The question still remains can jazz do this in LA.

[TheMulletMutilator]

Jazz have proved over and over this year they can win on the road. This game is not luck i will tell you that. I am not saying the jazz will win the lakers come playoff time but it wouldn't surprise me at all if they do. This teams is more built to play against a team like the lakers.

I think we have proven that we can beat good teams on the road. That still doesn't mean we can beat the Lakers on the road. It will be an interesting and good matchup.

I think the jazz are able to defend Gasol better one on one. Kobe seems a little less mobile right now, so even though he's scoring like Jordan, he's at least not breaking the Jazz down. Not sure how Kobe will be in the playoffs.

The other question is how well Fisher and Blake will shoot the ball. Sloan will give up the deep jumpers. It just depends on whether the Lakers will hit them.

Fisher seems to light the Jazz up usually and then I catch glimpses of other Laker games when my family from LA are in town and he is terrible. Needless to say, those 2 guys aren't always going to look terrible behind the 3 point line but tonight they were.

Well said. The Jazz are still a work in progress. Jefferson can still get better as he gets more comfortable with the offense. Maybe Okur/Jefferson gives us better size to match up with LA. It was a good win after a terrible first quarter. What is it about this team? Maybe Sloan should set the clocks ahead. The starters need to wake up 1/2 hour earlier each game.

I rarely give someone negative rep, but I tempted to with dutchjazzer. Jeebus H. Gripe! The Jazz could have/should have folded. Down 19 to the best team in the league. Not playing very well. But they fought back. No, the Jazz aren't as good as the Lakers. LA is missing Bynum, Jazz are missing Okur. Call the injury situation a wash. But Utah didn't quit. And they pulled out a win. Let's all be happy tonight.

well sure i enjoyed the win. but enjoyment is temproary unless the win is a championship game. every seaosn jazz bea FAKERS in SLC but everytime we go to to Stapless its the most horrible game to watch. so i am still wondering

i prefer rather kobe breaking us down.
remembering the days when he shot the ball a gazzilian times scoring 40 and 50 points but still jazz winnnign the game.

yeah they can win on the road i am impressed with 6-2, with wins comming against orlando, hawks and heat although hawks and heat arent *** good as they could be so far so looking at their record im a bit less impressed with those win. dont get me wrong im still impressed with the come from behind victory but whart i mean is everyone expected the heat to go 60-12. there was even a watch for that on espn but now that i look at the heats record it sint that impressive.
with what i am impressed is back 2 back wins finally getting those.

Talk about Dutchie DOWNER.

Fixed.

I'm just thrilled that we finally have a post up player that can get any shot off against LA's bigs whenever he wants to and doesn't have to worry about altering his shot.

WTF is wrong with some of you? The Jazz looked great against the Lakers. Big Al Played Pau better than Boozer ever could have. Raja was better than any two against Kobe we have had in years. Our new additions shined last night and that is what we should be excited for. We match up better plain and simple.

On pace for 58 wins.

Great win but we got very lucky that the Lakers were missing wide open 3's. That won't happen many nights and certainly not in LA. So if we are to win one in LA it will take a better game than last night.
