Lakers Game is upon us!


Tomorrow is the Jazz vs Lakers Game, as we all know. I for one have gotten more excited than any game all season.
To get you guys as excited as I am:

Key points:

The Point Guards:

Jamaal Tinsley
Steve Nash
I'm sorry Jazz nation but there is no question here, Nash will pass, score, drive, and run over the Old Jamaal.

The Shooting Guards:

Gordon Hayward, Randy Foye, Alec Burks
Kobe Bryant
While the Jazz might be able to score from the three with Foye and Hayward, while Burks will drive, I can't see us beating Kobe up, but we might just be able to play good d on Kobe. They have in the past 4 games.

The Small Forwards:

Marvin Williams, Demarre Carroll
Metta World Peace, Antwan Jameson
This is the position of want it, or lose it, whoever plays more like they want it will win the game, and I am excited to see these match-ups.

The Power Forward:

Paul Millsap, Derrick Favors
Pau Gasol
While Pau CAN play like a beast, Paul and Derrick easily win this matchup, Favors is too rough for Pau to even get the ball, and Millsap will beat him every offensive possession and Pau will be extremly run over by the end of this game.

The Centers:

Al Jefferson, Enes Kanter
Dwight Howard, Jordan Hill
Al Jefferson vs Dwight Howard in the low post [On the Jazz's end] will be very fun to watch. Al Jefferson on Offense is probably the best in the league while Dwight is probably the best Center on Defense. Enes Kanter should dominate Jordan Hill anywhere on the court.

The Starters:

Jazz: 7 Lakers: 9

The Bench

Jazz: 10 Lakers: 6


Overall I think our bench will power through and win us the game in a tight match, that Kobe keeps alive for the Lakers. But the Lakers will prevail in the final minutes to lose a close one and get swept in the season series, which would be the first time in Utah Jazz history, and make our winning streak against LA 5 straight.
