On Tuesday night the Los Angeles Lakers took on the Minnesota Timberwolves.  There was a familiar face for Kobe Bryant, Sam Mitchell, the new head coach of the Timberwolves, was the head coach of the Toronto Raptors that faithful night when the Black Mamba scored 81 points.  Mitchell probably thought things would go a lot smoother this time around with Bryant struggling but instead, Kobe scored a season-high of 38 points including seven three-pointers as the Lakers ended a 10-game losing streak with a 119-115 win over the Timberwolves.
