One of the more important games of the season, and could really help with the Jazz's place in the standings particularly after their most recent win against the Wolves. Looks like the Jazz are taking it seriously.

Is it worse to be ofs or out?

I hope ofs doesn't mean dead. I'm all for tanking but I draw the line at killing players just to lose. Most of them anyway. I would be ok with a Draymond ofs.

Glad the Jazz managed to pull off the L, the Pelicans were very close to be dominated by Oscar Tshiebwe.

The Sensei had some nifty dribbling moves, even if he didn't always finished the play with a made basket.

I have been seen this game, and the offense is not gonna to be our problem. Sure we were playing the 14th team in the west, but we have a lot of talented offensive players. The problem is every team has a lot of them too.
Flip is a nice back up center. He can rebound, pass, shoot.
Brice has his nights. He looked good and with confidence.

Frankly, I know this is a business and not sports (or only sports) but we were seating Kessler, Collins, Markkanen, Sexton, Clarkson... feels like Wemby and Paul in the all star.

I watched some of the second half, and was really impressed with Oscar Tshiebwe's energy. He was really bringing it on rebounding, but I guess I caught him on his best game. I've got excited about one time performances from players before, only to see them disappear again in subsequent games. This guy is on a two-way, and may well go back to the Stars when Kessler and Flip are both available, but maybe there is hope for this player?

Flip is doing quite well for a 21 year old rookie. He can play inside and outside, and last night he had an impressive 7 assists. When I checked in on the Sacramento game, the Sac announcers were talking about Sabonis and big JV pushing him around, but at just age 21, he has upside to get stronger.

In his last 11 games Flip has checked 5 doubles doubles.

Tshiebwe reminds me a bit of a young Millsap. He's currently averaging more points than rebounds in the g-league, and he's scoring 15.5 points per game...
