Looks like James might press for MJ's record. Also, I'm a basketball noob, but why the 1986-87 season as the base year?

The 1986-87 season is as far back as you can search individual game box scores on basketball-reference.com. So, MJ probably doesn't actually have the record of 50 point games, since Wilt Chamberlain averaged 50.4 points per game in 1962... but we work with what we can I guess.

Might be a little picky here... but I think you're leaving out Danny Granger. Didn't he have 51 or 52 pts or something?

Looks like nba.com has Granger's high listed at 42: http://www.nba.com/playerfile/danny_granger/career_stats.html
