Video: Kobe playin' H-O-R-S-E, hits over-the-backboard shot

By J.E. Skeets

In the span of just two minutes, Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant(notes): (a) hit a shot from behind the backboard after being forced baseline by Thunder rookie James Harden(notes), (b) nailed a pretty up-and-under reverse layup, and (c) banked home a difficult runner — with his left hand — to beat the first quarter buzzer.

He will accept the My Little Pony/H-O-R-S-E trophy from inaugural winner Kevin Durant(notes), postgame.

    i wonder if kobe actually tries to make a shot even though it is deemed like an "impossibility" or "no skill required just luck"

    Kobe needs to win 3 more titles before he can even be "better than MJ"....and even then, let's take away those first three because SHAQ was the most dominant player. Not to mention the ref scandal, take that one away too lol. Last time I checked, 6 4. Even then, with SEVEN TITLES, you won't be the best. Kobe probably has about 2-3 more years in him. You all forget, HE'S BEEN PLAYING SINCE HE WAS OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL. Then again, MJ came back oldest player and was still better than 85 percent of those in the league. I remember watching the ALL-STAR game, he hit the game winner if that IDIOT didn't get a call on...the angry ant.
