IT goes off for another 20 points. Alex Len with another double double!

One of those statements has 90% of happening while the other I'll give 10%. Still I hope you're right.

Always hard to go without rest to Utah. It is possible that this will be close or even a stinker.
It is even harder when the Jazz have rested and the opponent did not.
37 W to 165 L in that spot.

Trap game. Hope they come out focused.

Scary game. I think it won't be easy.

I get more excited watching Suns play in the road then at home. How about you guys?

I like home games rather than road games.

Nice thread again, just a heads up that it's November 1st not October - keeps getting me too!

These are the type of games we have to win. We can't lose to bad teams. We lost to Utah twice last year I think. We missed playoffs by one game so had we won those Jazz games, we'd have got in.

I think Bledsoe is the only one that should be exhausted. He played 40 mins. Everyone else played normal minutes.

Jazz were blown out by Dallas losing by as much as 40 pts at one point. We should be able to beat them easily even though we're on a back to back. We aren't an old ass team, so it can't be an excuse.

He will be missed. With the return of Bledsoe for a full season, the improvement of the brothers, the coming of age of Len and the addition of IT we were poised for a 72 win season. Now, without Channing, we'll be lucky to win 55 games.

I think we lost once.
And Bledsoe and dragic didn't play.
I think I can't remember I know Goodwin started.

So yeah when you have key guys down that happens

We also lost another one to them, second of a home and home late november. I remember because it was one of two games i didnt watch last season.

Also had the game winner with Bledsoe.
Seems like Utah matches up against us well

I'm thinking the Jazz have a good chance of upsetting us. We've only won once in Utah the past couple of times, and the guys have to be a little tired after the Spurs game.

Beat that ass, baby.

Its because their front court always tends to kick our ass. I mean, most front courts kick our ass but Utah just takes it to a whole another level.

Plumlee has had foul trouble past couple games, I expect that to continue. He can't handle Favors or Kanter.
