The Jazz are struggling this year but they have beaten the Wizards already. When Kanter plays more than Favors, he has been producing better! I love the young players the Jazz have gotten... If I was a fan, I'd have wished they gotten something for Millsap and/or Big Al last year but they're in good shape and know how to draft. Utah is one of those organizations that has only missed the playoffs a handful of times in the last 30 years and they seem to know how to re-tool rather quickly. They also know the best years to tank. Unfortunately, we can't say the same about our organization. #FireGrunfeld

In Utah's last game, they got throttled by Ersan Illyasova and the supposed-to-be-tanking Milwaukee Bucks.

Meanwhile our Wizards will be without Seraphin and Webster probably. Our team has gotten much older the last few weeks with the additions of veterans. The Grizzlies gritted and grinded the Wizards out of Monday's game until the final few minutes in which a crazy comeback was mounted that fell just short. Will the bench produce tonight? (hint: Andre Miller will, the rest probably won't).

Should be 88-114

Dre's PermFro is the best.

Otto's first big game? With Webster likely out again and Porter looking solid vs Memphis he should get some decent PT.

Hope so.. that would inject some much needed optimism into this season

Miller needs to show up tonight. If he provided anything on Monday the Wizards might have won. He was Eric Maynor bad...

Can't fool around with this team, they gave Indy a scare the other night. On the other hand, they just got destroyed by the lowly Bucks. They seem like they may play up to their competition. If trends continues -since the All-Star Break- we should get good production from Wall, Ariza, and Gortat. We need two other players to have good games to make this a comfortable win. Beal has been all over the map; his numbers are down since the break, especially his shooting from trey. If he can step up and maybe Book or maybe (heart pounding) Porter I think we could cruise. But point blank we need these next two games, let's get started here.

Yep, especially with Brooklyn breathing down our neck

Gordon Hayward audition.

Utah has no true inside defensive presensce. They have some good bigs but not are defensive rim protectors and even though Burke is good, he's still a unersized rookie. Meaning, if Wall doesnt attack from the jump I will be upset and it could keep Utah in the game. If Wall is aggressive he plays big and we win

Favors in foul trouble, good.

Lazy D by Wall so far.

Not even gonna say anything about the terrible Beal long twos anymore, it's obvious that Wittman wants him to continue taking them..

Just because the other guy makes some shots doesn't mean Wall is playing lazy d. Though he did not put a hand up on that last three.

On another note, great take by Wall on that last play, he's been much better at finishing as of late. Seems like he's taking some of that English off.

What is Wall doing? Is he trying to show up Burke?

It's official, Gortat plays much better without Nene.

They play pretty hard
