Kobe Bryant Amazing Buzzer Beater And Game Winning Shot
Submitted by ilive4sportz
Down by two with 3.2 seconds left, Kobe Bryant left the excited Miami Heat stunned at the final mini-seconds of the game. How exactly did he do that? Well the visual of the amazing buzzer beater shot speaks volumes more than the written explanation, but we'll try to recap.
Kobe simply wanted to drive for a tying basket. His foot slipped when he got the ball, and Miami’s defense forced Bryant to throw up an off-balance 3-point shot that was well off target and far too long.
Yes, everything went wrong on the Los Angeles Lakers’ final possession, but Bryant and perhaps a quick prayer to the basketball gods made it all work out.
Bryant delivered his last shot over Dwyane Wade’s fully stretched arm at the buzzer, ending the superstars’ sensational duel and sending the Lakers to their eighth straight victory, 108-107 over the Heat on Friday night.
Bryant scored 33 points, but his falling bank shot from straightaway will most definitely rank among his career highlights.
“It was the luckiest shot I’ve ever taken, by far,” said Bryant. “It felt good, (but) I just couldn’t believe this ball might go in on this shot.”
Well it did and clinched the game win for the LA Lakers.
Watch the incredible video of Bryant's buzzer beater over the Heat.
