Lakers hang on for 101-96 win in Game 2
Direct Link
LOS ANGELES (AP)—Stopped cold by a pick near the free-throw line, Kobe Bryant(notes) watched as Orlando’s Courtney Lee(notes) headed toward the basket and a shot at history.
Bryant was frozen. Suddenly, the Los Angeles Lakers’ march to a 15th NBA title—and his dream of a fourth—would be much tougher.
Lee’s last-second shot went up, and went out.
Lucky.
The Lakers remain in control of the NBA finals—just barely.
Lee missed a potential game-winning alley-oop as regulation ended, giving Los Angeles another shot it didn’t waste. Pau Gasol(notes) scored seven points in overtime and Bryant finished with 29 as the Lakers, so dominant in the series opener, survived with a 101-96 win over the Magic in Game 2 on Sunday night.
