Game 37: Utah Jazz (9-27) @ Phoenix Suns (17-19) l Saturday l 3:00pm l AZFamily

Are we watching the same game? Those guys are nothing special compared to other young players in the league.

Markannen of course is a very good player but Kessler and Filipowski? We are taking advantage of them on defense and on offense they are limited players (Kessler is dunk or nothing).

Yes, we are watching the same game. And their output or play in one game is a pretty small sample size from which to judge and basically call them subpar. They both have something we lack and that's size.

And it doesn't really matter how they score so long as they do. Kessler and Filipowski also play defense, though they're getting worked a little bit today by quicker guys. And Ighodoro is extremely limited as far as shot selection: He either throws up a floater or doesn't really shoot at all. His jumper shooting form is some of the worst I've ever seen.

Filipowski averages 5.8 ppg shooting 29% from 3 so I am not impreesed at all. He is BAD at defense, plain and simple.

Kessler very good shot blocker but like Is said superlimited on offense, it’s not a secret.

Filipowski is also a rookie, so there's that. Kessler is a defender. We need that. He's basically a younger but better defending Plumlee. Which would you rather have between those two?

Allen with 3 consecutive triples and we are up 12.

We got this.

[Saberestar]

Solid game. It wasn't a blowout but we had a decent advantage in the last few minutes.

We got some points from Plumlee and Oso, that's always a nice addition. Dunn again with double figures, 10 points.

Allen is n great shape now. Sniper.

Book 34 and KD 25 with good efficiency. Tomorrow we need the W too.

Great shooting game from Book again. Did he tie his 3 pts made in a game record? Or was it more than 6 that he finally broke a while back?

Chill and laid back is not what we need and we know he can be an **** in the locker room when he wants to be.

The nonchalant attitude from both KD and Book and their passive aggressiveness is why we aren't a contender.

The beer was 18 bucks for a 24 ounce which for round town for two beers other places could be very close. At "dive" bars round the valley beers are 7-8 bucks.


I still remember nothing about the game. It was so dull in the building. I had many thoughts of "look at the millionaires causally throwing a ball at the basket". Not a highlight and I drank a lot.

Not one person in the lower deck round me seemed into what was happening on the court. "Tie game"...okay, "Up by twelve"...okay. Nobody gave a crap about the players or game.

My brother with me ( a dieahrd sports guy) wanted to hit the Team Shop before we went to our seats. After seeing t-shirts going for over a hundred he said "let get the f outta here".

It's a Christmas miracle.

Outrebounded 50:38. Maybe a trade for Richards solves this issue and he has a similar effect Gafford had on Mavs after last trade deadline.

The highlight of the game was 'I believe I can fly' moment from Grayson. At 2:30.

40! percent offensive rebound rate for the Jazz

40! percent offensive rebound rate for the Jazz

On the plus side Plumlee had five of his own and impressed with a game high +22. And Book and KD offset their top three scoring threats (for the night) less one point. Grayson, Brad, and Oso did the same with only one point less than their total bench. And Bud tweaked KD"s rest time for the fourth quarter. After the recent spate of games, it was nice to see a few encouraging signs. I just worry a little after our last back to back, still absent Royce.

I'm not surprised no one cares. It doesn't seem like our stars care THAT much, and the team has no joy. I do think the rookies have helped out some in that department....thank God we have them because if not we would not have young hungry blood that plays with more fire.

Though we won't see much young hungry blood with draft picks over the next 5-7 years barring a trade for some picks.

A long time ago I went to a few Coyotes games (went into some season tickets with a guy from work) and he was a heavy drinker. There was this dive bar close to the arena that had like $1 drafts or maybe even less than a $1 and we would race over there and down a couple between periods.

If you do want to have a few drinks and watch the game, why not watch at home with friends though...I mean those beer prices are absurd. I thought like $8 beers when I used to go back in the day were bad.

Just such a rip off.
