Games being broadcast in Utah. Playing on league pass. Collins looking super confident, Dame looks the most engaged that I've seen him this preseason

Goody we get to see Mike "Blazer Killer" Conley more often now. Has he ever had a sub-par night facing the Blazers in his entire life of the NBA?

I'm encouraged from what I've seen. There have been stretches of solid execution which is more than I thought I'd see at this time of the season.

Jazz dont look that scary honestly. On paper their defense was the most intimidating but Dame and CJ are picking them apart. Mitchell looks like a star though. I hope Zach proves worth passing on Mitchell, good first half.

Soooo not sure if I’ve mentioned that the wife is bff’s with a few of the Miller’s wives but I am underwhelmed by our bench... great access and we look like the better team... if this was regular season we are up by 15
From Portland to Reno to Vegas to LA to SLC and on to HotLanta. Winning at life. Too Blessed to be Stressed

Blazers looking solid in this game, playing much better defense than what we saw against Phoenix. Helps when both CJ and Lillard are just absolutely destroying the other team offensively.

It's pretty hilarious watching guys bitching about foul calls on them even in the pre-season. The one thing most NBA players are in mid-season form at even in the pre-season.

Simons is doing alright against a top NBA defender at the moment.

That spin move he had looked pretty damn nice, I like how he drives the rim, he has a reasonable number of moves he can implement and he is still very young.

Both teams are playing their best guys most of this game this looks more like a regular season game to me more or less. Maybe a bit less minutes for their best players but close to normal.

Meh, both teams playing their deep bench in this last 5 minutes or so.
