
One of the most bizarre box scores you're ever likely to read:
http://www.nba.com/games/20050114/PORNOH/boxscore.html
Damon Stoudamire suddenly channels his Mighty Mouse days and drops 54 on the Hornets....and loses!
-- The Hornets leading scorer? The immortal Dan Dickau pouring in 25.
-- Dickau recieved support from the equally immortal Lee Nailon with 22 and the not so immortal Baron Davis who got his own 22 on 3-16 shooting, including 3-11 from the 3pt line (!) but 13-14 from the FT stripe.
-- On Portland's side exactly two guys were even involved in the game. Stoudamire and Van Exel combined to take 51 FGS, everyone else together took 28. And they also took 28 of the teams 32 3pt attempts! + hit 15 of the 28.
-- Stoudamire turns in one of the all-time great one-dimensional performances: 54pts 0rebs 1ast 1stl 0blk 0TO. See ball, catch ball, shoot ball.
P.S. Damon's 54 set the new franchise record. The old record? 51pts by Geoff Petrie who did it TWICE in one season back in '72-'73.
