After wild game-winning shot, Dwyane Wade thanks Kobe Bryant

MIAMI (AP) — It’s been more than nine years, and Dwyane Wade still wonders from time to time how Kobe Bryant hit a straightaway 3-pointer off the glass to beat him.

Finally, he has his answer.

Down by two, at home, last possession. That was the scenario when Bryant made his 3-pointer over Wade on Dec. 4, 2009, to give the Los Angeles Lakers a one-point win over the Miami Heat.

Down by two, at home, last possession. Same scenario for Wade, this time against the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday night.

Same result, too.
