Maybe I should have added this to the "Today in Sports" post.
EDIT: Here's an HD video of Kobe's amazing shot. This is top 5 material of all-time Laker moments in my lifetime.
Don't forget Fisher's 3-ball to bring the Lakers within 1. And also Wade's missed free-throw thereafter.
Epic.
Win. 15-3.
Kobe admitted that it was luck, but in that moment, anyone would take luck over a loss.

Are you kidding me? Top 5? It was good, but super lucky. Fish probably has five better moments on his own. And saying top five kinda diminishes all the other amazing Lakers moments in the past. Maybe top 25....maybe.
