Stern is in Boston for that game, so Kobe will not get his MVP today like you said.

3+ 3-Pointers: Farmar, Fisher.

Closest To A Triple-Double*: Luke.

Point Margin: Lakers by 4.

Out On A Limb: The fans at Staples Center imitate those in Utah and boo Fish, which gets Kobe angry and he goes off for 82.

We all know our starters can hold there own. If we are to win this series, our bench needs to contribute tremendously. Benga needs to go in and continue playing the way he played againns Denver. Farmar and Sasha need to also step it up at least 20 points between them and Luke with at least 12 points per game and we got this.

I think the toughest team will win.

Which of course is the Lakers.

cant wait to see Farmar play stellar again, he’s averaged some nice numbers against the Jazz this season.

PS. cant let Paul Millsap score more than 12

Keys to this series between Lakers-Jazz:
Rebounding will kill us if we don’t do it, but we need Gasol and Odom to get at least 8 rebounds from both of them and get a ton of defensive rebounds and stop the Jazz from getting any second chance points.

If the Lakers can somehow make Deron a scorer and not a playmaker then we’ll win for sure! I think we’ll need Kobe on D-Will, I don’t think Fisher can handle him also because he has an injured foot.

Those are basically the two things we need to do in order to not have a Game 6. I doubt we’ll sweep, but a 5 game series with us as the victors suits me just fine, including we’ll be well-rested enough to go against the Spurs (I’m not even going to mention the Hornets, I mean, no offense to them, but seriously, Hornets beating the Spurs? That’s illogical, right?). Also I think we’ll have Ariza back by Mid-2nd Round probably at best, but you never know, they might end up saving him for Ginobili, as for Bynum, well, let’s just say he’s in a better place than on the floor (on his bed).
