Kobe's Last Game

(Again I know this is late, please forgive me.) Now I may not be a die hard Lakers fan like some of my friends, but I do want to acknowledge something. On April 13 (the day the Warriors made history might I add) Kobe Bryant played his final game at home (the Staples Center), against the Utah Jazz. Now I'm going to be completely honest, I was not expecting them to win this game, as the rest of their season wasn't very promising. But to my surprise, the Lakers emerged victorious, with a final score of 101-96. Kobe himself scored 60 of those points, which is a lot for one player. I myself did not watch the full game (I only caught parts of it as I was watching the Warriors game) but from what I saw, they gave Kobe the ball 90% of the time, which made me laugh. By the end of the night you could tell he was exhausted. But, even as a Warriors fan, I must pay my respects to Kobe. Farewell black mamba, you had a great run.
