Game 74: Utah Jazz (35-38) @ Sacramento Kings (44-29)

Let's not accidentally win this one, please.

Nice to see a 31 points of Kessler but.. probably we're not going to win any games left.

We can only hope.

I'd like to see the Jazz feed him in the post and see if he has any post moves. Agbaji was also decent.

Respect to the Kings, it's good to see them have a good team. Their fans deserve it, they suffered more than most fanbases. I was never a fan of Mike Brown but he certainly did a very good job over there. It's probably the first time in his career as a head coach that I actually think he's done a good job.

Good loss.

I am not going into this whole Rookie of the Year thing but Kessler is definitely a steal. Glad he’s on our side…

Jazz started 3 rookies, Tech, the Sheriff, and Oh My Agbaji and hung throughout the game with a much deeper and more skilled team. I love how they are in almost every game. Seems like there have been only a handful of games where they were not in it to were blown out, of course the Bucks game being the most obvious recently. Jazz could do a big O-fer for the remainder of the season and that would be a nice way to end the season by trying to gain as many ping png balls as possible. Keep playing hard, but coming up just a bit short...perfect!

BTW, Gobert's career high in points is 35, just for reference.

I missed the last couple of games, but yes, 21 year old rookie Kessler putting up 31 points playing against Damantis Sabonis is darn impressive.
