The jizz played about as well as they could, slurped the refs before the game, and the Lakers were as horrid as last year, and it was still a close game. Gasol you better show up in game 4. |

This game was definitely in reach. Morons just threw it away. |

Lamar didn't take any bad shot tonight and he didn't pass any open look.
I prefer that that forcing a shot and bricking it. |

True, but we shot 81% from the FT line, it's unrealistic to expect us to make all of them. Free throws really isn't our biggest concern. _________________ !

We weren't going through these playoffs undefeated. EVERY TEAM, even good teams, have bad games. The freaking Spurs got blown out by 20 points twice in a row and you don't see their fans crying like this. The important thing is that the Lakers regroup and come out focused on Sunday. |

A 7ft center playing 40 minutes needs to get more than 6 (bleep) rebounds. That's pretty bad. |

It was a bad play, but there were a lot of bad plays late in the game.
Kobe shot two airballs, commited 2 turnovers...
Don't blame it on Luke.
In fact, don't blame it on anybody. |
Great post. We simply didn't play well enough over 48 minutes to win, whereas the jazz put in a great effort and deserved the win.
Game 4 is a new game. Let's move on. |

i hope you meant to say jordan farmar. At least Luke did some things. Farmar has really sucked it up lately. _________________ "I have self-doubt. I have insecurity. I have fear of failure...everyone does. You don't deny it, but you also don't capitulate to it. You embrace it." -Kobe Bean Bryant |

Forget those two teams, we are likely going to be tied 2-2 by Sunday night.
I think this series is still going 6 games as I predicted prior to the start of it. _________________ Love, Laker Lanny |

Why are people going apesh** over this? Jazz played over their heads and won by 5. We get Gasol to play even a fraction better, and we take this in no more than 6. |

Ronny was terrific tonight. I feel like the paint is much more protected with him in there. |

He can take any Jazz big men off the dribble and he wussed out. 2 of his baskets were inside. |

Yes, he was aggressive, he attacked and drew fouls. He was 6-8 from the line thats an aggressive Lamar.
Pau on the other hand... |

apparently some people seem to feel losing game 3 automatically means losing game 4.
I agree with you though _________________ BORN REBLE |

I agree.
That's sports.
Utah Jazz is a good team, a great one in home, and they also want to win, you know.
I have, however, a problem with Bavetta's reffing tonight.
It was horrible. |
