Game #10 : Lakers at Utah, Wednesday 01/11/2012 7:00 PM MST

[MK11]

Please read the end of the second post... Because there is a huge misunderstanding about why I post this thread early...

LA Laker vs Utah Jazz

*Where is it?

It is at/in EnergySolutions Arena in Salt Lake City in Utah in USA.
Here are the coordinates, 40°46′6″N 111°54′4″W, don’t get lost.

*Is it on TV?

It’s on RootSports for local fans. International fans can watch it via NBALP if they’ve purchased it. I don’t know any international broadcasters who will show the game.
Other than that, I think it’s illegal to write down illegal stream links like

Probable LA Lakers Starters :

Probable Utah Jazz Starters :

And at Small Forward Position, my favourite pale player Gordon Hayward...

Sorry guys, I couldn’t stop him.

(One day earlier...)
Ty : No Harp, I can’t put you in.
Harp : But why? Please, give me a chance.
Ty : No, no, no, you can’t play anymore Matt, especially with... err ...that hair.
Harp : Oh my hair? Ok then, I’m gonna fix it, I promise, please put me in...
Ty : But what about your layups?!
Harp : Damn it!
Ty : Admit it Harp, you’re done, you are history now. Go and just do your new job, comment the game.
Harp : Ok ok, but I don’t like Boler and I can’t even tell him.
Ty : Hey, dont worry about it, he doesn’t like you either.
Harp : He doesn’t? Damn...!
Ty : What?
Harp : Err.. Nevermind.
Ty : ...?
Harp : Please Ty, I just want one more chance, I’m good, I’ve never quit the gym, also I am not racist.
Ty : Ok, that’s enough! Hey Raja, CJ! Get him the hell outta here!
Harp : Hmmm... I’ve been wondering what the hell they do for the team. Hey hey hey, don’t touch me!
Ty : By the way, Harp, don’t keep telling during the game how you were doing the things while you’d been playing, It’s very repulsive!
Harp : (As he gets the gate...) What!? How can even you know that?


Ok, here is the real deal, at SF position, Gordon Hayward...

Ty : Gordon!
Hayward : Yes, sir!
Ty : I’m afraid you should fix your hair too!

For the latest Jazz Team Statistics : https://espn.go.com/nba/team/stats/_/name/utah/utah-jazz
For the latest Lakers Team Statistics : https://espn.go.com/nba/team/stats/_/name/lal/los-angeles-lakers



An Interesting Info :
Utaj Jazz Team’s Average Age is (Enes Kanter 19 + Derrick Favors 20 + Alec Burks 20 + Gordon Hayward 21 + Jeremy Evans 24 + CJ Miles 24 + Paul Millsap 26 + Al Jefferson 27 + Devin Harris 28 + Josh Howard 31 + Earl Watson 32 + Jamal Tinsley 33 + Raja Bell 35) / 13 = 340 / 13 = 26.2.

Lakers have an average age of 28.3. But they have an old core with some young average players.
On the other hand the Jazz team have a very young core with some quality(well, not all of them) veterans.

• Injuries : There are no significant injuries on both teams other than Lakers’ Derrick Caracter who had a knee surgery in mid december and expected to be back in mid January.

• Key Matchup : There will be plenty of quality matchups but I think our both guard matchups will be the most crucial ones. It’s importont for us to distrubute the ball well as well as making Kobe struggling.

• Keys to the game : I think will be fine in the paint in despite of the presence of twin towers of the Lakers. But our perimeter shooting performance and perimeter defence will be very important. The Jazz team have a quality bench, so another essence for the win will be making use of it.

• Meaning of the game : REVENGE!


Some “Did you know?” facts:

If you are left handed too like me, you are in the group of 10-12 % of the world population.

And a basketball related one; according to Spalding, their balls, I mean, average NBA basketballs have a lifespan for 10,000 bounces. I would expect more, wouldn’t you?

Here is another one and it’s good: Apparently the very first form of basketball was played for hundreds of years before modern basketball was introduced. The remuneration was also quite different from what today’s stars get. In Mayan times (300 – 900 AD), a player who scored a goal could claim the property of any spectator that he could catch. Sounds entertaining!

Coaching Battle :

A Jerry Sloan Nostalgia for the ones who can’t keep up with the time... : https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=qEjOQuE57rQ#!



Rivalry history :
We are not the superior one in this rivalry but I always enjoy playing against them.

Song of the game : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9GBWYqxhegQ In ESA, everyting will be alright... “Goin' Home Tonight” from White Lion (it’s just for my mood and own taste, you are all free to pick another song from among the other exactly 97218456 songs.)


The Wrangle of The Mascots :
I think our bear is a beast and the best. But this time Jazz Bear may struggle.

And finally, two classy “good luck” girls.

Note 1 : I made the thread this morning but I have to post it a little bit early because I am going to go to my ma’s home after some for a week. Unfortunately they don’t have internet. I will try to update it via internet cafe if something changes or in case of a necessity.

Note 2 : Made the thread with all my respect to Kobe, Harp, Nate505 and of course PKM.

Note 3 : My apologies to everyone for the crowded thread and mistakes.

Note 4 : Ron Artest - He has changed his name only legally, not in my mind.

Note 5 : ESA is NOT that ugly in reality.

Note 6 : Lineups are from my own expectations.

Note 7 : Challenge... NaretevsrekalgnissimehttsopdnadniflliwohwenotsrifehtotpeR.

Pre-mature threadjaculation

 

[One Brow]

Usually, we don't start a game thread until the prior game is finished. If you don't set a limit, you get 70+ threads expected to be stickied before the preseason starts.

 

[DutchJazzer]

seriously.

never look past a gfame even as a fan.
because of your bad luck something will go wrong

 

[DutchJazzer]

neg repped appropriately

 

[MK11]

Please don't get upset with me

I explained the reasons in second post.

Thread was crowded so it didn't let me at once.

 

[MK11]

Pre-mature threadjaculation

Lol... I feel relaxed...

 

[Thee Idiotic Minivan K]

OMFG!!! I hope you didn't screw with Nate's mojo! Idiot!!!!!!!

 

[Thee Idiotic Minivan K]

Can a thread be erased from Jazzfanz, if so do it!

This is the kind of thing that can destroy a season!

Sorry...

I have spent two hours for this and I didn't want to waste it. I explained at the end of my second post why I post it early.

For jinx issue, I hope you are wrong.

 

[Thee Idiotic Minivan K]

I also think it's a huge insult to see faker trash wearing jazz gear! How dumb are you!

 

[MK11]

Usually, we don't start a game thread until the prior game is finished. If you don't set a limit, you get 70+ threads expected to be stickied before the preseason starts.

I couldn't post my second post in time so so I couldn't explained myself. Apologies to everyone.

 

[Thee Idiotic Minivan K]

You couldn't wait!

 

[cctrackstar]

Yeah, I don't have the time or patience to read something that long, even if it were for the current game. Remember, too that all games count the same in the standings, so the game tonight is exactly the same value as tomorrows.

 

[billyshelby]

I see a lot of potential in MK11. I say keep doing your thing.

 

[MK11]

You couldn't wait!

You didn't read this? It is at the end of my second post. I won't be able to post it later. Sorry again everyone. My sincere apologies...

 

[Thee Idiotic Minivan K]

I don't care how much time he put into his post. You don't mess with a good streak. Until the jazz lose Nate should do every game thread. Now the Jazz might lose to the Cavs.

 

[DutchJazzer]

I dont care if you spent a lifetime on this.
