Beautiful play execution by the Jazz on that Neto 3.

Its unbelievable that we can have five guys out in the first month of the season.

One game closer to being out of playoff contention and focusing on collecting assets. Three more weeks and we should be at that point.

Everyone complaining about the unhealthy players tonight are being fooled by the Wizard of Oz. We just sat a ton of players against the last basketball team we actually won a game against. The full tank is ON!

Me too. I almost didn't get it this year (had it every year since it came out) really regretting it. Only other team I was kinda interesting in checking out was Boston, but that ended after the Hayward injury.

I'm going to tank too. If somebody want to make game threads do it please. I'm sick of this team and I'm sick to wait from 1st days of may for that.

I enjoy watching Boston, NY, Pelicans (now with Rondo! ) and esp. Philly this season. They have something special going on over there, dont sleep on Embiid and Simmons. Also the Spurs are always the reference for "how it should be done" whenever i am uncertain.

I'm sorry to hear that FJS. Hope you stick around

Sure stitches. But it's a work for free of a few minutes x 82. And it's not the same when you are excited by the game than when you expect to suck.
I really enjoy doing it. And probably I will do some of them. But only for posters not for that team.

My enthusiasm and optimism has certainly tanked but I'm hanging that not on DL or Q but a fragile line-up with an injury bug that has bitten the Jazz again. Favors, Alec and Rudy have been huge disappointments. When a team has 5 of its top players struggling with injury and a brutal December schedule - no way out of that deep of a hole. Last night was miserable to watch - I found myself unengaged until Neto started getting it going but that was hardly enough and I turned it off in the 4th quarter. The style of basketball both teams were playing was depressing. I don't know about you guys but watching teams jacking 3's early in the clock with no offensive rebounding (on purpose it appears) is degrading the game to a 3-point shooting fest. I much preferred watching basketball with offensive and defensive strategy and counter-strategy occurring.

The worst part? Jazz don't even have the right pieces to tank properly, unless you think that Gobert, Mitchell and Exum are worth building around. Mitchell likely won't become a consistent force for several years. Exum is a hope. Smells like a Sacramento problem pending.

Rudy was not playing his best basketball, but his value is showing now. We're getting blasted every single night on defense, and we all know how good the offense is. The most disappointing part about this roster is there is very little to look forward to. Mitchell jacking up shots is the only thing worth watching.

It's not like the Jazz were playing well before the injuries. The injuries don't help, but the main reasons for this terrible season are DL and Snyder.

This. they (we) did know we were to stink and did a poorly job.
Thabo, Rubio, udoh or jerebko are nice role players in a team with great offensive pieces. But we don't have those pieces.
