Jazz @ Lakers - Sunday, March 18, 7:30pm

He wont try hard to prove himself as he gets enough mins like the last few games.So he will have more games with 4-5 asts, I dont see him as a "cant pass" big.

Him or Kanter aren't natural passers at all. Hopefully they can develop a feel for it, but they won't have it like Boozer, Okur, and Malone did.
 
I went to the game, and it was awesome! First time I have seen them play the Lakers in person since they beat them on New Years Day in 06. The youngsters played great. I was on pins and needles the whole game though wondering if they were going to cough up the game. I was sitting behind this drunk Laker fan, and he kept on looking back each time I would cheer the Jazz scoring the basket trying to figure out who did it. Finally he got so irritated when the Lakers were about to lose that he said "the Jazz are not going to make the playoffs". Who knows if they will or not, but it was sweetness to see the Jazz beat his team!
 
Highlight of game had to be the CJ clank on that dunk. Or the CJ miss and then foul that could have cost the Jazz the game. I'm going to rewatch and look at his "d on Kobe. There have to be some good CJ plays, right?

Somewhat agreed on being natural passer.However it wont be a problem for some dishing out of double teams.Big Al isn't a natural passer too.But he can dish when he doesn't force on the every f* double teams.

Huh, I love the guy anyway.He will be an allstar no doubt.

Millsap came into the league nothing but a bruiser, and two years older than both Kanter and Favors. Malone - though bigger, more powerful, and more athletic - came into the league as a similarly styled (rather unskilled) player.

Never say never.
 
I am wildly impressed with this team. And proud of them. It's so fun to watch a bunch of guys so talented play with so much chemistry and so much heart. They all seem to like each other and want to play the right way. I'm sipping some really potent Kool-Aid right now, but **** it. As good a night as any to start, right?

If we win Tuesday I will connect an IV of Kool-Aid into myself.
 
Kanter was legitimately smiling non-stop throughout his 1 minute post game interview. Said he is "hanging around 24/7 with Burks, Gordon, Derrick and Jeremy". And that they protect him from Jamaal and Al, hahaha.


Amazing win.
The best part of that statement is that it includes Derrick. Remember last year right after the trade, Derrick mentioned he didn't hang out with anyone. Sounds like the youngsters are looking out for each other and building some camaraderie. That will be huge when it comes time to consider staying or leaving for bigger markets.
 
I think the best part of the game was reading the Lakers message board afterwards and seeing one post that went, "Who the **** is Burks?!"

For some reason that just cracked me up.
 
I'm sick at all the wrong times. Wish I could have seen this, or I wish my League Pass played the archived games for me (it doesn't). Excellent game, still nice to have Big Al gone, and IDK WTF CJ was doing out there. But young fellas are coming up, and how about Kanter's line tonight? Please Prodigy make some highlight vids of our bigs taking it to theirs!

I heard several Lakers fans at the Staples Center say things along the same lines. Haha
