Bryant answered Battier’s triple with a three of his own and LA moved in front 102-100.

Rafer Alston has a chance to even the game but missed a pair of free-throws and after Paul Gasol hit just one of two from the line the Rockets had one last shot to even the game but Yao Ming took a 16-foot jumper despite trailing by three.
