Everyone knew the TD Garden crowd would address Kobe, CSNNE looks at how they gave him a little big of everything. Los Angeles captured the second at Staples Center in a seventh game. The last time four Atlanta players combined for 100 points was April 11, 2008, when Horford (19), Joe Johnson (34), Josh Smith (24) and Mike Bibby (24) had 101.
“He was everything we expected”, Crowder said. What I am saying here is that with 30 seconds left in the half, Kobe dribbled into a double-team and chucked up a contested, off-balance three-pointer that hadn’t a prayer of going in.

Bryant’s long shot helped stem a Boston comeback and he then pulled down his 11th rebound on the next play as Los Angeles ended Boston’s four-game winning streak. While there is still one more game against the Celtics left in the illustrious career of Kobe, his final road game in the series with the Lakers’ most bitter rival has a special feel to it. He also collected eight fouls and missed a free throw.
“I remember having to make a decision because the Spurs were such a fundamentally sound team and we had a reputation of being more flash than substance”, Bryant said. She was mad. I showed her the video of us losing to the Celtics and me walking off the court crying.
“I was determined and said listen I have to figure a solution with this leadership thing and do whatever is necessary”, Bryant said. “I can’t go through this”‘.
