Looks like another tough game for the Jazz, won't be surprised if we end up with another L. On the plus side, Morant is really fun to watch.

For once, I decided I'll actually watch this game. I had it DVR'd with no commercials and no halftime break, and I still quite literally fell asleep at halftime. I could see where the game was going, though, and wasn't surprised to find the Grizzlies won the game. I did manage to see us get beat on simple cuts and backdoor cuts on defense a lot for many easy baskets. House was good though--I think he deserves a contract till the end of the season at least.

Really sad... I'm not sure this trend is going to finish.

Do you remember last Sloan Season? We were 27-13, then we fall to 31-23 when Sloan quit and finished 39-43.

We were 28-10 this season. Suddenly we are 30-20.

If Danuel House is 21 points in 15 minutes and Bojan and Clarkson are sucking in FG%... why do you not play him more?

He is young and he is trying to defend.

I don't think we need to worry about missing the playoffs like that, but there will be seeding implications for the games we lost. However, it remains to be seen if it will hurt or benefit the Jazz in the end. I don't expect the Jazz to win a lot of games when they're missing Gobert and Mitchell, but if this season ends once again in a first\second round exit, there better be some serious shake up in the roster.
