Tonights game is huge

[Bodhi]

I expect a loss tonight but hopefully we play better... the issue isn’t just wins and losses it’s that we haven’t played well.

See, it’s so much this. I get so annoyed by the dudes that say “it’s the schedule, it’s Quin’s complex offense, we always start slow, chill”.

It’s not that we lose, it’s how we do it that’s so frustrating. Case in point, I can totally handle the Bucks loss on this trip because we simply got beat. We played a good game and theirs was just better.

But those are rare. Usually it’s just a terrible case or us imploding or lack of chemistry or both. Sure, I give credit to other teams and how they impact us but it’s usually not the case. It’s usually very apparent the team isn’t clicking that game and that’s that.

So I can handle losses and will always support the team, but I’m not going to pretend everything is ok until late February and just trust it will all work out ok and we are a WCF team. The evidence so far says we simply aren’t.

The sky is falling.

I expect we win tonight and/or against LA.

We suck to start off games, then have to climb back into the games exerting too much energy then run out of gas. We need better starts.

I like that Quin asked the team the tough question. At the same time I hope he's looking at himself in the mirror and realizing the offense needs to be changed. Can't run a basic single high screen most of the game and hope to score enough. We need to be more creative.

1st and 3rd quarters have been solid actually... its the 2nd and 4th where we've struggled.

Sorry mostly 2nd quarters, you are right!

Losing 4 out of 5 on this road trip would never have happened with the squad we had at the end of last season! No reason to beat a dead horse, but giving up Rubio and Favors was the deathnill of this Jazz squad for sure! Don't know for sure who pushed for this change but whomever it was, should be shot!

It wouldn't have happened 'AT THE END OF LAST SEASON'. However, the BEGINNING of last season we SUCKED BAD. We'll be fine.

Funny. I was trying to think of something positive after last night and thought that last season when we had a crap game like that in Dallas it finished in the franchise record 50 points blowout. Yesterday we still responded with a record 49 pts 3rd quarter.

I just don't see any way we win this one. Back to back against a really good Philly team that is undefeated at home, last game of a long road trip, 3rd game in 4 nights and the 9th game in 15 nights. I hate to make excuses but the guy's have to be worn out at this point.

Well, what if we score more than they do?
