LA 108 Utah 105 - Game 6


Bryant scored 34 points, 12 in the fourth quarter, and Los Angeles held off a furious rally by the Utah Jazz for a 108-105 victory Friday night in Game 6, putting the Lakers in the Western Conference finals for the first time in four years.

It was the only win by the visiting team in the series and kept the Lakers from having to host a Game 7 on Monday.

"It's a big step for us,'' said Bryant, who also had eight rebounds and six assists. "It shows a lot of character on our part to come in here and come out of here with a victory".
