The Los Angeles Lakers needed two last-gasp shots from Kobe Bryant to beat the Phoenix Suns. And two uncharacteristic mistakes from Phoenix star Steve Nash. Bryant made a looping runner with seven-tenths of a second left in the fourth quarter to force overtime, and a 17-footer as time expired to lift the Lakers to an improbable 99-98 victory over the Suns and a 3-1 lead in the first-round Western Conference playoff series.
