The Jazz, by all reason, should not have been competitive in this game. Yet somehow they were, coming back against the Lakers to force overtime before finally succumbing. TakeNote
“Kelly’s three... that was awesome,” Jazz coach Will Hardy said. “We’re lucky the backboard was there.”
In the end, everyone got what they wanted: the Lakers got the win that they were fighting for, to maintain some sort of respectable playoff position. The Jazz got their loss, to stay in 9th in the tank race. As James cut backdoor for the potential game-winning layup, Jones met him at the rim, jumped vertically, and forced the miss.
Next year, he has a player option for $2.5 million. This is where his agent will have to do some hardcore agenting, to figure out whether or not he has enough NBA interest to ensure he’ll definitely get an NBA contract next year. Generally, I’d say a Laker castoff should just pick up the option, but I think he’s played well in a Jazz uniform, and another team might jump at, say, a two-year minimum deal.
