This can't be good for the ratings. I know the Lakers have a problem with focus as their plays reaches greatness. They tend to slack a bit. But the Jazz just have been completely taken out of their game.

Thats the ONE negative in this series.

REbounding.

Lakers right now, could have blown this WIDE open if it wasnt for the rebounding advantage by the Jazz.

Dude, your saying Boozer is playing bad because he is color blind. That's almost as bad as telling a police officer you ran a red light because your color blind.

Pau is no softie


he can block shots and he has length, but Boozer looked good at the beginning of the game going against him..I don't know why he's playing soft and nervous now..bad passes and taking fadeaways..Okur is just inexcusable, but he's a playoff choker, so I guess I'm expecting too much..

It was a joke, apparently that's a lost concept to you..

I didn't realize how lame jazz fans are. This is going to be more fun than I thought.

I'd rather we just sit Boozer and play Millsap in the second half. Booz should have to forfeit $500,000 for every atrocious quarter he plays.

All the stuff the Jazz usually get away with..they aren't in this game. The holds the pushes the slaps at the ball. All fouls.

Who would the Lakers prefer to play, the Spurs or the Hornets?

My gut says the Hornets.

LOL at CJ Miles. He should be demoted to the NBDL for that one.
