GSW-UTA/POR-LAC

[ItsMyFault]

4/11/09 Game Thread

Golden State @ Utah -- I think Utah will take this one since they are at home and have been slumping lately, they are due for a win. They don't want to fall to the 8th seed, but we want them to. Go Warriors!

Portland @ Los Angeles (Clippers) -- I think Portland will most likely take this, but I'm hoping for an upset so they can move further away from us. It really doesn't matter though unless the Lakers lose to them. Go Clippers!

[1individual]

I pray Warriors can pull out a win. If they hit 3's like they did in the last 2 minutes today Jazz can't do anything. I'm crazy enough.

[A_3PO]

This is the equivalent of a playoff game for the Jazz. They will clobber the sorry Warriors.

If such a thing is possible with the Clippers, tomorrow's contest could be a "trap" game for the Blazers if they can't get the Lakers win out of their system. Even if they end up winning, I wouldn't be surprised to see the Blazers fall way behind in the 1st half.

[TheRealist137]

yeah the warriors will be suiting up only 8 players and the game is at Utah. There is about a 2% chance the jazz lose.

[fan#1099]

wasn't that the same scenario last week against a certain team from Minnesota?

[ScriboErgoSum]

Nothing to see here. Move along.

The Jazz will demolish a short-handed Warriors team. Utah gets a ton of calls at home, and it's not like the Warriors have many to give up. I guess we'll see what happens if the 3 players foul out. This (http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showpost.php?p=4393517&postcount=13) is what the rule book says.

The Blazers will not let up. This is a hot team and they will annihilate the Clippers. They are too close to home court to blow it on the Clippers, especially after their last 2 clutch victories.

[rpr52121]

I could see the Blazers getting lackadaisical. This is road game, back-to-back, after two big wins against Spurs and Lakers. This is still a young team. They could definitely overlook this game.

Yes I do realize the clippers are horrible and shorthanded, but they gave the Lakers a game for 3.5 quarters, before the Lakers woke up

[smoothie]

no upsets tonight.

now the spurs @ the kings tomorrow might be fun ;)

[doublebogey]

Easy win for the Jazz. The warriors only have 7 players.

The Clippers have a chance to beat the Blazers. Z-Bo is back from suspension and he may want to kick the Blazers behind.

[doublebogey]

btw, Z-Bo scored 38 pts in his 1st game vs Blazers as a Clipper. And he didn't play in the 2 loses vs Blazers. Let's see if there is Z-Bo magic tonite.

Not that I think Utah will lose, but they recently lost to the T-Wolves at home.

[Convictedstupid]

I didnt see anyone say this, but OP you do know that the jazz are already in the 8th seed right?

[TheRealist137]

I didnt see anyone say this, but OP you do know that the jazz are already in the 8th seed right?
It doesn't matter until the end of the season.

[ItsMyFault]

I didnt see anyone say this, but OP you do know that the jazz are already in the 8th seed right?

What I meant to say there was that I wanted the Jazz to stay the 8th seed. They aren't the 8th seed for sure yet, right now wherever anyone in 6,7, or 8 is doesn't really matter. It's going to shift around a bit with a few games remaining and all the tie-breaker stuff and etc.

[TesseracT]

lol I'm watching the Bulls pre-game and this guy said Rafer is one of the worst shooters in the league. He knows his stuff.

[A_3PO]

After the 1st quarter, the T-Wolves are down 31-8 at home against Phoenix. Utah must be asking itself how they blew a home game against them last week.

[Kwame]

Anybody got links for either of these two games?

[airbulllard]

gstate up by 9. if they pull this off, this may seal utah as the 8th seed...

[abc2007]

Go warriors! You are true warriors! :D

[CountyClerk]

Jesus Christ! every I watch a Jazz game I hate them even more :mad: What a bunch of overrated floppers, man i hope they lose to the Warriors and end up at 8th.

[plates300]

GSW announcers are getting pissed...no fouls called on Utah in the 2nd quarter vs 11 fouls on GSW. Really hope GS beats out Utah.

[Codman]

It would be sweet if the Warriors took out the Jazz in that miserable state.

[JayGoogle]

A loss here pretty much should lock Utah into the Lakers...which would end all this "Should we get #2 seed?" Yes we should, shouldn't even worry about Utah. They are not that good anymore.

[CountyClerk]

Is this the Utah Jazz we are so afraid of? Its so hard to believe that we cant beat this utah team in a 7 game series

[rawool]

Go Warriors! Hopefully they can sustain the lead in the 2nd half.

[abc2007]

It seems the jazz have a problem to play aginst this type of offense-mind team. Jazz's defense isn't good.

[tsunami]

refs want to foul out 3 GS players so that they can only play 4 vs 5 against Jazz. Watch out...

[worzel gummidge]

Hopefully, Nellie doesn't bring out a "Listen chaps, we're trying to win the lottery..." HT speech.

[archinkent]

wow what a shot by cj watson.

anyway, this is definitely not the same jazz team that beat us last time we played. i remembered they played great defense, and theyve played almost none in this game. also theyre missing wide open shots (mostly by ak). i dunno man, jazz arent that scary anymore

[Kwame]

GState up by 13 at the half. The only reasons the Jazz are in it is because of the refs. The Rockets need to go after Randolph. He's young, he's got size, he can handle the ball, he's got range and can take other bigs off the dribble, and he can board. Sure he got schooled by Mutombo last night, but he reminds me of a poor man's Chris Bosh. He could either be Yao's backup for the future or play along side him as well.

[JayGoogle]

Sure wish he would have used that last night lol.

Are you sure? He'll have to visit a psychiatrist every day in downtown Houston after daily death stares from Mutumbo. :D

[tsunami]

I am now scared to death that if Jazz finally become the 8th seed, while Yao misses playoffs because of injury and we lose this rare opportunity....

[A_3PO]

The Jazz are going to come back and win this game. I seriously doubt the Warriors will have enough to finish them off.

[CountyClerk]

LMAO @ the failed flop attempt

[1individual]

Technical on Okur! haha

[rawool]

I am having fun watching this. Up 17 points!

[A_3PO]

The Jazz are going to come back and win this game. I seriously doubt the Warriors will have enough to finish them off.
One qualification: If C.J. Watson continues to go nuclear and makes this his career game, it could happen.

[BrooksBall]

The Jazz are going to come back and win this game. I seriously doubt the Warriors will have enough to finish them off.

Agreed. A Jazz surge combined with a GS meltdown is likely coming up very shortly.

[Kwame]

Harpring is such a flopper and dirty player to boot. No wonder Sloan loves him so much. I'm thinking GState is going to win this if the refs allow it.

[rawool]

3 players with 4 fouls, still 16 minutes left in the game.

CJ is zoned in.

[tsunami]

wow GS in big foul trouble now

[Gakatron]

this would cement them into 8th for sure... they will lose their road game and win their home game they have left after this. please Jazz lose!! haha I am surprised they have fallen off like this, wonder where those ESPN 'experts' that said they were the biggest threat after LA will be if they drop this.

[1individual]

I feel bad for the warriors.. they only have 7 players and some with 5 fouls and technicals.. who they gonna use?

[BrooksBall]

Harpring is such a flopper and dirty player to boot. No wonder Sloan loves him so much. I'm thinking GState is going to win this if the refs allow it.

This needs to be emphasized, as usual. I can't stand that punk.

[airbulllard]

the fouls are gonna catch up and jazz will prob come back and win. sad really, the refs will not let the jazz lose at home tonight.

eff your jazzholes

[Gakatron]

Is it Bennelli who is suited up? I know last night they said he would probably play if he had to... hell anyone would be happy to hobble about for a few minutes just to get a win against Utah.

[rawool]

Wow, Harpring starts this half, and he's already hitting people in the face with his elbows, a flagrant foul, and undercutting players. Coincidence? I think not.

[BrooksBall]

Wow, Harpring starts this half, and he's already hitting people in the face with his elbows, a flagrant foul, and undercutting players. Coincidence? I think not.

You're right, no coincidence at all. He is the definition of dirtbag.

[TesseracT]

Matt Harpring should have become a football player. Don't bring this **** into the nba.

[ibm]

does the gsw still just suit up 7 players? what happens if 3 of them foul out before the game ends?

[Gakatron]

might have to give this Warriors team more credit than I did last night. To back up after competing with the third team in the west on the road to winning like this against Utah in SLC is impressive when you got only 7 players.

[Gakatron]

does the gsw still just suit up 7 players? what happens if 3 of them foul out before the game ends?
They have to suit up 8.... I think the rules state they can play with 4 players on the court.. but that is Fiba rules so it could be different in the NBA

[BrooksBall]

Turiaf got fouled twice before they stripped the ball from him.

[tmacfor35]

might have to give this Warriors team more credit than I did last night. To back up after competing with the third team in the west on the road to winning like this against Utah in SLC is impressive when you got only 7 players.

Winning in SLC is impressive in its own feat. This is shocking. I have a feeling the Warriors will blow this but still, what an effort they are putting out tonight. Do the Jazz want to play the Lakers in the first round?

[Shaud]

The Jazz most be trying to face the Lakers in the 1st round. :confused:

[The Brian]

i love the warriors.

being from the bay area, they are naturally my second favorite team and i love that they're helping us out with this surprising beatdown.

[CountyClerk]

Mean while Clips Vs. Blazers CLips leading 7-5 with about 5mins to go in the 1st lol

[ibm]

the jazz must be trying hard to avoid us. :D

[BrooksBall]

They have to suit up 8.... I think the rules state they can play with 4 players on the court.. but that is Fiba rules so it could be different in the NBA

I believe there is some weird rule where you can bring back a player that has already fouled out when you only have 4 players left who are under the foul limit but the other team shoots a tech every time a foul is committed after that. I'm not sure at all of this but I think I read something to this effect in another thread several months ago.

[mw_mw]

GO WARRIORS!

[archinkent]

They have to suit up 8.... I think the rules state they can play with 4 players on the court.. but that is Fiba rules so it could be different in the NBA

nah, player who fouls out get to stay, but he gets a technical.

btw, i see some of u guys are giving up on the warriors. theyre gonna win, cuz jazz is just playing horrible

[Codman]

The Warriors will have to play hard to avoid a strong Utah run, and group of refs who might fall for some late-game flopping.

[YourSecretLover]

rooting for clippers!!!

[BrooksBall]

Randolph is playing point forward until Watson comes back in. :D

[Gakatron]

The Jazz most be trying to face the Lakers in the 1st round. :confused:
Don't forget the importance of that last game. Utah @ Lakers... the Lakers obviously are locked into their position and if Cleveland have secured HC for the playoffs by then they really have nothing to play for....except that if I am the Lakers I would rather not have to go to SLC even with the Jazz sucking and would prefer to play the Mavs, so I wouldn't be surprised if you see the Lakers send out a depleted side and hope the Rockets knock off the Mavs. Thinking a bit ahead I know but a likely event.

[The Brian]

jazz/lakers first round would be incredible for us. :D

[CountyClerk]

you've got to be angry if you're a Utah Jazz fan right about now. this is some ugly basketball

[mw_mw]

wow warriors are playing amazingly! :D

[pppbigppp]

lol wow :D

Take notes Clippers, you can do it too!

[TheBigAristotle]

Man. Utah is in full-tank mode right before it matters the most. They might not be such a fearsome opponent afterall if they keep losing all their games up until the playoffs.

On a random note, Orlando continues to choke to every bottom feeder team in the league. Strange.

[BrooksBall]

Yet another stupid foul by the Jazz with time running out on the shot clock.

The Jazz do look awful but I won't be shocked if they make a big run to get back into it.

[mw_mw]

Don't forget the importance of that last game. Utah @ Lakers... the Lakers obviously are locked into their position and if Cleveland have secured HC for the playoffs by then they really have nothing to play for....except that if I am the Lakers I would rather not have to go to SLC even with the Jazz sucking and would prefer to play the Mavs, so I wouldn't be surprised if you see the Lakers send out a depleted side and hope the Rockets knock off the Mavs. Thinking a bit ahead I know but a likely event.


Lakers will win the last game...builds momentum :p

[Gakatron]

Lakers will win the last game...builds momentum :p
i'm sure who they send out will try and win but if theres nothing left to win for don't expect to see Kobe and Gasol playing big minutes if at all.

[rawool]

That's what I was thinking as well. But if Cleveland loses to Boston tomorrow, the Jazz game will have meaning since it's a possibility the Cavs could lose to Philadelphia the next day.

[mw_mw]

i'm sure who they send out will try and win but if theres nothing left to win for don't expect to see Kobe and Gasol playing big minutes if at all.

true... whatever happens, we'll see =)
jazz is playing horrible lol

[Gakatron]

they are sneaking back in

[airbulllard]

it ain't gonna happen, but i'm really praying

[Evil Empire]

GO CLIPPERS! GO NOVAK!

[BrooksBall]

This game is far from over. The Jazz have made up deficits like this at home with less time left against better teams.

[rocketsregle]

The Warriors play with a lot of heart, at least that's my perception from the times I've seen them play. They make boneheaded plays that costs them wins but they leave it all out on the floor.

I hope they can hold off the Jazz ... it would suck for them to lose the game after they outplayed the Jazz for most of the game.

[abc2007]

Compare to the hornets and the mavs, I believe the lakers prefer to play the jazz. At most, the lakers need 5 games to beat the jazz.

Don't forget these kids are playing a back to back on the road and all played big minutes... plus some of these guys are rookies or players not used to playing these sorta minutes consistently. I hope they can hold on but don't be surprised if they don't have the legs to do it.

[Codman]

Rob Kurz with the big shot!!!

[The Brian]

i think warriors will pull this one out.

[NateNate]

WOW if GS can pull it out we dont have to tank against dallas to screw utah! GO GS

[Gakatron]

apparently you can grab the opponents arm and shoot and u get two free throws... only in Utah.

[CountyClerk]

lol how was that a foul?

[The Brian]

lol utah refs cheating as usual.

[archinkent]

man that was the worst call ever :eek:

[BrooksBall]

Williams completely hooked Watson with his right arm. Pathetic. Truly pathetic.

[The Brian]

jazz are cheating...wtf.

[NateNate]

refs working majic!

[Gakatron]

wow refs trying to rig it for Utah... no other way you can explain that sequence of events.

[mw_mw]

apparently you can grab the opponents arm and shoot and u get two free throws... only in Utah.

refs are horrible :mad:

[CountyClerk]

This is why i dont want us to play Utah because they cheat and they have the refs backing them up

[Gakatron]

nice flop Okur... I am glad I am getting the warriors commentators

[ClutchCity3]

JIZZ :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

[tmacfor35]

The Warriors announcers are pretty good in my opinion. They know the SLC homecourt advantage.

[ndnguy85]

utah really knows how to stretch the limit of the refs.

no ref wants to call a foul on every play...i mean they should..but they dont.

[The Brian]

what a play by morrow!

[Gakatron]

massive play by Morrow!

[Rocketball4Life]

MORROW!!!!!! AND 1 BABY!!!!

[BrooksBall]

What a play by Morrow. The refs are at it again. They are buying into the flopping and letting Utah get away with hacking the Warriors.

[Gakatron]

The Warriors announcers are pretty good in my opinion. They know the SLC homecourt advantage.
Yeh its good 'it's a different game in Salt Lake City' lol

[BrooksBall]

The Warriors need to take it to the basket. They've been settling for outside shots for the last several minutes. I'm sure part of it is due to fatigue.

[tmacfor35]

They know exactly what there implying, but there being very vague as to not get into trouble. Great play by Morrow, you can be a Rocket.

[mw_mw]

i hope warriors pull this one out!

[Gakatron]

The Warriors need to take it to the basket. They've been settling for outside shots for the last several minutes. I'm sure part of it is due to fatigue.
I agree but they did a good job of running the clock on that last one

[ClutchCity3]

what the F! :mad: :mad: :mad:

[tsunami]

oh refs suck.

[Bleeding Red]

Watson and Morrow look great. That's a charge! :mad:

[pippendagimp]

wtf was that?

d williams just ran over the defender :confused:

[NateNate]

lol @ announcers

[jVgOwnsYou]

ball dont lie.

[Gakatron]

the warriors commentators have had enough of the cheating haha.

[The Brian]

lol continued cheating...

[TesseracT]

I actually think that was a block but it's nice to see the Warriors announcers seeing the HCA for Utah.

[Gakatron]

Gotta give it to teams who play in SLC... I would be ejected if I was playing against blatant cheating by the opposition and the refs.

[nightwatch]

i dont know who's dirtier--the jizz or the utah refs? :mad:

[Bleeding Red]

And 1???

[BrooksBall]

Turiaf should have had an And1 there.

[NateNate]

JIZZ GO DOWN

[mw_mw]

TURIAF IS A BEAST!

[Gakatron]

omg how was that not a and 1... he shoved him... wow that just proves it

[Rocketball4Life]

I think GS is gonna pull it out. This is nothing short of beautiful.

[NateNate]

Man after that replay something is really going on in SLC. SAD

[tsunami]

the warriors commentators have had enough of the cheating haha.
remember that GS commentators used to be unbiased, like the game w/ us last night. It must be horrible calls to make them crazy.

[BrooksBall]

The league needs to do something about this SLC issue. It's a frickin disgrace.

[didivava]

JIZZ GO DOWN
no foul on ronnie's dunk?

[ndnguy85]

how the hell is that not a foul when turiaf dunked?

wtf are the refs looking at?

my gosh... :mad:

[jVgOwnsYou]

What a bad loss for the jazz. They must want the lakers in round 1.

[shortfuse3]

jazz are falling apart at the seams. and wow can GS announcers be more boring?

[nightwatch]

In your face Jazz fans LOLOL.

[mw_mw]

i dont know who's dirtier--the jizz or the utah refs? :mad:

totally agree!

[gwatson86]

This just made my day so much better. Everything else in the world may be wrong, but this is so, so right.

[abc2007]

I swear I will follow the warriors' games next season! :D

[Bleeding Red]

Warriors can hold on with 1 min. left. This is why jizz s*** away from home. HCA= jizz+ refs

[Gakatron]

jazz are falling apart at the seams. and wow can GS announcers be more boring?
you try being exciting for all 82 games when your team wins only 1 in 4

[Kwame]

omg how was that not a and 1... he shoved him... wow that just proves it

Yeah that was ridiculous! I mean he literally pushed Turiaf with nobody else around and the ref was right there! Wow! The Jazz get so many calls and get away with so much at home that it's an absolute travesty. The only other teams that get anywhere close to this kind of home cooking are the Lakers and Cavs.

[BrooksBall]

If a Warrior breathes on a Jazz >>> foul.

If a Jazz punches a Warrior in the head >>> no foul.

Sadly, that really isn't much of a stretch.

[Gakatron]

Yeah that was ridiculous! I mean he literally pushed Turiaf with nobody else around and the ref was right there! Wow! The Jazz get so many calls and get away with so much at home that it's an absolute travesty. The only other teams that get anywhere close to this kind of home cooking are the Lakers and Cavs.
I just cant understand it as anything other than cheating... there is no way all 3 refs missed it, he shoved him with two hands while in the end, not only was it a foul it was a dirty dangerous one if it threw him off balance.

[Shaud]

Don't forget the importance of that last game. Utah @ Lakers... the Lakers obviously are locked into their position and if Cleveland have secured HC for the playoffs by then they really have nothing to play for....except that if I am the Lakers I would rather not have to go to SLC even with the Jazz sucking and would prefer to play the Mavs, so I wouldn't be surprised if you see the Lakers send out a depleted side and hope the Rockets knock off the Mavs. Thinking a bit ahead I know but a likely event.
Yeah I don't see the Lakers playing their starters that game with the Cavs probably already locking up the best record.

[jVgOwnsYou]

dwill goes out with an abdominal injury.

[tsunami]

D Williams got hurt, funny

[Gakatron]

I just cant understand it as anything other than cheating... there is no way all 3 refs missed it, he shoved him with two hands while in the air, not only was it a foul it was a dirty dangerous one if it threw him off balance.
fixed

[Bleeding Red]

Adding to their insult is Williams injured in garbage time.

[TesseracT]

Thanks God we don't have to put up with another 7 games of these scumbags and refs.

[Shaud]

Uh O D-Will hurt probably will be aight.

[A_3PO]

UH OH! Ab strains can take some time to get over.

[Firebomb525]

Major blow to Utah with the injury to D-Will. Hope he's alright. Amazing player and individual.

[TheBigAristotle]

Utah is done for tonight.

[Gakatron]

Do the warriors have a forum? we should go and say thankyou

[archinkent]

man, watching the last few mins reminds me of the playoffs last year. the biased calls were just disgusting

[Shaud]

Might as well go ahead and pickup C.J. Watson for the final stretch of fantasy basketball.

[nightwatch]

D Williams got hurt, funny

menstrual cramps? must be that time of the month.

[mrdan]

D Williams got hurt, funny

Not funny.

[TheBigAristotle]

Hope Williams is alright long-term though. Short term that doesn't bode well for the playoffs.

[airbulllard]

HELLLLLLLLS YEAH

[BrooksBall]

Stunning upset. Love it.

[Shaud]

What a horrible lost. 7 Warriors players and you lose at home.

[Bleeding Red]

Lol at the Jizz can't even beat Warriors with majority of starters out. 1st round vs. Lakers will be fun for them :p

[airbulllard]

Not funny.

very funny

[LCII]

I love the Warriors and their upsets

[plates300]

props to GS. Only played with 7 players and beat Utah in SLC. So glad Utah lost cuz they were down right dirty with their cheap fouls.

[ndnguy85]

man, watching the last few mins reminds me of the playoffs last year. the biased calls were just disgusting
this is why i say we cant play the jazz.

how can a team win when the refs wont make obvious calls?

[TheRealist137]

yeah the warriors will be suiting up only 8 players and the game is at Utah. There is about a 2% chance the jazz lose.
It never felt SO GOOD to be SO WRONG. HAHA. LOL.

[Go rox!]

Great game, Warriors played with passion, and really taught those dirty jazz a lesson.

[tsunami]

Not funny.
not funny for you maybe, but definitely funny to me. :rolleyes:

[abc2007]

This game reminds me of that the warriors beat the mavs in the 1st round playoffs two years!

[roflmcwaffles]

menstrual cramps? must be that time of the month.

LOL. Man f the Jazz, I wish no long-term health problems on any of them, but Williams being gone for the playoffs would be awesome. I hate the Jazz and their cheating.

Fing you cannot tell me that a team that is 1-16 vs. +0.500 west teams and like 2-30 vs. all +0.500 on the road can all of sudden .800++ vs. them at home without some cheating. It is straight BS.

[Evil Empire]

great win for Warriors!

God Clippers are horrible

[A_3PO]

The run at the end of the 2nd quarter by the Blazers was something. Rudy!

If the Jazz end up #8, I want them to push the Lakers as hard as possible. They need Deron Williams to do that.

[archinkent]

wow, last i saw clippers were down 5.

[ibm]

funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny funny

funny as hell, hahahaha :D :D :D :D :D :D

[wizkid83]

Not funny.


Agreed, it's not funny. We Rox fans are better that. However, it is Ironic like an old man turned ninety-eight who won the lottery and died the next day.

[Kwame]

Clips on the comeback trail...down only 8 now.

[YourSecretLover]

clippers coming back

baron davis making a difference

[BrooksBall]

You guys remember Boozer guaranteeing the 2nd seed about a month ago?

Or was it the 3rd seed?

Either way >>> Boozer Fail.

[bratna8]

Clips down by 4 10 mins. remaining.

[rawool]

2 point game!

[bratna8]

2 point game......8:41 left :D

[changwiz]

OMG,clipper back?What a dramatic night

[WhoMikeJames]

GO CLIPS, wow! Gordon is a beast...

[jVgOwnsYou]

cmon clip joints!

[nightwatch]

go clips!

if you win this one I will never call you the toe nail clippers again!

[QdoubleA]

great you guys jinxed them and are causing the Blazers to come back... GREAT

they suck again!

Game Over. Nice try, Clippies.

[MacLovin]

Ever turn on a game and wonder "how was this so close before I started watching?"

[rawool]

Clips just chucking up shots... Game is about over now.

[TForThree]

What a bunch of choking artists, can't make a single basket when it really matters. The Blazers can easily pass us by winning all the remaining games.

14-0 run. Same old Clips.

[BrooksBall]

Clips should've left their 2nd unit in.

[MacLovin]

On a side note, these Clippers announcers sound a bit harsh

*Clippers take the lead*
"And the Clippers lead for the first time in...forever!"

*Kaman misses a point blank shot*
"He misses more three footers than anyone I have ever seen."

While the second one may be true, who says that?

Their team sucks. It's understandable.

Plus, listen to our own announcers. How many times have they criticized Yao for not finishing strong around the basket or Scola not playing defense or Artest not passing the ball or...

"Jason Thompson is working Scola over."

"How does a 7'6 guy shoot a layup there!"

"Artest trying to go 1-on-5 again."

"Scola has only used his left hand twice all season."

[Uprising]

I have to say, after watching our last game with the Warrior announcers, I have some respect for those guys.

They were good.

You guys remember Boozer guaranteeing the 2nd seed about a month ago?

Or was it the 3rd seed?

Either way >>> Boozer Fail.

He also guaranteed that the Jazz would sweep the Rockets last year. Ooops. The Jazz could be facing the defending Western Conference champions in the 1st round, without homecourt advantage. A team that blasted them last year. Any predictions Booz?
