Rest and recovery

By Elliott Teaford on May 5, 2010 4:44 PM | | Comments (1) |

The Lakers looked slow and injured and unable to keep up with the Oklahoma City Thunder in a 21-point loss in Game 4 of their first-round playoff series. After two days of rest, the Lakers looked rejuvenated while hammering the Thunder in Game 5. After two more days of rest, the Lakers eliminated the Okies in Game 6. They only had a day to prepare for Game 1 of their second-round series with the Utah Jazz, but they won. They got only a day to get ready for Game 2, but won that one, too. Now they have three days to rest and recover for Game 3 on Saturday in Utah. Think they'll be ready to play Saturday?

I expect a good performance.

Can you confirm that because it's in Utah that they are not able to play Friday-Sunday because of the religious accomodation?
