Jazz are 6-4 at home and 1-10 on the road. Hoping Clippers come in with a take care of business mentality. Play solid defense and execute on offense. Might be able to give Kawhi rest in the 4th quarter.

Another team we don't do well against. Markenann is out, which only means one or more of their role players will have a career night.

Get well soon if he’s not good to go. Hopefully Brown or Diabate have good games yo keep Tucker on the bench.

Unfortunate about Theis.. might be time to get the Moussa Diabate 23-24 campaign off the ground, and onto the trails...

We got this!

No Theis really sucks. No Diabate either because he’s on g-league assignment. I fear we’re going to see a lot of Tucker tonight.

My, the ESPN announcers are bloody dreadful. Some of the worst I've heard. Switching over to Bally.

Zu and Kawhi looking exc.

Zu is all world right now. Kobe playing great and unselfish. Russ doing good Russ things. Kawhi awesome. Keep it up cause it’s early

KL2 · Post #13 » by **KL2** » Sat Dec 9, 2023 3:43 am

Leonard on one tonight. Needed more touches at least. Zu came to play too.

PG with 2 fouls hurts.

Brown with that nice pump fake on 2 defenders to get a Zu dunk.

Brown in foul trouble sucks.

Westbrook needs to calm down. Trying too much.

Passing to Zu in heavy traffic isn’t a good idea. Let’s make that a rule

you wouldn't think a lineup featuring james harden and norman powell could put out strong defensive sequences, yet here we are

zu being a legit anchor has big part in that, but harden/powell are giving some solid effort, too.

KL2 · Post #16 » by **KL2** » Sat Dec 9, 2023 4:05 am

Please stay healthy Leonard. That in/out dunk was sweet.

Beard knows how to pass to Zu. It's that next-level thing, getting it to him how and where he can do something with it. Otherwise you're right--nobody else should even try.

kawhi carried us in the first half.

esqtvd · Post #19 » by **esqtvd** » Sat Dec 9, 2023 4:17 am

Mann is 2-4 from 3 tonight

only 17% on the year

he WILL climb back toward his mean, 37% lifetime 3-pt shooter

and that is gonna make a HUGE difference, watch out

Pretty great 1st half! Hopefully PG will do that thing where he comes to life at any random point in the game. His defense was good though. Not much else to say. Oh but Utah is definitely missing Markkanen
