The Jazz led that entire game by "just enough" to allow for an amazing heroic "comeback" led by Kobe Bryant who took over 50 shots.

Seriously, I always lol at people who think it's scripted but that game looked phony as hell

No...the refs did not call a few fouls at the end...who cares? That was amazing.

Bro the shots still had to go in. All the foul calls were going to go their way at the end, but that is about it.

Did you not expect Kobe to shoot 50 this game?

Yes just like the Warriors "winning"73. NBA needed more ratings.

When I tell my wife in the morning how the game went, her response will basically be the OP verbatim. Did the same thing after Jeter's final AB walk-off

He still has to hit the jumpers. They did ignore his push off to get the FTs for 59 and 60 but that's a star call anyway.

Dont know about this game...its not playoff so might be arbitrary.

How long you been watching the NBA?

Never scripted but with officiating, the motto since 1998..."tune in last 5 minutes" says Stern. Always made to keep it close.

Yeah dude it's fricking easy to come off the leg injuries he's had at 37, play 42 minutes, and nut up with every big shot he took at the end. I feel bad for those of you who aren't so jacked you can't even get to sleep right now. That's one of the most incredible moments I've seen in sports.

It's not like he was wide open

He probably took more contested shots than Steph

They stopped calling fouls in the last several minutes, but Kobe still had to make the shots.
