Jazz will win in 6, they hav far more athleticism and post players then Mavs, including a group of all-stars that are coached by Sloan who is a guru like Phil Jackson. Ak47 will take care to rim while on offense Deron williams(a true PG unlike what dallas has) will breakdown that dfense

The Jazz match up good with the Warriors. But I like both teams. I hate California teams though. So I am tempted to go wit Jazz. But may the best team win.

Agree with most of what you said. But thats not why Williams will help the Jazz. He is strong and mite be able to slow Davis somewhat. If he proves not to be strong enough then this could be over quick. And Davis is a good defender, he can hold Williams. So best way for Jazz to win is for Williams to hold Davis, remains to be seen.

I can't make a prediction. Who knows what's going to happen with GS playing all loosey goosey, and some of the Jazz like AK 47 will just disappear on you sometimes.
And would GS getting swept really make any of you feel better? i think in a way that would make it worse.

GS getting swept would make me feel better in some ways. But GS winning the championship would make me feel better in others.
Really, I don't care. If the Mavs aren't playing I could really give a damn who wins.

One thing I do like about the Jazz, Is Mehmet Okur. The dude just makes me giggle. He looks like he was sitting his ass on a couch for about a month and never shaved or took a shower, and then got up to go play a basketball game.

Not a fan of Sloan. Can't stand GS. Unfortunately, one team must win. Oh well... go Jazz

My goodness. Now the Dubs are going to get something out of Harrington, too? Wow.
Nellie already forcing the play by sending Richardson in on Boozer. This is going to be fun to watch!

Bad news for the Jazz, Harrington is on fire!

Warriors have recovered nicely from their early deficit. Pretty impressive.

35-37 at then end of the first quarter? I'd say this pace favors the Warriors.

Boy, I reckon.
My favorite moment of the half? The commentator noting that the home crowd is not used to this style of ball and is really loving it.
True, true.

I really didn't think the Warriors could continue their high level of play. I think I may have been wrong.

I liked the comment about how unlike Dirk, Boozer is used to seeing the double team.

AK is so streaky though. I watched the whole Houston series, sometimes he shows up, sometimes he doesn't. He looks damned good tonight so far

As hard as it is to play in Utah, I don't think this crowd compares to what the Mavs dealt with (and the Jazz will soon deal with) in Oakland. If the Warriors win one of the games in Salt Lake, they should have no problem winning three at home and moving on to the WCF - and if GS does win this series, we'll have a hell of an interesting match-up on our hands, regardless of who wins the Suns-Spurs series.

He's played out of position all season... If he were back at the 4, we'd see the AK47 that was taking the league by storm.. but at the three, he's forced outside entirely too much offensively.. he's out of his element.

Good point. I was thinking earlier of how out of hand this game would already be if it were at the Oracle. AK would already be crying!

I'm predicting a Baron 3 from beyond half-court to end the half. Just seems appropriate.
