Bummer. The Unlikeable Lakers Rise Again. Where is the vomit smiley? Utah, thanks for the good times and good games this year. Maybe next year you can beat a superstar team. But don't count on it.
I went to bed when the Lakers were killing them in the third quarter. I guess I missed a big comeback, but oh well. Utah was not ready for primetime.
The Jazz had two chances to tie the score in the last 10 seconds but missed both three ball attempts. You have to wonder if they should have called a time after grabbing the rebound off the Laker miss and setting up a good shot, but I'm not sure if they had any TO's left. Korver looked set to take the first shot, but deferred to Memo who was coming down the sideline behind, but he may not have been in rhythm to take it and he clanged it. Boozer had fouled out 2 mins before this, but the JAZZ fought to the end...
I know its not Piston fan approved but I was rooting for the Lakers - so sue me. I like watching them play and hope for another Piston/Laker re-match. I want to see Jack Nicholson congradulate the Pistons again.
