Which loss sucked more?
I'd say Houston. At home, their two best players injured, fourth quarter no show. This Dallas game was nothing new. Dork can be unstoppable sometimes, what can you do?

Re: Which loss sucked more?
Dallas. No question.
The Houston loss was terrible. Absolutely knocked the wind out of us.
But then, we get back up, we play hard, and we put the Mavs on their heels with some great play over three quarters.
Fantasic, I'm a Jazz fan again.
But wait. Sloan drops the 3rd quarter line up. Puts Okur on Dirk. Boozer is pretty much crap. D-Will doesn't come through. What a stomach-punch. What a stab in the gut! What a **** mess of a goddamn team.
It's one thing to get blown out by a surpsing and youthful team running you out of the building (almost reminds me of the 03-04 jazz). It's one thing to collapse utterly after being up by 16 the next day due to coaching, chemistry and emotional fatigue,.

Dallas. We let them go on a ****ing 36-9 run to end the game!
Fun fact: Dirk outscored the entire Jazz team in the 4th quarter 29-18.

I have literally never been more embarrassed to be a Jazz fan in my life. What happened tonight is the worst thing I have ever witnessed from the Jazz. I seriously have never not wanted to be a Jazz fan, until tonight. It's gonna take a couple days to get over this one. Oh and the Spurs on Thursday. Awesome...

Word is, South Beach is ecstatic that they
won't be seeing Millsaps talents again this season...

Boy, I hope Miles and Korver bring some major mojo to the Jazz when they come back.
"Thibs called back and wanted more picks," said Jorge Sedano. "And Pat Riley, literally, I was told, called him a mother-bleeper and hung up the phone."

Easily tonight's loss. And I hate Houston with a white hot passion. But tonight was just painful on some other level I don't know. They had this game. Just had it. And Sloan's ineptitude cost them it. Hey Jerry, there are these things called "timeouts." You don't get points by hanging onto them. They are actually useful every now and then in stopping another team's run!

I'm still confused as to whether our defense was actually good for 3 quarters or if the Mavs just plain sucked.

Definitely the Mavs one. At least Houston had a good game, hitting tons of shots and outhustling us. Dallas was terrible all game long, yet we let Dirk singlehandedly win the game for them in the 4th.

Dallas. Even if we let Nowitzki go off in the 4th, all we gotta do is convert at the other end to stay ahead. We completely self imploded in every way possible

The Mavs on this one. For 3 whole quarters i thought we were going to win this game. You have to try pretty hard to lose your 16 point lead and lose as bad as we did. Or not try at all in our case.

Re: Which loss sucked more?
I'm about ready to take a bat to my dish box, have the internet disconnected, and go hide in the basement.
First My NY GIANTS completly implode after teasing me with a great 5-0 start and then get the **** kicked out of them three straight.
Then The jazz..............well they suck!
softest team they have ever put on the floor. The funny/sad/sick part is that it is by far the most expensive. Time to dynamite this roster. The only player I would dub untouchable is Deron.
Go Yankees?????????
