Match preview: Utah Jazz - Los Angeles Lakers 2010-05-09 (NBA)

Bringing energy to EnergySolutions Arena

The Jazz are playing against the Lakers for the third straight year in the Western Conference playoffs and have found themselves in a familiar situation. They are down 0-2 in this series and these next two home games will be crucial for Jerry Sloan`s team. They have to win both of them if they want to knock out the defending champions. The good thing is that the Jazz managed to stay close in both previous matches and if they manage to bring that type of energy to EnergySolutions Arena they have a nice chance of getting a win. bet now

Getting on the road

The Lakers haven`t really showed nothing special throughout the playoffs and it looks like they`re playing with as much energy as they need to in order to get wins. While Game 3 is much more critical for the Jazz, the Lakers will probably look to avoid a repeat of the first round, when they led Oklahoma City 2-0 before the Thunder tied it with two home wins. The Lakers managed to win that series in six games, but they made it longer than most expected. Phil Jackson`s team should be able to make this one a close contest. online betting

Trying to get a home win

Although the Jazz have been impressive at home it won`t be easy, as the Los Angeles hasn`t gone winless in Utah since the 2004-05 season and the Lakers added a playoff win in Utah each of the last two years. Neither team played too good on defensive end in both games. The Lakers didn`t really need to play that good on defense, as they were getting good looks on the offensive end and the Jazz have been struggling in the opening quarters, due to the fact the Lakers have a size advantage. Utah has shown that they`re playing up-tempo basketball, especially at home and they`ll definitely be pushing the ball up the court at any given chance. I expect the Jazz to come out strong and be more aggressive. There should be plenty of scoring. bet online
