The Lakers got a 111-110 victory on Saturday night, but the series nearly went to 2-1 as Utah forward Wesley Matthews 
just missed a tip at the buzzer. Los Angeles leaned heavily on its starters in the win as the Lakers' bench produced a mere 23 points and nine rebounds.
Kobe Bryant poured in a game high 35 points to go along with four rebounds and seven assists. Ron Artest added 20 points as did point guard Derek Fisher, but center Andrew Bynum contributed zero points and four rebounds in 20 minutes of action.
The Jazz outshot and outrebounded the Lakers (42 to 39), but they had three fewer three point baskets than Los Angeles and four more turnovers. Deron Williams had a big night for Head Coach Jerry Sloan in the loss, dropping in 28 points while dishing out nine assists. Kyle Korver had 23 points off the bench after going a perfect 5-for-5 from beyond the arc. Carlos Boozer contributed his usual yeoman's effort with 14 points and 14 rebounds.
Utah has not lost four straight games all season long and it has lost just twice in a row at home one time this season. Expect the Jazz to lay it all on the line tonight in this critical game four showdown.
