“And that’s four.”

Final score: Lakers 99 - 86 Magic
Series: Lakers win best of seven: 4-1

Game 5: Kobe led all with 30 points (including a really pretty double-clutched fadeaway shot in the 3rd quarter) and 4 blocks.

End of Magic Act
The LA Lakers defeat the Orlando Magic in 5 games to claim their 15th NBA title. It is also Head Coach Phil Jackson’s 10th NBA title (an NBA record) and Kobe Bryant’s 4th.

Kobe also received the Bill Russell Trophy after being named 2009 Finals MVP.
(edit: if you ask me, Kobe’s performance this year is the definition of ’stepping up.’ his stats? 32.4 points per game for this final series. WTF inhuman.)
