[SUPER=03-Philadelphia, PA/NBC Sports;:00]
Philadelphia native Kobe Bryant was a man amongst boys as he won the MVP award scoring a game high 31 points in 29 minutes - even though he was booed in his hometown. Tracy McGrady had the shot of the day. Watch the backboard pass to himself as he catches it and slams it down going through four men on the way. And from the everyone has a bad day file - Chris Webber misses the dunk on the West. The East breaks out, the crowd rises to its feet and Michael Jordan misses a jam.
