Jazz without Jefferson, Bell and Watson.

Jazz starting five:
Favors, Millsap, Howard, Miles, Harris

Second unit:
Kanter, Evans, Hayward, Burks, Tinsley.

GSW will be without Curry. Ellis, who is a Jazz killer is not anymore a Warrior.

Let them win for the sake of our pick

If the Jazz bring their A game this could be a record setting blowout. Jackson will go small most of the game. We are getting outrebonded by 20+ when he does that. Millsap will feast.

Jazz have a history of losing games they shouldn't to the Warriors.

You could argue that this is one they *should* lose, at least strategically. I don't see it happening, though.

The Warriors will have Nate Robinson controlling the ball on offense.

Play CJ all 48 minutes.

We need to lose this one badly........GS will try very hard to lose, so we better do our best.

We have Andris Biedrins starting at center... if we get too big of a lead, we'll just put him in for the rest of the game... it's old 4 on 5 tanking trick perfected by famous tanker and well-known drunk Don Nelson years ago in Milwaukee. Say goodbye to yo... errr, our draft pick!

Good game to see how we play without Al Jeff and Raja.

Don't forget that we have CJ Miles.

David Lee & Millsap don't seem to like each other too much

I can't figure this one out. It feels like we're winning, winning by a fair amount. But, every time I look up the scoreboard says differently.

But, I'm confident the Jazz are going to win this one. They usually do when I have the feeling they are winning.

Good 3rd quarter by the Jazz. Soooo nice to see Bruks out there. I really wish our young guys could get starter minutes.

Tinsley looks pretty youthful out there. It's rather remarkable, he didn't look youthful when he was young.

It is a joy to watch Kanter. I thought we had drafted another big-white stiff. Kid loves to play and has amazing energy. Still learning but he is going to be good to great.

He seems a lot younger than 34 when he's out there.
