P&G Game 5: vs. Utah Jazz


Just when we thought that the Lakers will have things going after a 29-point victory against the Pistons, they fell short against the Jazz on their second road game of the season, 95-86. Kobe Bryant's supersquad did not even take a slim lead against Utah, performing awfully on both sides of the floor.

Yay of the Game:

12 rebounds did reserve C Jordan Hill haul in this game, 7 of which were on the offensive end. The Lakers got 48 boards compared to Utah's 37 (15 against 9 on the O). With  everything not going too well for the Lakers, at least they are able to grab those boards; however, what are they if all of them cannot convert?

Nay of the Game:

7 of 17 went Kobe Bryant from the field, with none of his four treys swished. After a "playmaking" performance against Detroit, the Black Mamba took the reins and tried to bring his team back into the game to no avail. Although he shot had 15 of 17 shots from the charity stripe, they were not enough as the Jazz have countered every attempt the Lakers had to bring the game closer.

Play of the Game:

At abot 1:20, the Lakers kept on crashing the boards until Superman gets an and-1.


The Lakers Are Now At:

1-4 (5th Pacific, 15th West). The Lakers will face the Golden State Warriors next, and perhaps we should replace the question: "How many losses will the Lakers tally?" with "How many losses will the Lakers tally before they decide to #FireMikeBrown ?"
