Sounds like a rough game without all those guys - and whoever else gets held out for pending trades.

Walker goes off for 30?

Well now we're hurt again, missing 4 players against top competition. Our size right now is Barnes, KO and Robinson. Oh and Mogbo.

Supposedly Poeltl has been dealing with this hip injury for awhile and he’s been playing through it. Kinda dumb that we didn’t sit him earlier.

Ainge surely did show off his 4d chess moves when he bamboozled us by dumping Ochai on Masai's head.

Don't forget that untouchable core of Lauri Markkanen and.... John Collins? Can't forget about.... Keyonte George?


This Ainge jerk-off is just weird. The Jazz suck. The Jazz are gonna suck for the next 5 years +

In 2021/22 we had Siakam/Anunoby/FVV + Barnes and people complained. They have Lauri/Collins/Sexton who are the same age as we were in 2022 except instead of being a 48 win team they have to go back to 2022/23 to find their last 48 wins :lol: And for all that, they got nothing to show for it. 11 wins, no stud prospects, just a 14% chance at Flagg. Yay>
What an absolute failure and disaster this franchise is, ran by one of the most incompetent front offices in the league.

Feels like an L. They're a brutal defense (best in the league, in fact), and 4th on O.

They're banged up, with like a half-dozen guys questionable for this game, though, and I think Desmond Bane is out, so we'll have to see.
