Added to Calendar: 04-05-21

If you’re gonna have a bad game one in every 10 then best to be terrible in every single aspect and get it out of your system.

Some dudes had some Tex Mex yesterday for sure.
In the last 23 games the playoff teams we beat were:
1. Short-handed Clippers on road who then beat us back at full strength
2. @ Celtics
3. Short-handed Nets
4. Short-handed Lakers
 
Grizzlies were number 2 defense in the league in their last 15 games before they faced us. They are 6-3 in their last 9 games. Those all 3 losses being against the Jazz. Did we win something over Philly, Clippers, Heat, Celtics when Grizzlies beat them during their stretch.
You consider the Grizz to be a good team?

Who cares? We beat a lot of good teams the first half of the season.
 
Didn't Royce go to Baylor? If he did now we have an explanation why he sucked so bad. He was trying to end the game quickly so he could watch his team. This loss is on Royce and DM. Coach deserves some blame. He should have bench both of the guys and tried other players. Conley. Bogey and Rudy should have gotten more shots. I never understood shooting yourself out of a slump in a game.
 
It was like we played with no sense of urgency until we were down by 105 points and then it was too late. I think it was right that no player in the box score had a + by their name through 3 quarters. Our starters showed they can play in garbage time.
 
Didn’t Donovan miss both games before? We should run away with this one. I predict we’ll play so well that Quin is going to be pissed. Royce is probably going for a career high, if Quin doesn’t pull him before that.

Damn.

Suns playing Rockets twice then Wizards at home. Gotta win in Phoenix on Wednesday if we wanna protect our top seed spot.

I like that you chose to stop there. The three games before that were beating philly, miami, and milwaukee.

I'm sure it time to panic though... It's not like we have the best seed right now.

Just all the games ESPN had in their schedule sidebar. I could have cherry picked and stopped at 15 which is still a significant amount of games. And who is panicking and saying we aren't the best seed right now?
We are deep, healthy and playing good team basketball. But if we fall short of getting to the conference finals (and not getting bounced by a healthy LAL) I am sure we will analyze the regular season wins and losses.
 
They haven't been playing worse than Mavs during their last games.
I give us that - we generally beat the teams we are supposed to. Sure we had that rough patch against the Warriors and the Wiz but we take care of business especially at home.
 
I was at the American Airlines Center today and felt embarassed by Royce performance. At some point in the 3rd, they were just leaving him open and doubling Clarkson/Mitchel. I mean, what harm could he do?
Anyways, super nice to watch a game in the arena feeling the energy and seeing the guys I root for every 2 days a little closer. Funny thing, a LOT of Jazz fans attending the game very loud fans despiste the poor performance.
 
@Nicksti

random ****, but I don't think your username is random although I guess it's top secret if you drive a Subaru STi. I am a Subaru STi owner and have been curious if you are too. I don't know if, although it's part of your username, you feel like that is too much personal info to share on the internet but whatever. Just trying to get to know a new poster.
 
I figured they’d lose this one, then I read Kristap was out and I thought for sure we got this.

Honestly though, this loss doesn’t concern me at all - it was just one of those games where all the luck, all the 50/50 balls went the Mavericks way; not to mention just the dreadful shooting performance. That will happen from time to time from even the hottest shooting team in the league - it just so happened to be tonight.
 
I missed the second half going to dinner with my family and mother in law. Looks like I didn't miss much.
0-8 royce? Really?
6-23 Donovan? Really?
Looks like everyone else played ok or good for the most part according to the box score.

Suns made some ground on us by barely beating the worst team in the league.

Anyone know what happened to harden? I see he only played 4 minutes
