The Lakers are returning home after 2 losses at Utah. They had the chance to win at game 4, but they were simply not good enough both at offense and at defense. They had 20 field goals more than Utah and yet they couldn't score more points than them. They, also had 15/26 free throws, while Bryant was struggling with 13/33 field goals and 1/9 3pointers, but he was playing with a sore back that didn't allow him to walk, not run, well. Kobe will play today, but no one knows his condition.

The Jazz had chances to end games 3 and 4, much more earlier, but at the final 3-4 minutes of the last quarter, they weren't careful and that gave the Lakers the chance to claim the game, but, hopefully for Utah, they couldn't make it. Tonight things will be difficult for Utah, as Lakers win easily at Staples Center and usually the have big leads from halftime.

So, I'll take that bet tonight, because Lakers are very strong at 2nd quarters, while Utah is strong at 2nd halftimes, when playing away. So Lakers for the 5-point lead at halftime.
