Big Game Tonight 

Post#1 » by Adde91202 » Fri Apr 4, 2008 2:48 pm

It would really boost our confidence if we get a nice win tonight. We're playing on the road, but we are very well rested. What do you guys think? Btw, when is Bones coming back?

We're going to win this night. I'll be watching TV with high hopes.

pretty big test, going into Utah to play the best home team in the L, if we win this game we clinch a playoff berth so we have to get it done.

a win here, and I'd be convinced that we're back to the form we had at the beginning of the season..

Huge game for both teams. The Jazz can't afford to lose any at home, if the Jazz win this one they still have a small chance of getting Home court advantage in the first and possible second round. They lose this one and those hopes are probably dashed.

Nope, they have us beat in the series and in the conference. There is no way that we can beat NOH in the tiebreaker. Spurs have to flat out have a better record. However, 2nd is good with me. However, I'd rather see Lakers, Mavs, Suns, Jazz in the opposite 4. Currently Jazz and Suns are the only ones. Mavs and Lakers are in the 2,3,6,7 bracket.

As long as the national TV curse doesn't come into effect, we should win.

This is a huge game for both teams, and I expect it to be very entertaining to watch from both ends. Good luck tonight guys!

I think we'll be some better than them and win by 5-6 pts

Should be fun

Wow... ugly game. We look awful. We looked really good in the first quarter, 2nd quarter we dropped off a bit, but remained solid. After that, we're Miami Heat.

I didn't watch the game, but what a **** embarrassment..

we definitely aren't in playoff form if we get killed by a team we usually own, especially losing the game during our winning streak..

I guess we have to wait until the next tests to see if we're legit..

Oooh, almost forgot my obligatory 'Jacque Vaughn sucks' post.

Each time Jacque Vaughn touches the ball on offense is a wasted opportunity. This game just confirms that sentiment.

well, not like expected and not fun :P

Even in a losing expectation

Disgusting game

Not that excited over the loss, because I definitely like collectively, how we've been playing again, and still like the rest of the schedule.

As big of a win as this is for the Jazz, it doesn't have the feeling of a real big win. A 3 point grind it out win would have been way better for Utah's confidence. The Spurs just flat out laid an egg for 24 minutes. No one believes that the team who was out there is the team they would meet in the playoffs.
