KOBE BRYANT AND VANESSA RECONCILING... WITH THEIR MOUTHS

Another come-from-behind victory for Kobe Bryant ... sucking face and possibly reconciling with the woman who has now taken all of his homes .... Vanessa Bryant.

Vanessa showed up for the Lakers Valentine's Day victory over the Atlanta Hawks.  The two shared a kiss in the tunnel on the way into the locker room.

TMZ broke the story ... Vanessa filed for divorce in December, and they have already sealed the property settlement deal in which Vanessa got all 3 Newport Beach estates.

But sources told us at the time Vanessa filed ... don't be surprised if she goes back to Bryant.

And, although Kobe and Vanessa have submitted all the necessary docs to divorce, it doesn't become final until mid-June, so there's plenty of time to withdraw the papers.
