to come back from 10pts down to take the game to OT against the Knicks. Not too bad, huh? 4 guys, Akins, Butler, Odom, Kobe, each took turns to knock down a 3 ptr. Stupid Knicks thought they had the game in the bag.
they still manage to win it but damn, that was crazy. What's crazier is that the Knicks have won two straight since the trade. Addition by subtraction?
Of course this is not as nearly as astonishing as TMac's. The Knicks fumbled, missing two free throws and more importantly chose not to foul Kobe when the Lakers needed 3pts to tie in the final seconds, just like the Rox game against the Kings. The difference is the Knicks hung on to win while the Rox lost the game.
with "clutch" kobe turning the ball over and fumbling a pass and not being able to get up a shot in the last 2 laker possessions. (to kobe's credit he did hit the final 3 to send the game to OT)
Actually Kobe did gave Walton a pretty good look right infront of the basket, and Walton pass up the shot. Kobe seems really pissed at Walton for not taking the shot after the buzzer went off.
