test

This is going to be a tough game, I think. I could see Utah's size giving us some problems.

Utah is clearly underrated. It won't be easy. Good test for our team.

Yep should test the offense for sure. They're on a back to back.

Steven Adams is the key to this game.

In my opinion, George will be key to this game. Gobert-Adams will practically negate each other. George will be matched up with Ingles most likely and he should be able to take advantage of that matchup. Also, with Rubio's non-shooting, I think we will be able to contain their scorers quite well.

I see us winning 110-97.

If they score 110 I'd be amazed. And probably disappointed in giving up 97.

If they negate each other than we'll win.
Gobert is underrated player like Jazz team.
Tough away game but I predict a win too.

Very interesting game.

I'm very curious what a well coached and well scouting team like the Jazz are trying to exploit as our weakness, especially now that Kanter is gone.
I think we will clearly see what other teams think what our weak spots are.

One thing we might see is that the Jazz will play very big and try to either wear out Adams or try to get him in foul trouble.

Hood got hurt tonight and it sounds like it’s his Achilles. That’s unfortunate but helps us a lot.

Man that sucks, just saw the end of it. Really like Utah too.

Man injuries are everywhere already!
Rose just hurt his ankle too.

Utah are very underrated. Alot of people think they are out of the top 8 now Hayward is gone.
Utah are a great defensive team. Defense will always give you a chance to win.
Utah could dominate our bench on the boards if we are not careful. Billy better not get too fancy with dem lineups!

Utah is like the opposite of us, they're 13 deep when healthy.

Let's go Thunder.

Their starters were really balanced against Minnesota(14, 16, 10, 20, 19) the bench gave them nothing but at home you'd expect the bench to perform better.

I'm wondering how they'll match up with Melo/PG/Roberson. I'm thinking Hood on PG, Ingles on Melo and Favors on Dre.

I think hood is out. Mitchell starting possibly?

Yeah just seen Hood got hurt vs Minny. I would start Mitchell and keep Joe Johnson off the bench but they might need his offense early on. Russ/PG/Melo could put them away early if Utah has trouble scoring to start.

Juck the Fazz

(Sorry to hear about Hood though. That sucks)

Tell me about it. I've had him in fantasy basktball three years running and get burned every damn year. He just can't stay on the court for 10 games straight.
