I will kiss Batronuj if we win.

LA has nothing to play for. If you were LA wouldnt you try and beat us just to get us in the first round? We are really disjointed right now . . . not the best when heading into the playoffs. Dallas had been looking really good except for the last couple of games.

Not only do we need this game, but need a loss from either Dallas or NO.

Phil! Don't take any risks of getting your players injured! Rest KOBE!

I heard Shannon Brown is playing more PG lately as a defensive PG, wonder how much we'll see of him tomorrow on Deron.

We need a 1st quarter outburst, like the one we had in New Orleans
Just make a statement that we have come to play

Winning the 1st quarter is the key to winning games on the road for the jazz

I don't know what to think going into this game, either we get blown out and we settle for a quick and silent first round exit...or we put up a fight and maybe give LA a run for their money. Crazier upsets have happened in the playoffs (Mavs/Warriors)

Harpring should rough up Kobe

LAL has nothing to play... and probably NO is still worse than us.
We use to fight vs them, and ESA is not a good place to be the away team... so maybe Lakers will play wanting to lose... who knows.

I don't care what anyone says. Nobody in this league plays to lose. Especially LA. Even if they don't have their best players out on the floor the whole game, they are still going to bring it. If Lakers can't beat the Jazz in a 7 game series, they can't beat anyone in the West, and they know that.

I won't be watching this one, Jazz lose by double digits.

Do you consider yourself a Utah Jazz fan?

Hell yes, if I didn't care so much about this team, this kind of **** wouldn't upset me so much.

I am so glad Deron gets to see his best man squeeze Kobe.

Mabey they can kiss during introductions

If Kobe plays he wont let the Lake show lose. Expect Kobe to take charge and we better try and set the tone early cause we are going to get killed in the fourth.

i know it's all pretty much been, said just copy and pasting this from wiretap for what needs to happen as far as what seed we'll get

Utah will be seeded sixth with a win and losses from both the Hornets and Mavericks. If Utah wins and either the Hornets or Mavericks win (both not both), then they will have the seventh seed. If the Jazz lose OR Hornets and Mavericks win, then they will have the eighth seed.

Baller 24 wrote:Lakers' Jackson will not rest regulars in finale Los Angeles Lakers coach Phil Jackson said he will not sit regulars Kobe Bryant, Pau Gasol or Derek Fisher in the regular-season finale against any team, according to the Los Angeles Times. If the Cleveland Cavaliers win Monday night, they clinch the overall best record in the NBA, leaving the Lakers with what appears to be a meaningless home game against the Utah Jazz. But the first-round playoff opponent for the Lakers could be the Jazz. "I don't think of sitting players," Jackson said Sunday. "I don't think that's the right thing to do when people buy season tickets and special-game tickets and things like that, and the league has asked us not to do that. I have players that are going to play their 82nd game this week, hopefully, and that's a big milestone in this game, to have played them all." Bryant, Fisher and Trevor Ariza will have played all 82 regular-season games if they play Tuesday. Source: Los Angeles Times

Done and done.

Here we go KOBE here we go!!! :clap:

Drop 50 on the Jazz!!!
