    Key Matchup

    Kwame Brown vs. Mehmet Okur

    In Utah's latest game against the Lakers, Mehmet Okur was made a starter. He has been coming off the bench most of the season, and didn't disapoint in the starting role, going for 27 points, 16 rebounds and 5 assists. Memo is a big part of the Jazz offense, with his ability to score inside and out. Brown will have to be prepared to defend the 3 ball, and rebound if Memo goes inside.

    Prediction

    Jazz by 1.

    This should be a good game, I think the Jazz can win this game. They almost beat them in Washington and I think the Jazz have something to prove to the Wizards. I say Jazz by 7.

    Another 1 point loss to the Wizards [​IMG] . To make it even worse for Utah, Kirilenko gets injured and will be out for the rest of the season [​IMG] . Matt Harpring and Raja Bell both played well of the bench, and the Jazz had a chance at winning this game, they just let it slip like they've done many times this season.
