Seriously due for a bounce back game. The energy the crowd is going to bring tonight is going to be the difference maker for all our new guys. I expect a W here.

We had better win tonight. D-Will played horrendously last night. His 3 turnovers aren't indicative of his truly poor passing. So many passes, so many mistakes. So out of character for him. Hopefully D-Will realizes what was wrong and corrects it tonight. That's not to say that our whole team didn't look just, plain and simple, awful. But D-Will is our leader and this team goes as D-Will goes.

I thought DWill did a pretty good job of passing last night, the guys he passed to just weren't connecting. I think he should have had 5 more assists in the first half than he did.

That aside, it's highly unlikely all of our guys play as poorly as they did last night. I can't think of one player that played particularly good aside from Evans.

Tonight's environment will be perfect for the guys. Like I said before, I expect a (pretty) easy win.

The problem with D-Will was the placement and timing of his passes. For anyone else they probably would've been decent passes, but not for D-Will. A lot of passes below players waists, or just slightly too far ahead/behind where they should be. Again, I am probably just nit-picking, but they were small mistakes that Deron doesn't usually make. Fingers crossed for tonight.

I really hope a bounce back game... I think we deserve to do better than we did. They are weak inside, so it's team to take advantadge on that.

Yes. We SHOULD blow these guys out.

Hopefully either Millsap or Jefferson will step up and play. They both shied away from shots, way too timid yesterday. Even after yesterday's horrible game, holy **** I've never seen so many free throws, I'm still really stoked for this game.

Considering the Suns are going to be one of the worse teams in the West this year we should dominate them through the whole game.

Suns have no interior O or D and their only hope is to fast break and chuck up 3s. The Jazz noeed to step and win this one. A loss would be kind of devasting even though only 2nd game of season.

Glad there is a quick game tonight to help us put that pathetic showing in Denver behind us...

Well on the up side, they jazz can't play worse than yesterday.

Maybe the home crowd can get them fired up.

the energy of the solutions arena will bring things guys out of any funk of the previous night. See that, see what i did there... awesome.

The game is on TNT, not ESPN. FYI

We've always been a good home team plus Amare isn't there to rape Sap so the loss of Boozer shouldn't kill us as too much tonight. Get well soon Memo.

I donno; Memo doesn't look as good in a suit.

To play the devil's advocate, the Jazz have admitted their weaknesses are transition defense and perimeter defense.

This is where a player like Jefferson can really help the Jazz control the pace of the game. I don't expect him to be great this game, I'm expecting more from Millsap.

Wizards and Magic need to stfu and gtfo. No fouls no timeouts.

Will this game set the record for latest Jazz buzzer?
