You HATE the Lakers too much, man.naw. lol. Honestly, the Jazz are the scariest team in the West to me. I dont THINK they are the best....but they are scary. Nobody is expecting shit from them (except Sir Charles lol). Theyre completely overlooked, but they are good. You guys have some defensive issues, and I think a great point guard would expose them. I dont see a Lakers/ Celtics finals this year...but next year it wouldnt surprise me.

You say we have defensive issues, but Utah is still no better than us defensively. ESPECIALLY in the post, where we like to do most of our damage.

ESPECIALLY in the post, where we like to do most of our damage.they arent great either. but the opposing teams point guard consistently getting into the paint sounds more deadly. And what do you mean "arent on the level of a team like the Lakers"? lol. Theres 3 games seperating the top 6 teams. I would say they are all pretty much on the same level right now.
Utah doesn't match well with us AT ALL .. they're very weak when it comes to inside D and their biggest pb is to defend the SG position ... Deron is an excellent PG but is more physical than fast .. Fish will have less pb against Williams than against Paul or Parker ..

The Lakers, regardless of their seeding...or if they even make the playoffs...are always on a higher level than everyone else. The last few years when they didn't make it out of the first round or weren't making the playoffs he always had these far out ideas that they were a few plays away from winning it all. But please, don't question his opinions...they seem to be the only ones that matter.
