Dear Percy Allen, thanks for marking this fleeting Kobe Bryant moment.

SEATTLE - Stop the presses, Percy Allen has something to tell all of us: "Lakers' Bryant simply the best scorer — ever"

Gosh, thanks for that Percy, thank you for marking this fleeting moment. Do you know who lead the league in scoring in 1979, or who was thought of as the "best scorer - ever" in 1979? It doesn't matter much now, just as your proclamation will not matter in another 25, or even 5 years.

Bryant is a great indivifual player, maybe the greatest scorer to this point in NBA history, but he also may be the most prolific loser ever, pumping in 50 and 60 points a game, and still sitting home in June to watch winners win.
