Kobe Bryant went out the way Kobe Bryant was supposed to go out.
After the Los Angeles Lakers were trailing last night in the fourth quarter against the Utah Jazz, Bryant took over and absolutely willed his team to victory.
The five-time NBA champion ended the night with 60 points on a ridiculous 50 shot attempts and both LeBron James and Kyrie Irving took notice via Twitter.
UNBELIEVABLE MAN!!! #MambaDay
