Jazz @ Knickerbockers 

Post#1 » by BarneyGumble » Mon Mar 7, 2011 10:23 pm

I dont see a game thread, so here it is.

I'd love to see a Jazz win, but honestly....I dont see us getting into the playoffs this season...so I guess I'm in "tank" mode though not really, I just want to see Favors get major burn and carry some momentum into his off season.

I would like to see us resign Kirilenko. I am convinced he is a better player without Deron and Boozer around. Lets hope his recent play is no fluke and he keeps it up tonight.

Oh, and I detest Carmelo Anthony. I wouldn't mind if he were hit by a bus or gets the ole "slap and run" that he himself invented on his way to the MSG tonight.

GO JAZZ.

Haha, I forgot about that. They should loathe the guy, but instead, they've been losing for so long that they got desperate. Not a bad consolation prize for missing out on the Queen though. To me, the Knicks are Heat. Jr. I hope the Bulls stick it to the east come playoff time.

You know, I remember recently I was watching a show where one of the NBA analysts was saying that great point guards know where their teammates like to get the ball and they get them the ball in those spots. All I could think was that Deron never did anything of the sort with AK. Hell, I could swear I've seen AK post up more in the few games since Deron left than in the entire start of the season.

We win if we play good defense! Oh yeah, we play no defense so I guess we lose. We are scoring the ball pretty well other than the occasional lull. Raja is even hitting the occasional open outside shot. Interior Defense needs big time improvement. If Millsap doesnt play today bc of injury then maybe Favors helps out our interior defense.

I had planned on going to New York on vacation during this week for my yearly vacation where I planned to watch the Jazz play the Knicks tonight but my mother passed away so my vacation got cancelled. I will be watching it on TV like everybody else.
Top 4 seed in the West!!! Guaranteed!!!

NY will be missing Billups, Millsap will play tonight. I give us a shot to win . Knicks aren't a very good team, they clearly lack depth, and missing Billups will hurt them.

Would love a win here, but lets be honest. Hope for solid play and effort.

At this point the playoffs are still up for contention, but with a brutal last 10 games of the reg season, we need all these to get into the playoffs.

Regardless, hope to make the playoffs if not we get a lottery pick back which isnt bad.

Looking at the standings even if we go into full tank mode just how far could we fall? the only team below us that is close is Houston. And those other teams are in full tank mode already. So we get one higher spot. Would it be worth it. I dunno. Let's just win damnit!

Giving up 40+ in the first quarter is never a good start

Favors with 4 points and 3 offensive rebounds in 4 minutes but watch Ty not play him more than 15 minutes the entire game.

Lets see if the Knicks can keep this up.

I think the Jazz had at least 2 games this year where tehy started out on fire like the Knicks are. I think they lost them both.
