So assuming you play the Lakers...
Are you just going to roll over and die?
It's pretty much been accepted around the NBA for a couple of months now, that whichever team ends up playing the Lakers in the first round is screwed. And honestly, the way the Jazz are struggling at the end of the year, it doesn't look good.
But does that mean you are giving up? Does that mean you are going to let the L.A. Lakers emasculate you on a national stage? It's time for the Utah Jazz to show the world that they are on the way up, and not headed for the recycle bin. It's time to at least make a series of it. And hell, if you start playing like a team again, maybe you get hot and surprise everyone. Every playoff team has a "puncher's chance" so to speak.
It's important to put everything on the line. If you're players come out, ready to be traded, or looking ahead to next year, you will be crushed, at home. At the very least protect your house. We all hate L.A. and it's our job to make sure they have the toughest road possible to the Finals. And that starts with you Utah.
So what's it going to be?

This is a self-serving post mjm
And I don’t blame you. The Lakers have voodoo magic and jedi mind tricks when the playoffs come around. It doesn’t matter what their seed is. I wish that were true of the Jazz, but I think the Jazz seeding is a self-fulfilling prophecy each year. If they aren’t favored, they don’t win.
I'll make it coach.
This team is playing like crap right now
but I genuinely believe that they have the talent to go all the way. At this point it would take an incredible coaching feat from Jerry Sloan and a whole lotta luck, but I think we can at least make the first round a tough round for whoever we end up playing. This team is deep with talented players but just can’t seem to play together when it matters.
AK47 must start NOW!
