It's a pity that the NBA can't remove the franchise from UTAH. That should be an option. At the very least, the NBA should make Jazz fans aware that it's being considered.
I CANNOT wait until this Lakers/Jazz series goes back to Salt Lake. Does anyone remember the last regular season game between the Lakers & Jazz. It was in Utah. Kobe was PISSED at the crowd at what they did to Derek Fisher. I've never seen a player be so mad at the Utah crowd before. He pumped his chest after a dunk. Jazz fans threw debris on the court. Kobe screamed and called them motherf'ers and slammed the ball to the ground after the Lakers won the game. <object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/UTbOo-KLKSk&hl=en"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/UTbOo-KLKSk&hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object> Go to 5:50 to the end.
I hope McGrady does that next season and makes every game personal. Remember the Alamo! Remember the Tooth!
For all you guys giving Fisher crap for not taking a year off, how many NBA players come back after a non-injury layoff like that? Latrell Sprewell never made it back. It's not like contracts in the NBA are handed out like candy. Hard to fault the guy for feeding his family, especially after leaving so much money on the table in Utah.
