2000 Western Conference Finals Game 3, May 26, 2000 | Following an embarrassing letdown in game 2 where they lost by 29 points to the Blazers on their home court, the Lakers came into Portland knowing they desperately needed to win at least one of the two games. Kobe came out on fire with 14 points on 6-7 shooting in the opening quarter. Shaq, on the other hand, was extremely quiet, ending the first quarter with just a single point at the free throw line. As the game went on, Kobe cooled off a bit as Shaq took it upon himself to score the ball. The teams went back and forth in a close 4th quarter until Ron Harper made the go-ahead baseline jumper to put the Lakers up 2. On the other end, Kobe blocked Arvydas Sabonis' game tying shot attempt to win the Lakers the game and go up 2-1 in the series.
