Gamethread: Jazz Vs Knicks, "Luck is overrated when you got kanter" 18-03 at 2030

I thought this team peaked with Houston. I can't believe they keep cobbling together worse and worse losses.

 

[hhhhkau]

can someone reignite the ty-meme thread? we gonna need some cheering up.

 

[DutchJazzer]

Stay the course.

There's no reason to intentionally tank

 

[The Thriller]

The funny thing is, our defense wasn't any worse than usual. The difference is, we were playing a bunch of no namers and old timers who could still shoot. Oh, and this game was nationally televised. LOL. But consider what Mo and Big Al have normally done and tonight wasn't any different.

 

[Litany]

Just gotta continue to work and get better.

 

[The Thriller]

There's no reason to intentionally tank

Um. Yeah there is.

Get a higher draft pick! Duh!

Or do you still want to see this garbage against the Spurs or Thunder in 4 quick boring games?

The Jazz just have to try to win, and the losses will come, one game at a time.

I'm hoping Dragonzord will come through.

 

[NUMBERICA]

Exactly. Just stay the course. We'll get there, and that is this team's best chance at building a contender.

 

[nightmare3983]

woosh

Indeed.

 

[The Norm]

I wish Mo would just quit basketball.

 

[CAKAR]

Maybe we would win, giving the shots to AL, Mo took by himself late in the game.

 

[The Thriller]

Big al needs to chuck more. Then we will be unstoppable

I'm watching the replay and Earl still scored a basket in the first quarter. Seriously. I just double-checked the box score.

This is a healthy loss. Now it is completely clear that Mo Williams can't run an offense and Al Jefferson can't run a defense.

Who was it saying that Al was shutting down Kurt Thomas?

Lol what? Kurt Thomas went on a tear when Al was resting. You can't blame him. He shut down Thomas essentially all by himself.
As of the offense Jefferson won the match up with KT. 10 pts 11 reb (double-double!!) against 6 and 3 for Thomas. So Al delivered on both ends of the floor.
This loss is clearly on the bench players.

That there is some real talent. I mean shutting down an overweight senior citizen is just great news and a big stepping stone for Alberts budding defensive game.

6 points on 5 shots is better than 10 points on 13 shots. Big Al also got abused by Copeland.
