Jazz Lakers game 4 *Spoiler*

What records are you speaking of?

People talk a lot about his 'accomplishments'

Where's the beef?

Playtime, some fact time. Kobe doesn't make the top ten players all time in my opinion. So calling him the greatest shows nothing but your age or IQ.

I feel for Ronnie Brewer. He is the only guy capable of staying with Bryant, yet in offence i watched Kobe stand still, flat footed, 10ft off Ronnie daring him to shoot.

Ronnie can't shoot (or at least- not under the pressure of play-offs).

This is awful for Utah coz it means Bryant never gets tired because he is only working one half of the game!

Plus he is a threat to get steals and deflections whenever the jazz drive the paint.

Do Utah wave the flag and start Miles and Koufos next game?

Okur should be put on mothballs and AK is more value off the bench.

Two things from this game that indicate a 'must change' for the jazz.

1- No team will win with a Boozer/Okur frontcourt.
Last year i called for Boozer to be the one to go, but now it is clear to me that with a decent C by his side he would be dominant.

Looks like Okurs days in Utah are numbered.

2- The jazz have a huge hole on the wing. They are desperate for a player to play alongside Brewer and Miles is not the answer. Did someone say Raja Bell???

the first week of trials were held sunday and rumours flying around that both the U18 & U20 age groups are not looking very deep at all.

U18 - 3 returnin div 1's, 2 div 2's, 1 div 3

U20 - 3 current U18 div 1's leaving to play socially leaving a max of 3 goin up to 20s, 4 U18 div 2's playing on, 2 under 20 div 2's returnin, the numbers of U20 div 3's returnin are up in the air + the returnin aba/U20 div 1 players

certainly not the plethora of players the club would be looking to form its div 1/2 squads from to stay near the top of the ladder next season...

are we seeing the start of a lean patch for woodville in the up coming years

what are your thoughts, also how are the other clubs shaping up for next season?

Well if you ever needed any proof for not posting opinions after the first quarter of a game, bookmark this thread.

Jazz down 11 near end of the first half.

Jazz bench playing well, Brewer and AK can't shoot and shouldn't be on the floor at the same time (unless AK is playing pf).

Okur should not be out there. Don't play injured players- and sure as hell don't start em if you do!

Long from over, would like to see Harp get some more burn...

If jazz get back and win this game- massive. Its clearly the game that LA have picked to be the one they go all out to win. Kobe is going to play hard all game and if the jazz can still win it... again...massive.
