^^ yeah but utah's core have already proved them selves as a "unit" in the playoffs by making it to the west finals last year. lakers core havent proved shit in the playoffs yet. Utah's core has proved it can play "together" on the big stage and are also a year older and wiser. Itl be interesting to see how the lakers young bench does in the playoffs, i gurantee vujavic and farmer wont shoot at the same clip as they did in the regular season. plus ronnie brewer is a dope defender at the 2 so fuck what yall are saying about utah defensive frailties, but even if brewer was a good defender he aint stopping kobe i give you guys that.

but the fact is as a unit utah are a good defensive team and are a legit tought-out in the playoffs especially in  a seven game series. I guess we get to see the much hyped (on this forum) gasol V boozer debate up close tho which should be dope.

yeah, when teams move they should change their name to something that matches the city or state their in. WTF does Utah have to do with Jazz? lol. Like people from all over the country go to Utah to hear good Jazz lol.

I know the whole thing with Toronto being named "Raptors" had to do with the first "Jurassic Park" movie coming out at the same time.  There was tons of hype around that movie and thats how they decided to go with "Raptors" I guess.  I think the other one that came close was the Toronto Towers, which makes more sense to me since the CN Tower sits right beside the ACC and Rogers Centre (Skydome).
