If the Utah Jazz are going to the NBA Playoffs this season then they need a little luck, and above anything else they need to defeat the Los Angeles Lakers tonight. Utah is limping to the finish-line having had to endure losses to morale (dropping that game at home to the Los Angeles Clippers, getting beat at home by the Dallas Mavericks) and losses to injury again (Rudy Gobert is again out, Gordon Hayward and Derrick Favors are playing hurt, and Alec Burks is once again questionable).
