Game 66: Utah Jazz (28-37) vs Atlanta Hawks (29-36)

Strange how the two teams have virtually the same record while the Jazz are actively tanking and were projected to be bad even before the season, while the Hawks are actually trying to win.

Locke said Hendricks had a full practice and he's listed as GTD so maybe he'll see some action.

Hawks have a lot of "good" players, but suck as a team....... I guess Snyder can't work miracles after all......

He could if players would be not human beings but proper cogs for his inventions. So its all players fault.

Seriously, I wonder how DM, Rudy and Conley + Sexton etc would play under Hardy

Probably pretty close to how they played under Snyder, sans Sexton....... Nice win by the Jazz, btw........

Of course everything is probable, the only difference is probability value.

Any win is good now. But there was some defense and I really like Keyonte recently. I think (and hope) that by attitude he is way better than DM.

I love how Keyonte gets to the rim lately, and he either finishes or gets fouled...... It's huge that he's doing it his rookie year.......

The managed to lose to a team who started 3 rookies and other than Sexton and Collins played a second-year guy off the bench in Kessler and a bunch of end of the bench and d-league players. They can't excuse this loss on not having Young and Bey, and I think they really need to blow it up.

Good game from almost everyone, and it was nice to see Juzang and Potter playing well and having an impact. Maybe Juzang can find a role in the league.

Good! That is new Jazz! There going be a lot of records like that. I fully expect most second round picks and low first round accumulated through trades. Lest free agents of quality signed, pretty probable. Most consecutive years without play off - not soon, but easily. There are could be nice surprises of that kind too. A lot of suspense and excitement!
