Is their a losers bracket? You guys could play Denver.

In that case, are you guys going to play another series against each other after this one?

Boozer does that on just about every play...it's the only way the refs will notice.

That foul was pretty obvious, I dont think anyone wouldve missed Odom's jersey being stretched 3 feet....but odom's belly flop to the floor was comical!

throw in landry and you have a deal

You can have Mike Harris. Carlos isn't worth anymore than that.

I hope Jazz fans dont run their mouths about Kobe's fouls. That guy has earned 80% of them

The refs have been fine in this game.

The Jazz are losing because of poor bench play, absolutely hideous turnovers (Boozer with the vast majority of them), brilliant play by Kobe, good play in general from some Laker role players, and forgetting to attack the basket after they did so with some success in the first quarter.

I'm amazed it's only a 13 point game.

This thread is too funny.

Meh, we all know he's gonna get whatever he wants, not really shocking.

[Cracked Fingers]

Can Boozer rebound without pushing or holding? He could have easily fouled out in the 1st half if the refs wanted to call those.

Would we then play you again if we advance past Denver?

Lets face it, the Rockets would have got SMASHED by this team too.

The Lakers look strong and ready to run these playoffs.

I knew the Jazz would beat the Rockets, but the fact that it had to go to 6 games with that horrendously bombed and depleted out team told me all I needed to know about the Jazz's remaining playoff success. Slim to none.

Dude, we've played ONE half. Let's give this series a little time.

I agree that LA is a better team, though.

Someone already made that joke. I know it takes a while for you to think of obvious comebacks, though, so I'll let it slide...

It took me awhile because I was busy watching the Kobe fest on TV. Did you catch any of it?

Say we lived in some bizarre alternate universe where the Jazz were whipping the Lakers now and there were a bunch of Nugget fans here saying the same crap.

Are you telling me there would be no Laker fan responses?

[outerspacefella]

The difference in this game, beyond the obvious thing that most Jazz players aren't mentally tough enoguh, has been that Lakers subs killed Jazz subs at the start of the second quarter. You cannot let that happen because you will not be able to recover against a team like the Lakers.

And... I will insist... Boozer's a tool every time it really matters. I swear Jazz in clutch games would be better served with Okur playing the PF and any average center along him.

Props to Okur, Kirilenko, Williams, Brewer and even Miles. At least they do not look affraid of this game.

Enjoy.

No. We'd be at the beach in the 90 degree weather, duh.

I'd love to only have the back-and-forths with LA fans, but as long as the idiots are roaming through here trying to pull themselves out of the depths of despair with their nonsense, I'll continue to have interchanges.

I am pretty sure Rocket fans aren't in the depths of despair. Getting to game 6 against you guys without their starting Center (who is also their best player) and missing their starting PG for 2 and 1/2 games isn't something to be ashamed of.
