Kobe Ends Lakers Three Game Slide
It was Kobe Bryant’s late jumper that put an end to the Lakers three game slide on Tuesday night.
With just 1.9 seconds left Bryant hit a 17-foot jumper taking the Los Angeles Lakers to a 109–107 victory over the Toronto Raptors. This ended what was the Lakers longest losing streak this season.
The Raptors totally outplayed the defending champions through most of the three-quarters up until Bryant’s heroic shot in the fourth. Chris Bosh hit a 3-pointer with 9.5 seconds left to bring the game to a tie. Then Bryant eluded Antoine Wright’s defense getting the ball on the wing and moved nearly to the baseline for the jumper.
Bryant, who scored 14 of his 32 points in the fourth quarter, saved the Lakers’ win but hopefully he won’t need to again in the run up to the finals. He showed his disappointment after the game and called the victory over the Raptors “garbage” and made it clear he wasn’t impressed that he was required to bail the Lakers out yet again. They definitely need the whole team to defend their NBA Championship title.
