I wondered on some possessions. Like they knew the game was meaningless and just wanted to get onto their vacations injury free.
Yes. Once Houston had sealed their playoff spot, this game was a marketing gag so people can write about >muh heroic Kobr retirement
a better question is does anyone care?

No
The refs did. Utah was trying they're just a shitty team.
they literally double teamed him and called a timeout with 4 seconds left lmao, then proceeded to hit a 3 near the buzzer
if they were trying to give him a hollywood ending they wouldn't have done that

warriors get away with this every game
The fact that it happened in a meaningless game is WAYY better than it ocurring in the playoffs.

I don't think so, they double teamed him a lot and forced Kobe to shoot contested 3-pointers.

jack nicholson looking good.
Utah quit playing hard after leading by double digits most of the game. They were letting Kobe have his moment. They had nothing to really play for anymore after the Rockets won.
did toronto let kobe get 81?
When Kobr takes 50 shots you're going to win 9 out of 10. Just playing the percentages.
that's what I thought the moment I heard about it. but he shot 44%, so even if everyone in the game was trying to set it up for him, he did something.
it must have been one of those nights where everyone involved kinda subconsciously understood the storyline unfolding and even if they didn't mean to, they sort of let it happen

>kobe could have got 60 every night but he chose not to
what a slacker
he could have been the GOAT
NBA is rigged as fuck the lakers "win" against The Golden State Warriors is proof of that.
