A high scoring, fun, explosion, awesomeness, and too much Luca for anyone to handle tonight.

Jazz fall to Lakers 143, 135, without loud remarking the jazz play the Lakers to the wire.

We're talking about it next on postcast.

David Locke along with Ron Boone, and that was something, Ron. That was a fun game. Jazz for the first time all year, lost the game. They led going to the fourth quarter. There's some things you can nitpick. I thought they let go of the rope that Keontte kind of lost his bearings for a few minutes in there where he tried to go one-on-one. But that was just a high-paced, fun game. Jazz played incredible offense,

not 60% for much of the night.

Missed too many free throws.

You can harp on that.

But this was an impressive fun basketball game.

The fans got a chance to see some great basketball.

I mean, great player basketball,

meaning Luca and LeBron, Kiante,

jazz hanging in there, for the most part, getting the type of shots and everything that they

wanted in that first half, and they were making them, you know, but it was the free throws that

really kept the basketball game close, I thought, in that first half. Let's go to the jazz offense because the Lakers come in. The last 10 games are 28th in the league defensively. They allowed a 100 defensive rating of 125 or more, 122 or more than 7 their last nine. They allow 125 again tonight. So, I mean, that's now eight of their last 10 games. They have allowed a disastrous defensive rating they're still winning games what did the

jazz do so well offensively to take advantage of the lakers defensive problems well there's a couple

of players on their team that's not very good defensive players lucos might be one of them you put

him in pick and roll and you got now you got one-on-one basketball and you're you as long as you're making him

play defense and then you have to and they're trying to help out on him we had some pretty good

looks our three-point shooting in that first half was off the charts i mean obviously the free

throws and and it was in particular probably nerkey she's the only one that was not making a free to.

And Ace missed a couple there as well.

But this could have been, if the Jazz would have made free throws, this could have probably been a huge advantage for the Jazz after that.
