I laughed so hard i nearly choked.
Kobe looked so mad heading to the locker room. Sure Dwight wasnt playing, but it didnt look like he was really taking the game seriously on the bench. They got problems.
The game really came down to the last few minutes. Specifically during a 2 on 1 fastbreak that MWP took upon himself. He bricked a layup that should have been a bounce pass to Kobe to either tie or cut the lead to one (can't remember at the moment).
By some fortune, they get the offensive rebound, the ball is kicked to Kobe who is trapped in the corner and passes it to MWP who, again, decides to take matters into his own hands and drives into a crowded lane and gets rejected and embarrassed by Duncan as San Antonio gains possession.
Next Lakers possession, the ball is mishandled and pops into MWP's hands on the wing. Instead of realizing how he's single-handedly killed 99% of the Lakers' momentum and passing it up, he decides to aim for the 1% of the momentum they still had and kill it with a forced fadeaway 3 from the corner which is promptly bricked and recovered by the Spurs.
There was the game right there, ladies and gents.
