which one of those two "coulda beens" is dependent on one moment in time? Orlando is a lot closer to 2-1 than 0-3.

Both. Orlando needed everyone of those baskets just to win so you can pick any shot they made. In addition to needing a record shooting performance they needed LA to shoot 20% lower from the FT line including five Kobe misses and Kobe to go 4-15 from the field the last three quarters. They better hope they don't have to rely on that happening again.

This seems to ignore what the Lakers shot from the field in the 4th quarter, which was exceptional.

Having said that, the Lakers are a good road team, and they usually have occasional games where their defense is lacking, and then play hard when they really have to in order to win a game. And they only need 1 of the next 2 in Orlando to be in great shape.
