                                Look for the defending champions to get a good start in this series.

I cannot see the Lakers losing this one at home.

                                I just can't see the Lakers missing the finals. The West just isn't very good this season and although the Lakers are a step or two behind last year's team, they still have more than enough to eliminate their Western competition. I'm certainly not rooting for this, but I'm afraid that there isn't much out there to stop it.

                                Well...I was wrong on the Thunder...I never thought Durant would choke so badly.  But he did.
Now I'm calling for the Jazz to win here. The Lakers will not advance to the finals. Their bench is weak.
and anyobe that thinks the West is weak this year needs to do a little google search. The West was 8 deep in strong teams.

                                Jazz cannot win at LAL correct? Or did they win recently at the Staples Center.

                                ^^^^^^^^I simply believe Williams and Boozer are way more focused to make a name for themselves in a series like this.
Which way I don't know...but I don't see this being a very close series.
Lakers in 5 or Jazz in 6

                                Jazz do have a couple of things going for them....they have the best coach in the game and the Lakers haven't played well in a while.  I still cannot picture them beating the Lakers....too many injuries.

                                If DFish blows by you, that's just bad.. all bad.

                                So far today, the Lakers are playing exactly how they should have played against the Thunder.  The defense could be better but it's solid--smart offense today though.  Kobe is playing well today.

                                Lack of depth is hurting them big time right now.  Kobe's gettin' a lot of rest though.  Turning out to be a decent game.

                                Jazz up 3 with a little over 6 minutes left in the game

                                Gasol going to the line to tie it up.  I think they're fine, the bench didn't hurt them too badly when they were on the floor and the starters got some pretty good rest.

                                I think Gasol plays with the most heart on the Lakers, he wouldnt give up on that play
