What a finish to the half. Jazz missed some open 3's but overall we stayed in front of our match ups.

If only Jerami coulda paid off some of those open 3's :cry:

Russ and Adams playing well. PG13 is moving better despite shooting percentage and some bad fouls.

So many bad plays omg...PG13 was right to be pissed at the refs against the Clippers but tonight he just made bad foul after bad foul

I apologize for not roaming this way more often, but what the hell is up with PG13? Hasn't looked the same since the break.

PG looks awful on offense

For those of us who didn't watch, was our defense just that great tonight? Like, was in it in October-December form? Or were the Jazz just that horrible offensively?

Far better for sure. Jazz missed some open looks, but they were for the most part locked in.

Without any point guards (Rubio/Neto) and Exum on a minutes restriction, when Donovan was out of the game we couldn't get into the lane at all. OKC's defense was good, but our offense was also bad.

Didn't even realize at first that Rubio didn't play when I checked the boxscore. That for sure would've made a difference (obviously), especially since Rubio tends to play well against us.

He's very much a polarizing player, but we are definitely better with him than without. I'd love to see us grab a better starting point guard and be able to retain Rubio as a backup.

Any idea what happened? He was holding a towel over his face and was walking like he had no balance. I don't remember seeing him get hit, but he must have.

That game was definitely an improvement on what we've been seeing from this group in recent weeks. Seemed like everyone actually made an effort to stay in front of their man for a change.

I also liked how Westbrook managed the game. He wasn't out there looking for his own shot most of the night. He was actually more in distro mode tonight, which is what usually works best for this team.

Concussion like symptoms

He had an awkward fall. It looked like he hit a wet spot and his feet slid from under him. His left leg bent backwards underneath him as he fell but it didn't look that serious. I didn't see his knee bend/hyper-extend so my guess is it could be some type of hip or quad strain.

He was hit in the head? I missed that.

Can you do some research and figure out why the Jazz kept watering their court down?

Multiple slips (even the Donovan step back Nerlens slips).

I’m kidding obviously, but man it was bad tonight

I don’t believe this guys version of the story at all.

By the way just to make sure everyone understands before I’m attacked. BOTH Russ and the fan(s) are wrong
