Act like you have some class FFS.

Also even before series started Jazz were killing Clippers in the prediction poll, so the victim thing doesn't work.


Everyone should have some class, I agree. But there was that one Clip fan who erroneously called a Jazz fan a liar. Definitely not classy. Who was that by the way? :wink:

Nobody worth a crap is gonna sign in Utah and the Clips are maxed out and not close either. GSW, SA or Cleveland for the foreseeable future.

I think most fan bases no this including me with my bulls. But its the die hard fan in us that lead us to get emotional about our teams...What do you expect for us to be like who cares its not like we're going to win anyway? No way

I get it, i just think as a Clippers fan ive been looking at it in a big picture sense for the last couple years. The writing has been on the wall and its time. So im being a pessimist

Btw.....**** Joe Johnson

Whatever, Griffin played 2.5 games, Gobert missed the first 3 games, limited minutes now, and Hayward basically a game too. Favors is on one knee.


What about the regular season when they get own by the clippers? When both team are healthy, clippers has always beaten the jazz.

This is a playoff series, both coaches have time to scout each other properly and make adjustments on the fly. Snyder is a better coach than Doc.


Not to mention that the Clippers probably never even played the Jazz at full strength during the season, we had our regular starting lineup for like 12 games?

They are without Blake Griffen dude..They barely won this game with a full line up. No way Utah beat the Clippers with both team being healthy.

I don't think you realise just how many great wide open looks Utah missed. If they even make half of them it would've been a blow out in favour of the Jazz.


But its not a blow out?

Because they missed too MANY wide open looks. If they collectively shoot their normal percentage on their wide open looks, like they should, it would've been a blow out.

Why are the Jazz fans so cocky on this board? We all know you guys are gonna get destroyed in the next round. Salt Lake City is beautiful but it isn't the tech mecca the Bay Area is and because of that you don't have the venture capitalists and prime management team to do the necessary advanced analytics to win. Get with the program, mormons!

This is not acceptable. Please do not respond to this post.

You'll have to give me context, because I'm pretty sure that was a misunderstanding. Very different than what's going on here. Even so maybe class isn't what I'm bothered by so much as unwarranted arrogance.

Stop with this already. Your disrespect is no less of an insult. Neither team has been healthy and it's dumb to get all cocky after barely beating them without BG. Nobody knows how things may have gone with both teams completely healthy.

And this series ain't over yet, so don't jinx my team, damnit.

This is the first 50 win season and playoff appearance for the Jazz in how long? Act like you got some sense man. I love the Jazz. They deserve it. But don't act like this team just won a title.

The thing is even Clippers fans here talk like series is over and say Jazz will be crushed in next round. Why don't you have confidence and say you can win in 7?

Utah just better not cave against GS. I want them to play with this same confidence and poise. They are really sound on both ends, they look like a ~6 SRS team when fully healthy like this. Play like it, please. At least delay the inevitable GS triumph.

clips did not look like they were playing with any urgency at the end of that game... terrible.

I didn't say ALL of the shots, I said the normal percentage of shots. If they hit their normal percentage of shots this game would've been a blow out bruh.

Because we know our team. They are mentally weak and poorly coached. Once they are down, it's pretty much over. Hell even 3-1 series leads aren't safe.

I wouldn't doubt it, but Jazz/Warriors is going to feature some incredibly beautiful basketball. it's a must watch for hoop junkies for the offensive execution, in-game and game-to-game adjustments, and defensive schemes both teams will plan for.

Doc Rivers shot himself in the foot by establishing that thin bench. Seriously, it's 2017 and you expect Paul Pierce and Crawford to take care of business for you?

great end of the game. clutch shots by hill and joejoe-- and paul, even though he was on the other end of it. its too bad he's shackled to doc's coterie of washed up scrubs.
