I know people remember the game....
We all remember the outcome....
Revenge is coming...

Lakers and Jazz have not met in the Playoffs since 1998 when they were swept in the Conference finals..

revenge is a dish best served cold

lets wait and finish off the nuggets first, premature victory doesn't look flattering on you

Curious: How do you get swept if it makes it to Game 5?

actually, if i recal correctly, the lakers DID meet after 1998...

in 2001, didnt the lakers sweep the kings in the first round, JAZZ IN THE SECOND ROUND, and spurs in the conf. finals?

Nah, the Jazz lost to the Mavs in the first round in 2001.

Anyone wonder what Shaq was telling Kobe at the end of the video?

No.

Portland in the first round. Sacramento in the 2nd round. Spurs in the conf finals.

11-0

I saw that, He probably just said keep your head up. We'll be back. Just guessing though.

Shaq was saying, "You'll never ever be better than my man Eddie!"
