Lakers @ Jazz, November 3, 2004 | The new-look Lakers pay a visit to Utah for their second game of the season after beating the Nuggets in their home opener. The Lakers were clearly not ready to play in this game, as evidenced by a 28 point first half. After scoring just 11 points and shooting 1-7 from the floor in the first half, Kobe looked to be more aggressive in the second half and dropped 27 points (17 in the 3rd) on 14 shots. Despite 38 points and 20 free throw attempts by Kobe, the Lakers were handled easily by the Jazz 78-104, dropping to 1-1 on the season.
