KOBE Bryant and Derek Fisher hit back-to-back 3-pointers in the final minute as the Lakers held on for a 111-110 victory over the Utah Jazz that put Los Angeles on the verge of sweeping the Western Conference playoff series.
The Jazz had two chances to win it in the final 4 seconds, but Deron Williams missed from the top of the key and Wesley Matthews' tip just before the buzzer bounced off the rim.
Bryant finished with 35 points and Fisher scored 20 for the Lakers, who can close out the four-game sweep with a win Monday night in Game 4. Pau Gasol added 14 points and 17 rebounds for Los Angeles.
Williams scored 28 and Kyle Korver added a career playoff-high 23 points for the Jazz.
Magic 105, Hawks 75
At Atlanta, Rashard Lewis scored 22 points and the backups helped Orlando pull away early with Dwight Howard on the bench as the Magic romped to another playoff blowout, moving to the brink of their second straight sweep.
It was also the Hawks' worst home playoff loss in franchise history.
Howard had 21 points and 16 rebounds but was hardly dominating. No problem for the Magic, who have so many complements to Superman and allowed many of them to shine in Orlando's seventh straight postseason victory and 13th straight win overall.
Lewis knocked down four 3-pointers. Jameer Nelson scored 14 points. Mickael Pietrus chipped in with 13, hitting three shots from outside the arc. The Magic are up 3-0 in the best-of-seven series, winning by an average margin of 29 points.
