Williams and Favors are doubtful.

The first must win of the season. A loss here would be devastating to the Jazz especially since we cant win on the road. Magic happy to win 2 on road trip already and roll over to jazz blow out. Unfortunately, with a blow out then the Big Al/Millsap lovers come back. I would rather have them both gone now and really dont care what we get back in return.

[FJS]

I agree with you. They are doing a good job winning @ Lakers (altough they aren't as good as expected) and @ GSW (they have a great record). Then they have to play @ Kings and @ Suns who are worse than us, so maybe this is the game they will play off and we need badly this win.
We did not played bad at all vs Clippers, but refs screwed us.

[DelaneyRudd]

They beat the Lakers! They must be really good!

[FJS]

Well, at this point I would love to be able to win @ Lakers, but we have lost @ NO, and @ Kings... so altough to win vs Lakers it's not so difficult, it's not as win vs Wizards.

[red4hf]

Start Kanter!!!!!!!! Why the hell not........

[Blackie]

The Wizards just beat the Heat. Anything is possible. I like Al. If he plays good, we win. We need to develop our younger players. The way Milsap is playing we probably could not get much for him right now. I liked it when he hit winnig shots over the Heat last year. Favors and Kantor both play well at the 4 position. I like how Hayward has been playing. Go Jazz. Win and we are in the top eight. Lose and we are out.

Jazz are 8 point favorites and Vegas never lies

Jazz are 8 point favorites and Vegas never lies

All that means is the half the money bet has fewer than 8 points and half the money is on more. The opening point spread is an educated guess but the line moves so risk to the house is spread to both sides of the bet.


Oh I know it was just a joke though.

How many times will Boler mispronounce "Vucevic" tonight?

[Inigo Montoya]

jazz playing well so far. don't know how the magic beat the lakers - i guess they just ran the floor, played up-tempo and fouled howard a lot.

[Inigo Montoya]

the jazz just can't put teams away. the offense is stuck, tinsley needs to get some minutes.

[reapaman]

Well its tough to put teams away when only two players are making their shots. The other guys seriously need to stop sucking and people need to show Jefferson his respect.

[Inigo Montoya]

got to love carroll

here here.

i for one, was always on big al's camp. and today vucevic gets eaten alive by him. YOU JUST CAN'T HANDLE BIG AL IN THE POST, YO!

[TexJazz]

Another game where the jazz will grab defeat from the jaws of victory. They sure do miss Favors.

[Inigo Montoya]

if the jazz lose i'm seriously gonna f***ing lose it.

[TexJazz]

Al played pretty damn good tonight. Hope he is ok
