This is one of those games that have no good outcome for the tank.

I have to commend the Jazz on their tank. Sure, the team is losing and there have been some ugly games but those happen every season. Yet the Jazz stay in a lot of games and don't lose by outrageous margins too often, and still have the second worse record in the league. In contrast, the Wizards are losing almost every game by 30.
Props to Sexton, Collier and George on their good performances.

That was a general statement and obviously not aimed at this game. But whenever you're bummed about how the Jazz tanking, just look at the Wizards and you'd feel a lot better.

I don't feel better to know one team is tanking harder than us.
still if you wathc the graphic in games played in bball ref you will see we have lost a lot of games were we simply were close enough.
