Utah Jazz – Los Angeles Lakers, match N3
Published on 23 April, 2009 | Leave a comment from S Georgiev
After the two convincing wins in the 2 previous matches in the series, LA Lakers come out for another one in this match which will be the crucial one. And in my opinion there is a high possibility for them to take it.
Utah continued to play as poor, as they did it in the last stage of the regular season and absolutely regularly they lost the first 2 matches. The team totally changed their performance, and after one amazing streak of 12 consecutive wins (and 15 wins in 16 matches) they started to play unconvincing and right now the team is in row of 3 straight losses (all of them are against the Lakers, as they played against team in the last regular season’s game) and only 2 wins in 11 games. It’s highly possible for Mehmet Okur to miss tonight’s game which will be a big blow for them and I don’t see how the Jazz could beat LA even in front of their own fans.
Los Angeles started in a terrific way the trip to the NBA Finals with the two wins against Utah and undoubtedly they will want to finish the series to 0, so they would have time for a rest before the Western Conference’s Semi-finals. In the previous season they won the first round against Denver 4:0 and why they can’t do it again? Kobe Bryant is highly motivated to win the title this year (as he couln’t make it last year) and to shut the mouth of Shaquille O’Neal who said some time ago that Kobe could not win the title without him. And with all these players around him and the great coach in the face of Phil Jackson this is so possible to happen. But for this, they have to win all series with as minimum as possible played games. Definitely, the Lakers are the better team and with this so low spread offered by the bookies one bet for them is must take. Moreover, in the last 17 meeting between the two teams, LA are 11-5-1 ATS.
Pick: Los Angeles Lakers (-1.5) @1.90 in bet365.
