Post #21 » by **FJS** » Thu Apr 23, 2009 8:48 pm

Some guys here are going too much nasty...

Well, I like what D-Will has said. The series aren't over. This is confidence,and we need him
They barely beat us shooting 60% FG in their house, so we can dream, at least.
I'm sure they didn't his best, but sometines giving 100% you don't shot 60%.

Let's gonna win our home games baby!

This isn't a "gimme" game for the jazz. Jazz lose this game, the laker don't want any type of momentum change and will be prepared for tonight.

I think starting AK is a smart move. He is going to play harder.

What I don't understand is why no one has asked Sloan about the reason for not trying Koufos or Fesenko out there for some minutes...

Man . . . I really like the idea of a Price, Korver, Miles, MIllsap, X - 2nd unit.

Sounds good to me. I love Kyle, but he's been garbage thus far in the series (though AK hasn't exactly been stunning). Maybe a move back to the bench will do him good.

I lke the switch. Korver should be ok off the bench and AK should feed off of the energy of our crowd and minimize the stupid stuff. And if he plays well he could prove to make a big play defensively down the stretch.

Not sure why Kobe seems to think that our crowd motivates him? He's only won one playoff game here and it's not like LA has dominated us in SLC during the regular season throughout his career either. You know he's going to try and take over tonight.

As long as AK keeps playing like the black hole he's been and Sloan insists on getting dominated inside with the booz/sap defensive combo, we will lose by double digits tonight.

Well I like the points in the paint but we need some in transition. We should be off to a better start at home.

Deron needs to be a bit more in control. That charge is a good example. If he would have passed to Brewer two steps sooner, it's 2 points.

ak is playing suprisingly good, we are getting a bit too excited and making some stupid decisions.

when will brew make a jumper?

lol @ kobes pregame interview. bitch is sweatin bullets.

Boozer taking it inside is money. Passing is great, and AK is playing well after a horrible pass to start the game. Gasol missing shots that he seemed to always make in LA is big. I just hope LA starts missing some of their 3's.

How was that a foul? The guy falls down on his own and it's a foul. If it was Wade or Roy, I'd understand, but Walton? Come on.

Sloanfeld · Post #38 » by **Sloanfeld** » Fri Apr 24, 2009 3:11 am

Thought Walton was out of bounds. Pretty good D so far, offense could be a tad bit better with fewer TO's but I love the fact that we are going inside. Millsap missed Korver wide open for 3 but Brewer made the shot so it's all good.

the jazz would be up 2-0 in these series if they could finish around the basket...it is just so poor. out of all available commodities, i think that's the major thing missing from this team, poor around-the-basket finishing

Good to see Boozer came to play!
