[The Thriller]

On the bright side, I’m loving FuboTV. I currently have both YouTube tv and Fubo. Between the 2 of them I’m getting basically everything I want from sports. Fubo is only $65 per month too. Not bad. YouTube and fubo combined is still cheaper than crappy Comcast or any of the satellite deals. I don’t think I’ll ever return to cable or satellite.

just wished I had utopia or Google fiber in Lehi. Doesn’t make sense with all these damn tech companies here to be stuck with crappy internet.

Clarkson drives me nuts. biggest roller coaster player in jazz history without a doubt.

 

[The Fresh Prince]

Ya I was watching the kings stream too until the beginning of the 4th quarter when I found a jazz stream. Jazz announcers were so much better.

Yea bro, the Queens feed was preeeeety cringey. Trying to dispute obvious fouls their players committed to Gobert.

 

[fishonjazz]

Whiteside pretty decent overall tonight.

Ya we even went on a bit of a run with him in at one point which allowed rudy to rest longer than he usually would.

 

[The Thriller]

They're both cupcakes. Garnett used to punk Dwight all the time. And im sure you seen the locker room thing when AD was at Kentucky. They are probably dating behind the scenes... lmao!

Haha good post

 

[fishonjazz]

Rudy's getting roasted on twitter now.

Why? Cant be about his free throw shooting, rebounding, screen setting, or defensive presence thats for sure.

Keeping Rudy healthy and fresh this year could be huge. Wish butler would do something. It would be nice to Lighten Spida’s load. Every time he gets knocked down I hold my breath.

 

[fishonjazz]

Whatever he’s doing is working, he went 9-10. Does anyone else realize how huge it would be if he actually becomes a good free throw shooter?

Im not certain but I believe he was great from the line in game 1 as well. Someone want to fact check that for me?

 

[fishonjazz]

Just caught the end of the game. Oni -12 in 4 minutes lol wtf happened in those minutes? Was he that bad? Or did Hield hit 4 3s or something? Or both?

He was that bad

People are so stupid. You’re not going to find many other centers in the league who can do this. And historically, the Jazz never have. I remember getting excited when tag could get us 6 pts and 10 rbs.

They took Westbrook because the other two players demand more assets than Westbrook. Washington was dying to get rid of him. They are 2-0 and play more as a team. I know it is two games but all the media sucking up to the Lakers and predicting them as the Favorites. They could win one but it isn't a given and I think the chances it implodes and they finish middle of the pack. AD and Lebron cannot play 36 plus minutes a night or they will break down before the season ends. The Lakers just thought they could put together a team with past all-stars and win a championship. Problem is that all their former All-stars are shells of the players they use to be.

I cried tears of joy when the lakers signed westbrick and carmelo

Oni isn’t an nba player. He’s a complete 0 on offense and his defense is meh. He shouldn’t play. Forrest, Butler, and Eliza should all play ahead of him. I have questions about Eliza being an nba player too. But at least Eliza is a threat to shoot. While Oni is literally like picking any random fan to come out and play in street clothes on offense. It’s painful to watch.

Ya I want fiber out in Kearns as well. ****ing west valley has utopia for gods sake.

Me too. However, it’s crazy that they were both drafted in that same year and how Lebron is still performing at a high level while Melo is a bench player and Dwade has been out of the league now for a few years. I honestly have no idea how Lebron has stayed injury free and dominant for my entire adult life.

He was 4-6 from the line in game 1

Right? I have no idea why more cities didn’t jump into utopia when this began. I don’t know how these things work but it’s crazy to me that even Springville is getting Google Fiber while Lehi, alpine, and huge parts of SL county don’t have any great internet options. We live within 10-20 mins of Lehi tech companies and silicon slopes and the best internet we have is friggin Comcast. My wife looked it up and now we have High Speed Utah (is this good?). I had to stream the game tonight off my phone because the internet has been out since 2:30 this afternoon.

What internet do you have?

Oni made Buddy Hield look like De'Aaron Fox/Ja Morant in transition as he just got blown by in Kings 15-0 run, and some people here act like he's gonna get selected for NBA all defense one day. Just get rid of him already.

 

[fishonjazz]

Westbrick was 0-3 from the 3 point line and 3-8 from the free throw line lol

I’ve never seen a player give a team such instant juice. Maybe Jamal Crawford? Conley and Spida can be building homes and Clarkson can come in and explode for 20 in a quarter. I don’t think he could do his magic full time as a starter. But off the bench? He’s just amazing.
