The Night Kobe became the Black Mamba. There's more to the story behind that but I'll leave that for another post, I'll keep it about ball.
What separates Kobe from the rest is he's gonna shut down the other team's best player and still get his off. He didn't guard Mcgrady during the first half of this game and Mcgrady went off, he switched off and started guarding Mcgrady in the fourth and held him to about 7 points.
