Needed to be on the chart. I would've included Kobe's two shots against Portland, either the 3-pointer while wearing Patterson or the fall-away 3-pointer over Ratliff to win the pacific division title in '04. And the the 81 points? I definitely remember the scissor-kick 3-pointer to get elevation out of his dead legs rather than a free throw. Hell, the lefty spinning corner 3-pointer wearing Terry on his right hand was more impressive, and memorable, than that free throw. Thanks for the link, send them the above suggestion.
