NBA's High-Scoring Duos

Kobe Bryant & Shaquille O'Neal, Lakers

Allen Iverson's trade to Denver gives the Nuggets two 30-point scorers (and the league's top two scorers at the time of the trade). It's no stretch to think that both players will finish in the top 10 in scoring this season. SI.com went back through the last 25 years to find other teammates who each finished in the top 10 in scoring in the same year (and played the whole year together). The most recent example? Kobe & Shaq in 2002-03. Kobe Bryant (30.0 points per game) ... 2nd in league Shaquille O'Neal (27.5 ppg) ... 4th in league
