Most talented team ever. Best coach ever. Best FO ever. New owners who seem willing to spend real money. What isn’t to love and be excited about.

Having Rudy Gobert makes me so happy.

I like those "Statement Shadow Gray" kits better than I thought initially.

What a stupid offensive foul by Towns. Dude needs to just play basketball, it's just goofy.

Geez, there goes Towns with that kick out again!? He's got total head games going on with that.

Jaylen Nowell + Rudy Gobert pick-and-roll action is as excellent as I expected it to be.

Holy cow man. Gobert is really one of those players that you know is great, but you really appreciate all the things he does to wreck the game when he's playing for your team.

Good first quarter outside of Towns. I really worry about the ref stuff, was hoping he would clean it up this year but it seems to get worse instead of better, that's a battle you will not win, we do not need another season of him vs the refs or we are scrwed.

Same, I thought they were very boring at first, they are ok. Still not my favorite but I don't think they are terrible.

Dlo has zero defensive awareness

I love Nowell, he is going to be a huge piece this year.

Really a Jazz fan, but cheering for y'all this season.

I wasn't certain when y'all were talking about Nowell coming into the season, but he's looked great to start the season, I'm impressed, he looks ready to go as the 3rd guard.

Still not sold on Prince.

Towns has improved his passing big time. Simple plays make the game look easy.

D'Angelo Russell is fully in-control of the game's pace, tonight. Excellent play on both ends, thus far.

Isn't it great when you love a guy from the beginning, go through the tough times and then see him start to become what you thought he could be?

There were a number of us here that liked him from day 1.

He deserves the credit. Just as long as he doesn't have to play hero ball and throw up 3's all night when they aren't going in.

When it's working, his 3 pt shot is a thing of beauty.

Kessler looking pretty awesome.

Man, KAT is such a dumbass

Kessler is impressive.

Was a big fan of Walker Kessler in college, really good pickup for Utah.
