Excluding<blockquote>Kobe's 81Kobe's 62 in 3Double OT Classic on the last game of 04</blockquote>Mine would be a tossup between the 27 point halftime comeback against Dallas in 2002 and the 4th quarter comeback against the Magic in 2004. In both games, Kobe completely just carried the team back, in the 27 point comeback I think he had something like 21 in the 4th quarter and in the Magic game he completely shut down T Mac (who had been killing the Lakers all game) in the 4th and took over offensively as well. He scored the game winner in the Dallas game and the game tyer to put the game into overtime against Orlando.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UNB8qZEiVy0http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7noDbbdap24What are yours?
well im going about this as games that i have watched and not in all of lakers history and im definetly going with that game at staples center versus the mavericks,i watched that whole game and i even remember mark cuban talking before the game about how much he hated the lakers because they had never won at home vs. the lakers since like 1991 or so and hes like "we will win tonight" then dallas got on that huge lead like at least 32 point lead and this game was nationally televised and the lakers were having a not so good season so far,but in this game with the help of brian shaw and kobe bryant the lakers took back a lead to win the game in the 4th quarter UNBELIEVABLE game,i was actually sick that day with the flu and it was like i wasnt sick anymore after they won lol im being serious,i even recorded that game on tape and i remember bill walton saying that it was like the 2nd best comeback in nba history :rock:

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (jhowardfan @ Jul 4 2006, 01:17 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>whos brian shaw??</div>He was a solid role player for the Lakers in their threepeat who knew his role and hit some big shots for the team. Befor LA I think he was with Boston and Portland, he's now a coach for the Lakers.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (jhowardfan @ Jul 4 2006, 01:17 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>whos brian shaw??</div>he was a veteran who won a championship with the lakers,he played with shaq in orlando and played with the heat,and celtics all in the 90s,he later joined the lakers and was part of the 3-peat,but as of right now he part of the lakers coaching staff and is the lakers summer league head coach along with kurt rhambis,anway on that particular night he had a big game with three 3 pointers in the second half that gave the lakers a boost along with kobe's heroics and shaq downlow

81 is the greatest regular season game i have ever witnessed, it's one of those games you can proudly say you watched live. I didn't catch lakers-blazers live so i cannot really comment on the excitement.

And then Kobe just came and dominated... it was fricking crazy.I'll never forget January 22nd, 2006.
No love for Shaq's 61? Or when they beat the Mavs this year on Kobe's 35 foot fadeaway game winner? Or Kobe's 42 point half in MJ's last game against the Lakers? Or Kobe's 56 in 3?

Shaq throws an alley to kobe then on a nother play Shaq run the floor then tosses an alleyoop to kobe who reverses it in.

If I hadn't everyone would just pick it.
