VIDEO: Kobe airballs potential game-tying 3
Kobe Bryant's first game since announcing that this season would be his last didn't exactly go as planned, with the future Hall of Famer scoring 13 points on 4-of-20 shooting in the Lakers' sixth straight loss.
After knocking down a triple on the previous possession to keep the Lakers in the game against the Indiana Pacers, and recording a couple of key late-game assists, Bryant still had a chance to add to The Mama lore. Unfortunately, his potential game-tying three was wide right:

It wasn't Bryant's first airball of the night, either.
When you're shooting 19 percent from deep on the season, even a legend with Bryant's pedigree can't help but find humor in the rare makes.
