Louis Williams' layup pulled Philadelphia to 108-107 with 40 seconds remaining. After Gilbert Arenas committed a turnover with 28 seconds left, Williams missed a potential game-winning 3-pointer as the final buzzer sounded.

At Los Angeles, Kobe Bryant scored 34 points, and Pau Gasol added 11 points and 16 rebounds as Los Angeles exploited a major size advantage in beating New York for its fourth straight victory.
Ron Artest scored 17 points for the Lakers, who took control of their eighth win in 10 meetings by scoring 17 consecutive points in the third quarter while holding the Knicks scoreless for nearly 71/2 minutes.
Andrew Bynum added 17 points and eight rebounds on an injured right ankle, although he barely needed to jump while helping Los Angeles to a 60-36 rebounding advantage over New York's undersized front line.
Nate Robinson and Wilson Chandler scored 15 points apiece for the Knicks.
Raptors 123, Pacers, 112
