It's happened four times - most recently against the Spurs when he scored from every conceivable angle in shooting 15-of-27 and didn't commit a turnover. Bryant pleaded not guilty to his sexual assault charge in Eagle, Colo., about 6 1/2 hours before the opening tipoff. He said he got about three hours sleep Monday night. "I don't know - I really don't know," he said when asked why he's been able to excel in such situations. There was Dec. 19, when he arrived during the first quarter of a game against Denver and made a 20-foot jumper as time expired to give the Lakers a 101-99 victory. There was March 24, when he scored 36 points in a 115-92 win over Sacramento. And there was April 28, when he had 31 points and 10 assists with one turnover in a 97-78 triumph over Houston in the fifth and final game of the Lakers' first-round playoff series against the Rockets.
