You want to flame a guy who scored 81 and single handedly brought a team back that was down double digits in the 3rd quarter?
Basketball is a win game.
When Jordan scored 69 he was a hero. When Kobe scores 81 he's a goat.
You wouldn't sit a superstar player who was on fire down the stretch. If you did, you wouldn't be a coach very long.

I'd point out that when Jordan scored 69, they actually lost to the Celtics. He wasn't a hero.
