Kobe Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers picked up their second straight NBA title, and a little measure of revenge on June 17, 2010. The Lakers defeated the Boston Celtics 83-79 in a hard-fought Game 7 of the NBA Finals. It was a rematch of the 2008 Finals, which Boston won in 6 games. It was a definite team effort as Bryant shot just 6-of-24 from the floor in the deciding game.
