Just So we all know, this shot against the Miami Heat was luck.
Even Kobe Said it himself that he threw it a little harder than he would have wanted to and that it was lucky.
And besides, I didn't hear him call bank.
Did you?

No. 10: It Must Be a Game of Horse
2 of 12This is the kind of shot you try in a game of horse.
Not one that you make in the middle of a game.
I'm guessing that Kobe could replicate this, but if given the chance, i'd like to ask him to do it again.

Again. Kobe is a fine specimen of athletic ability.
Find me a more athletic guy in the prime of his career.
Michael Jordan?
Maybe LeBron James.
That's called good company.
No. 8: Kobe Bats Switch
4 of 12Some people just have so much athletic ability that it is not even comparable to the general population. Then there are those with that athletic ability that work every second of every day to make their game better than everyone else 's.
That is Kobe.
A guy with out of this world athleticism, and an equally great work ethic.
I mean lefty... At the buzzer?
C'mon

Kobe, in his prime, could really get around the court.
and if you couldn't tell by watching the video, he used that to his advantage on the defensive end as well as the offensive end.
Kobe has hops too.
Just in case you didn't notice.
No. 5: There Isn't Much More Ray Allen Could Do
7 of 12Great Offense beats Great defense.
That's just how these things play out.
No. 4: Baseline Windmill On Kevin Garnett

No. 3: Kobe Stuns Suns in the First Round of the Playoffs
9 of 12Western Conference Semi-finals.
Kobe steps up and drains an incredibly difficult shot.
Pass the peanuts...
No. 2: Kobe Stuns Suns in the Playoffs Part Two
10 of 12It's a long video, but I just couldn't leave out most of the story.
The shot at the end is awesome, but the way the Lakers got to that point is almost as good. Clutch play, after clutch play from Kobe Bryant.
Easily the most clutch player in the NBA since Michael Jordan.

No. 1: These Two Deserve Their Own Slides...
11 of 12This Article Courtesy Of Rip City Report
As A Portland Trail Blazers fan, I can honestly say that this was the most irritating thing I have ever witnessed.
The Blazers at the time had the longest active playoff streak in the NBA, if they win this game they go to the playoffs, if they lose, they go home.
Kobe Bryant hits two unbelievable shots and the rest is history.
