Watch the replay, we already have a thread about this, and no, the elbow shouldn't have been called. Jameer just ran up to him and got hit while Kobe was already in the motion to pass.
I had the ball in a similar situation one time. I spun as a guy collapsed hard on me. I didn't realize how close he came in and even tho I tried to raise the ball at the last second to avoid him with my elbow, I knocked his tooth out. He left the game and later people told me not to worry, he was a dentist.
