    It will be a tough series for the Lakers. But hitting an open jumper is the same against anyone and the Lakers are doing it right now. If they struggle with open shots against the Jazz it will be interesting to see how hurried and frustrated they get and whether or not they rush shots.

    Of course each still need to win some games and the Lakers did win 3 out of 4 against the Jazz, and the only game with Gasol they won...in Utah. Not that really means a whole lot now.

    It will be a tough series and BTW the Jazz were dealing with nagging injuries for 2 of those losses. I just think the series will play into the Jazz's favor because of how they are aggressive, slow down the pace, force you to throw up early shots, and frustrate the hell out of top players.

    Yes I do like stats, but this one won't pan out for 76ers fans.

    Look for Detroit to win a very hard fought game 3 in Philly to take back the home court advantage.

    Detroit wins in either 6 or 7 (most likely 7).

    This Cleveland-Washington series is getting very interesting, they just need to play ball and stop the antics.

    Really? The tickets say for Round 2 Semi Finals, Game A and B at the Amway Arena. Maybe they mean A and b for home games? I don't know but either way I am excited! I am sure I can figure out which games it is for when it gets here.

    Well, it says that because, if they play Detroit, the home games will be 3 and 4 for Orlando, but if they play philly, game 1 and 2, will be the home games for Orlando.
    Should be good basketball.
