LOS ANGELES –
If silence makes sound, you heard it last night in the Staples Center.
It was inside this arena that 18,997 Los Angeles Lakers fans stood cheering –
euphoric because their hero had just been heroic – and watched Andre
Iguodala release his ceiling-scraping jumper. They watched as the ball arched through the air, spun downwards, then swirled
through the rim.
As it did, it felt as if a gust of wind swept through the arena, replacing
the expected – Kobe Bryant hits game-winning jumper – with the never-before
– Iguodala trumps Bryant.
Last night in downtown Los Angeles, the Sixers stunned the Lakers 94-93.
The Sixers had trailed by 14 points in the fourth quarter. They looked buried
beneath the gold-and-purple before veteran Donyell Marshall popped from the
bench – for the second straight game – and delivered three three-pointers,
helping stitch together an improbable rally.
At the end of that rally, Iguodala promised he would win the game.
And he did.
But before he could, the drama began, per usual, with Bryant. Struggling
through an 0 for 5 fourth quarter, Bryant had the ball, guarded by Iguodala,
game tied.
No matter the shooting woes: Bryant hesitated, rocked Iguodala off balance,
and rose for the jumper.
"he’s made so many of those shots … so many,” said Sixers coach Tony
DiLeo. “It doesn’t matter what he’s done before that.”
Bryant’s jumper with 6.6 seconds remaining gave the Lakers a 93-91 lead and
sent the party-prone Staples crowd dancing in the aisles.
The Sixers called a timeout.
DiLeo began diagramming a play.“We gave Andre the option, we cleared it out for him … but he said coming
out, ‘I’m going to win the game,’ so he knew what he was going to do and
he did it,” DiLeo explained.
“I said ‘I’m shooting a three’ and [DiLeo] looked at me like ‘What do
you mean?’” said Iguodala. “I said, ‘I’m shooting the three and I’m
going to win the game for us.’”
“He told us he was going to make the shot,” said point guard Andre Miller.
“So it was premeditated.”
Iguodala, guarded by Los Angeles forward Trevor Ariza, caught the sideline
inbounds pass with :6.6 left. Los Angeles coach Phil Jackson had told his
team they had a foul to give.
“I don’t know if Trevor fully understood when I said we had a foul to use
because he did not use it,” Jackson said.
Instead, Iguodala juked Aziza with the same move Bryant had put, not a minute
before, on him: a hesitation dribble.
“Yeah, it was the same move,” Iguodala confirmed. “It hasn’t been working
for me this year, but about four games ago it started clicking a little bit.
I use it once a game. I used it in the Toronto game a few times. I knew it
would be there. It throws the defender off rhythm a little bit … it worked
on me, when I was guarding Kobe, and it worked on Trevor.”
Iguodala finished with 25 points. He also chased Bryant through
pick-and-rolls and around double screens, limiting the all-world shooting
guard to 11 points.
“We wanted to flood the area so Kobe would see a lot of shirts around Andre,
” DiLeo said.
Although Bryant’s usually precise jumper was amiss last night – he finished
4 for 12 from the field – he also sat with foul trouble in the second and
third quarters.
Last night’s big-time win jump starts this five-game, seven-day Western trip
for the Sixers, who play tonight at the Phoenix Suns.
The Sixers improve to 34-31 and have won four straight. The Lakers drop to
52-14.
Last night’s win might have been the most unlikely of this road trip;
perhaps the most unlikely of the season.
But is it the best?
“Probably the best I would think,” DiLeo said. “I can’t think of a better
one … I think we’re coming back together like we did before the all-star
break.”
“This is a big turn for us,” Miller said.
Because Iguodala’s long three-pointer coincided with the buzzer, the
referees were forced to view the replay.
But even as they did, delaying the outcome of the game, a number of Lakers
fans began packing their stuff, heading for the exits.
As they left the Staples Center they said to those still waiting:
"Come on, it’s over, we know that shot was good.”
