Kobe Leads Lakers to Victory Over Thunder

Lakers’ guard Kobe Bryant helped L.A. pull away with 15 points after Oklahoma got close during the fourth quarter. With 36 points overall, Bryant led the Lakers to a 107-93 victory over Oklahoma City Thunder at Ford Center last night. The Lakers (47-10) improved 21-6 on the road, maintaining distance over Boston (46-12) and Cleveland (44-11) in the race for the league’s best record.

While some are used to “the Kobe show,” Derek Fisher, who has played with Kobe for most of his 13-year career, told the L.A. Times that Bryant still impresses him: “He doesn’t really do anything that amazes me any more but it’s just fun to observe, even as a teammate, his ability to just make his mind up — ‘OK, this is what I’m going to go do.’ I don’t know if there’s anybody in our game that can consistently match that ability. I know I’m biased, but it’s impressive to me,” Fisher said.
