Kerr being out and it is probably Klay’s fault. Kerr probably caught Klay’s cold. Everything is Klay’s fault

Tough game considering half the coaching staff and front office is on their way home from Deki's funeral in Belgrade. Not to mention its in the city the tragedy took place.

I'd expect Kenny to use the normal Kerr gameplan and rotations for the most part.

Kenny Atkinson is in my doghouse because our defense underperformed. With Ron Adams being allegedly semi-retired and Mike Brown being in Sacramento and Kerr always being considered an offensive coach Atkinson was presumably in charge of the defense. 2022 defense was so much better.

Good luck Atkinson. I will blame Atkinson instead of Klay if we lose.

Jazz are 4 and 4 in their last 8
Jazz are 6 and 2 in their last 8 home games.

Our C game is not going to get the job done.
We are going to have to play well to win this game.

He went to deki’s memorial in Serbia. But continue to protect Klay like he’s a child.

I would not blame this team at all if they played flat considering what happened the last time they were in Utah. Plus, it's the day of the funeral. Alot of emotions tonight.

Utah's front line is pretty tall.

Draymond getting neutralized by the refs. Not even halfway through the first quarter.

Offensively too with size. Maybe he's the best athlete on the floor but he has to recognize this is the NBA and there are guys in the 99th percentile with him who can get to his shot if he's being too casual or trying to hotdog a one-hand jam in traffic when 2 would have probably got the ball in the hole.

Wiggins playing some excellent defense. Lauri is completely locked up.

Lauri is seeming uncoordinated.
