Orlando Magic need to win the next three games of the NBA Finals, but their score of 1-3 against the Los Angeles Lakers could have been so much closer. Game four was set up nicely at Amway Arena after Magic had won game three; Orlando's Dwight Howard set a Finals record with nine blocks to go with 16 points and 21 rebounds. But he missed a free throw with barely 2 seconds left in the game, tying the scores 91-91. In the photo below (by Ronald Martinez/Getty Images) Dwight Howard of the Orlando Magic looks down at Kobe Bryant of the Los Angeles Lakers after both players exchanged words in the third quarter in Game Four of the 2009 NBA Finals on June 11, 2009 at Amway Arena in Orlando, Florida:

For the Lakers Kobe Bryant scored 32 points and Derek Fisher made two clutch three-pointers to lead the Lakers to a 99-91 victory in overtime. The LA Lakers now need one more win in the remaining three games of the finals to clinch their 15th title; Orlando Magic need to win all three!
