Glassman, does the fact that the Lakers can't win on the road against the Jazz mean they can't win it all against tougher teams ahead?

Not addressed to me, but I'll take a stab if I may. If you are being serious, then no, because the Jazz are the best home team in the league. They will have home court throughout the West and every series they play will feature easier (but not easy) road games.

If you are trying to draw parallels between the Lakers road woes and those of the Celtics, I would argue that Boston's are most troublesome because they have not won at all on the road, including games in Atlanta. The Nuggets may be a #8 seed, but they still won 50 games. They also had the 6th best home record, and the Lakers won both in Denver.

No it doesn't.  Is this because of what I said in the Celtics thread?  I meant what I said in that thread.  Now to address the fact of not winning in Utah.  Utah had the best home record during the regular season  it was expected for the Lakers to lose there.  Now as far as the Celtics go, they had the best road record in the league, and have yet to win a road game when it matters the most, in the playoffs.  I'm not changing my opinion on the Celtics, until they win a road game in the playoffs, I don't think they'll go far.  BTW, the Lakers took care of business in the first round, and we won on the road twice against the 6th best home team in the league.

Wait I think you have made a mistake! I just saw something that said the Jazz tied the series 2-2. So you might want to change what you said before. I don't want you to embarrass yourself more than you already have. Your welcome.

Ha ha Glassman

 

Your silly! I seriously hope you are embarassed. And why do Laker Fans give Utah no chance at all? Utah is one of the most balanced teams in the NBA, 3 former/current All-Stars in Boozer, Kirilenko, and Okur and the 4th is DWill. They are a dam good team and deserve some respect.

Glassman

That was why I asked. 

The Celts deserve to be picked on.  I imagine is they win tomorrow, this goes away.

Later

Moral of the story, NEVER make prediction threads until the game actually starts.

Anne baby - I admire you for calling the game before hand, but now is the time to take your medicine.   Where are you?  You have to take your lumps.  Your team played good, but lost.  Maybe that means they have a better chance when they come back for game 6.
