Preview - Utah Jazz @ Boston Celtics - 14 March 2008 -
Basketball John
First off, I haven’t had a TBLIATWIATNBAIATU in a while because of the aforementioned real life, I didn’t want to try to play catch-up on old stuff, and because there hasn’t been too many interesting things.
So maybe this one will make up for it. Ladies (Danielle is the only lady I know of though that reads BBJ) and gentlemen, put your hands together for Lil’ Jon. That’s right, Lil’ Jon is coming to the SLC. First, shouldn’t it be Litl’ Jon?
What does this have to do with the Jazz? Well, Deron’s hosting a birthday party for CJ and Brewer. Lil’ Ron is already 21 but it looks like Lil’ Mil is turning 21 on the 18th. So he’ll legally be able to drink. So get your tickets now for Saturday, March 22. I’d love to go and get some pics. Danielle, I’d sponsor a trip for you if we got a full report. But who knows what might happen? If you go, make sure you’re up on your fort building skills and have your aliases ready. And we all know about Jazz parties. I hope they’re flying Dee in for the weekend.
So on to tonight’s game against the Cs. Boston is riding a 10 game winning wave. And percentage-wise, the Garden is just as tough for visitors to win at as it is for them to win at the ESA. And as everyone knows, the last loss at the ESA for the Jazz came at the hands of these same Celts.
So now it’s time for a little payback. Forget revenge though. That would be the icing on CJ’s cake next week. The Jazz need this win in the worst way. We need home-court in at least the first round and it doesn’t matter if the win comes against the Cs or the Riverton Jr. Jazz (if it counted). Any more losses would do some pretty sever damage to our hopes of overtaking one of the teams ahead of us.
Problem is that we’ve come off two poor games against the BucknBulls. Sure, we won at Milwaukee, but unless they play like they did in the first quarter for four quarters tonight, we might not have a chance.
Deron should dominate against Rondo and Sam I Am. But will Booze, Millsap, and Okur be able to contain KG, Big Baby, and others? That’s the key.
My prediction is that we’re blown out or win by ten. It’s all or nothing for this game.

It’s pretty funny that I’m like 2 months older than CJ. I could totally go, but I’m protesting because KK’s bday is on Monday, and he is no where on Birthday Boy list. If that changes, let me know and I’m so there. It’s probably because he is a good boy and doesn’t go out to night clubs and such. Hopefully tonight’s game is good. I can’t watch it, so ya’ll should put highlights up later tonight!!
