The desire to have some form of memorabilia from the match is understandable, with Bryant signing his career off in spectacular style with a 60-point haul in the 101-96 triumph. Game 7 of the series was closely contested, but Bryant ended up being the difference, scoring 10 of his 23 points in the fourth quarter and grabbing 15 rebounds.

Speaking of the game, Kobe said, “The coolest thing is that my kids actually saw me play like I used to play”.
However, whatever Kobe decides to take upon his during his retirement is for him to keep as Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak stated over ESPN that he is all praises for Kobe’s outstanding 60-point performance to end his National Basketball Association career on a high note but reality has it, that they have to live a life beyond Kobe.
Rice tweeted: “Kobe Bryant you’re a BEAST”.
Thanks for 20 years of greatness, Kobe. We didn’t run. We got through all that stuff and won our championships and we did it the right way. You’ll always be in my heart, and I sincerely, sincerely appreciate it. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Why did Kobe go off so dramatically? In front of a star-studded crowd, The Black Mamba put on a show that will forever live in the memory of basketball fans.

Bags filled with (supposed) air from Kobe Bryant’s last game Wednesday at the Staples Center have suddenly appeared on eBay.com for auction. He did score a point two days later against the New York Knicks, when he played for a grand total of three minutes.
