Ranking Kobe Bryant's 10 Greatest Game-Winners

#6 vs the Indiana Pacers, NBA Finals game 4, 14th June 2000

(skip to 5:04 in the video below for the shot in question)

Play the first Finals series of his career, Kobe relished the chance to be the closer for the rampaging Los Angeles Lakers. Unfortunately, he was unable to contribute much in games 2 and 3, going down with an ankle sprain.

Making the comeback in game 4 but still in far from perfect shape for Finals basketball, Kobe proceeded to drop 28 points on Reggie Miller and co. He took over the game in its entirety when Shaquille O'Neal fouled out in overtime.

He sealed the game with a high-energy play which belongs more to the first quarter of games rather than the last 10 seconds of an NBA Finals match. Due to the fact that Kobe beats 3 Pacers players in rebounding distance to lay it in, plus the fact that this is a Finals game, we place this shot at #6.
