Couldn't the Balrog have "helped" hem the Dwarves into the Chamber of Mazarbul? From one side, they would have had the Watcher in the Water, from the second side, they would have had a horde of Orcs, and from the third side, the Balrog. That could have also effectively hemmed them into the Chamber.
My own little speculation: Could Ori have been the Dwarf skeleton holding the Book of Mazarbul, or is that just the movie?
