2003 Western Conference Semifinals Game 5, May 13, 2003 | The game that ultimately ended the Lakers long reign at the apex of the league. What could have been a 3-2 lead heading back home to Staples after an epic comeback on the road quickly became a situation where the Lakers faced the brink of elimination after a game winning three point attempt by Robert Horry rattled in-and-out as the final seconds ticked away. Although the Lakers fell behind big early, going down by as many as 25 points, their best player wouldn't let the team go down without a fight. Kobe aimed to do everything he could on the court, scoring 36 points, pulling down 7 rebounds, and dishing out 6 assists while playing all 48 minutes. Had that three by Robert Horry gone in, I can only assume the Lakers would close the series out at home in game 6 and gone on to face the Dallas Mavericks in the conference finals. We'll never know what would have happened, but that shot may have been what separated the Lakers from an unfathomable 4th title in as many years.
