After having faced the Lakers for the past three seasons in the playoffs in addition to the 4 games a year we see them during the regular season, there's not much more to preview. We know, and the Jazz know, what it takes to beat them.
Lately it's been being able to finish down the stretch. You simply can't go for 3 minutes scoring drought late in the fourth and expect to win. I've talked about having to be near-perfect for the Jazz to win. Let's amend that to being perfect in the fourth quarter.
The Jazz have played themselves into position to win each game of this series. Will they finally put it together late and pull out the first win of the series?
Let's hope.
