PLAYOFF HISTORY

This is the 6th time the Lakers have met the Jazz in the playoffs, the teams have played 29 games with the Lakers winning 15 and the Jazz 14. But the Lakers have won 8 of the last 9, and have eliminated the Jazz in each of the last two post seasons.

SERIES STATS AND NOTES

The Jazz are the leagues leading scoring team in the playoffs with a 108.1 per game average, but are also giving up 108.9 per game. The Lakers are averaging 98.5, while giving up 95.6. The Lakers are leading the league in defensive field goal percentage at .399, and rank 2nd in defensive 3 pt field goal percentage at .311.

The Lakers are also ranked number 1 in defensive rebounding with 265 rebounds, and rank number 1 overall in total rebounding with 361.

KEYS TO WINNING GAME 3

POUND INTERIOR
The Jazz are going to come out with tremendous energy to open the game, the Lakers have to weather the storm. To do this the Lakers must continue with the game plan of pounding out the Jazz interior defense. Bynum and Gasol must be assertive and effective early, score the easy buckets and stay close. If they do that they should take control of the tempo and silence the Jazz crowd.

TAKE CARE OF THE BALL
The Lakers are turning over the ball more than any team in the playoffs with 112 turn overs. Weathering the storm means taking care of the pill.

I think they can do what they did in gm 3 against OKC, I mean that crowd make SLC look like our crowd LOL.....but unlike OKC if we get the lead we can hold it cause Jazz dont really get out and run much.

That Fesenko guy is really horrible. I hope he's still playing big minutes.... :lol:

Feed the bigs early and often, Kobe should pick and choose when to score and be a facilitator since we have a major advantage down low, lets go Lakers make it 3-0

Yea Deep that's really your place here, keep us grounded and focused and our eyes on the prize when we get rattled or spray off on tangents. Cashman does the same. Nice GT BTW.

3-0 Guys. Let's stop these inferior teams from thinking they have a chance in the series by always dropping Game 3.
