NEW YORK – As Kobe Bryant turned the corner and made a hard move for the rim, he committed those old legs to a most improbable assignment: rising over the rubble of this Los Angeles Lakers season and transcending himself. Whatever else had lapsed in his basketball life – the years, the knees, the busted-up shoulder and failing foot of the Lakers' crumbling 7-footers – Bryant had come to elevate over everything, elevate over everyone on Tuesday night.
These were old times in a different New York basketball address, a christening in the borough of Brooklyn inside the freshest basketball arena in the NBA. Game on the line, the Lakers in a precarious place, and suddenly the congestion and clutter of the season gave way to space, a line to the rim and a chance for Bryant to leap out of a long-ago time and deliver a dunk – a moment – to remember him in the Barclays Center.
