whenever I predict a 11-point win Utah comes away with a W... so 111-100 Jazz...

The game tonight shows what kind of team we are. Are we going to bend over and let Kobe have his way like he did with the girl from Colorado or are we going to be MEN. MEN in the sense that we aren't going to have our bigs taking 20 foot fadeaway jumpers, MEN in the sense that we aren't going to let the refs control the outcome, MEN in the sense that our MVP takes control down the stretch and not let the Lakers pull off another 4th quarter win.

I think that even if AK doesn't play tonight (last I heard he's 50-50) I think we win on the road in similar fashion to game 2 against Denver. It may even be better to let AKs calf have until saturday before he puts game stress on it.

COME ON JAZZ... WE GOT THESE CLOWNS

We can win if AK-47 plays bc Fess is basically useless. Start AK-47 at PF and Boozer at center as best for AK-47 to play when warm instead of coming off the bench stiff. I have a feeling the Jazz could win this one.
Top 4 seed in the West!!! Guaranteed!!!

I predict the game will be canceled due to an escaped tiger at the LA Zoo.

Big game tonight. We had a chance in game 1, despite LA playing flawless in the first quarter. Hopefully it is our turn to play flawlessly and we can come away with a W. I dont see us winning the series without stealing one of these first two games.....so HUGE GAME! Lets go JAZZ!

Believe it or not there is method to this madness. The Lakers have a clear length advantage and NO lineup we put on the floor will be able to counter that. The logic is that we create a match-up advantage for ourselves by putting in a faster lineup. Play Price and Williams together for several minutes a game with AK at the 4 and CJ at the 3, hell even throw Millsap in there.

Price's quickness was a huge advantage for us last game, and also last year vs. the Lakers in the last playoff game.

It might not work for the entire game, but it's worth a shot in spurts, IMHO

That is what the Thunder did, they were smaller and quicker than the Lakers at every position, and you know how that ended, right?

Best to just accept your fate, like that guy near the end of Saving Private Ryan...

I really hope the jazz win, but I have a feeling this might be a blow out. Lakers by 15
