Throwback Thursday: Kobe Bryant’s “Amnesty THAT” Game
Matthew Emmons-USA TODAY SportsFour years ago, nearly to the day Kobe Bryant put on one the best revenge performances in NBA history and it had nothing to do with one of his many rivals on the court.
Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban suggested that the Los Angeles Lakers consider using the amnesty provision on Kobe Bryant which is a bad idea considering the Mavericks and Lakers were set to meet just two days later.
Kobe would respond by hitting 13 of his 21 shots, finishing with 38 points, 12 rebounds, and seven assists in a 103-99 Lakers victory.
