Finally we have a game! So I'm not going to expect much today, just want a win. We haven't played for like an entire week, so don't be surprised if we come out sluggish and play a sloppy game. Just win!
Milsap is playing tonight... He's been beasting this year and has filled in for Boozer nicely. Hopefully the Lakers don't take this team too lightly, the Jazz are still very dangerous.
Word. Pau Gasol, open court, behind the back, a fake and no look pass to Trevor Ariza for the dunk. Holy shit... How about Trevor Ariza though? What a beast. I love this kid. The Jazz were catching up, cut our 20 point lead down to 6, their possession. Ariza then makes a clutch steal when Giles was going Iverson on him, ran down the court, got the layup and and 1. The very next possession, he steals the ball again, Fisher is running down the court, chucks up a shot, doesn't hit rim, and ARIZA gets the offensive rebound and the put back. Holy shit I love that kid. All hustle. All heart. Great game too. Congrats to Pau, he just broke a scoring mark (forgot the #), and Kobe was terrific as well. 40 points. Just wish we didn't give up the big lead. lol.

Showtime! Nice find Trench, I was looking for that vid. Gasol is a beast. I'm amazed at how well he runs the break given his size.
On another season, he would easily be the #1 candidate... But LBJ (the NBA's golden child) is simply killing it... #2 in the East, similar record with the LAkers, way better stats than Kobe, not much talent on roster... The Media is having a field day as to why LBJ should be the MVP. BTW, what # was Kobe on the R2MVP around this time in 05-06? Wade's the Kobe (05-06) of this year and he's at 3rd in the R2MVP.
Terrific??? Surely you can do better than that LOL!!! Kobe had a near perfect and all - around game even for his standards. Very efficient shooting %, good assist - TO ratio... not to mention repelled the Utah rally to end the game... I'd say that was way better than terrific hahaha
