Utah Jazz @ Los Angeles Lakers - Game Thread

Utah Jazz at Los Angeles Lakers, Jan 2, 2009 8:30 PM MST


Well, once the amazing Sugar Bowl game is over, make sure to switch to the Jazz game thread.  Great night of sports if you're a Ute/Jazz fan.

Paul Millsap will be back (and Jarron Collins!).  The Lakers are looking even more unbeatable than they did last year.

LA is not a good place for the youngsters to play.  Ronnie Brewer admitted that it's easy to get caught up in the LALA Land atmosphere.  Let's hope they've stayed on course for this game.

If the Jazz don't get blown out early, they should make a game of this.  They have been playing great team ball as of late and I still think they have that underdog spirit and naivete.  If they can play with that igorance and not get caught up in the hooplah,  they'll be in good shape.

Game thread might be slow to start out.  But look for it to pick up.

What an ugly game.

Congrats to the Utes though.

Utes win!!!!

Sadly, the Jazz don’t seem interested in following the lead.

I'm not sure

this lead is surmountable. Too little time. If we were in ESA maybe, but not at Staples.

CJ Miles

two foolish fouls. May be the difference between a huge win and a frustrating loss.

THREE foolish fouls and a turnover.

Of all the boneheaded CJ Miles plays tonight...

The worst was when he got stripped at the top of the key by Kobe Bryant while trying to drive. It isn’t because he got stripped, but because you know he was doing his own thing totally outside of the offense. I am sure that Sloan drew up an isolation play or CJ to take Kobe Bryant. And there was over 10 seconds left on the clock. And that made the lead go from 6 to 9 and ultimately cost us all our momentum.

The more you try to erase me, the more that I appear.
