"I have to rank it as my second-greatest shot ever after the one I had to beat Rip (Hamilton) in high school," Bryant said. "Shaq gave me a good down pick, and I was able to gather my balance, step back and hit it. I was gauging my dribble waiting for them to foul me, but they didn't." "That's why he's so special," Pistons coach Larry Brown said. "After what the kid's been through all year, more power to him, because he's a great, great young man." Brown said he normally doesn't like his team to foul in those situations, giving the opponent two free throws instead of letting him shoot a three.</div> All I can say is wow. That shot was amazing, how about you guys?
Kobe has done this time and time again, nothing really impressed me about that shot, but it did get me 50$ :two_thumb
I read that article this morning. Yea, that shot was amazing. Ending of regulation was amazing too I might add.
if i were a Lakers fan id be "amazed" but considering that im NOT by any means a Lakers fan and that Kobe as continually done the same exact thing over and over all season long...doesn't really impress me...Fish's shot was a hell of a lot more impressive given the amount of "time" left on the clock....Kobe's shot helped to even the series for the Lakers...it didn't litterally win the series for the Lakers...i think everyone is really forgetting that
Great clean and straight to the point article Streetball2k3 . Two thumbs up for the find. And also i would like to compliment Larry on such good comments for the opposing teams player. Considering the way the pistons lost the game due to Kobe and lack of defense and all the trauma that Kobe has went through this season. <div class="quote_poster">Quoting Mr.Fundamentals:</div><div class="quote_post">Kobe has done this time and time again, nothing really impressed me about that shot, but it did get me 50$ :two_thumb</div>Nice Mr. Fundamentals. I will agree though that was a spectacular shot of confidence from Kobe. BTW. I didnt know Kobe and Rip palyed together before the L. Thats a very interesting thread of info to know.
