Time for the Rockets to get blasted by the Jazz! ***Official Game Thread***

Didn't watch his but damn, looks like Terrence Jones owned Favors and Kanter. If he turns into an all star Houston might just have a dynasty. Need a top 3 pick so bad.

One of the picks in the Al Jefferson/Koufous trade turned out to be the Jones pick. Like I say a lot, you just don't give away number picks. I always find it funny how a lot of proposed trades, Jazz fans are just willing to throw 2 or 3 picks into it.

I am not surprised that we got be badly in Houston. The Texas triangle has killed the Jazz this past decade. I know everyone thinks the Jazz are just going to get Parker or Wiggins or Embiid and then they will be contenders but it isn't going to be that easy especially if our Core5 are not as good as we hope.

I am neutral on Ty but it is a game like this where I am ready to jump on the fire bandwagon simply because at this point Williams/Jefferson shouldn't be playing as much. The Jazz need to bring in a coach from outside of the organization who is going to play the best players regardless of seniority.

I don't understand the Jeremy Lin hate, he was ball'n in NYC and they got rid of him because Crymelo didn't want him getting all the attention. Yes his last year is a lot but for 5 million I would take him on the Jazz. He can get in the lane pretty much at will and he passes the ball and can shoot it decently.

The Western Conference playoffs are going to be brutal and unfair to the WCF winner. I think it is time for the league to reseed all the playoff teams because Miami and Indy are going to have a pretty easy time. Chicago will be a tough out but no Rose and Toronto might win a game or two. Brooklyn is playing better but they are very beatable.

After tonight the Jazz seem a lot further away from contending then most of us think. The Jazz absolutely have to hit HRs with both picks or bring in some real vets. Maybe it is time to consider moving Kanter or Hayward.

Games like this make you wonder how talent we do have. Two #3s, two 9's and a 12 and this is the best we can do? Couldn't be coaching could it?

i never once considered mchale a good coach. his x's and o's can be painful to watch. this is a talent league. we would do better if we had guys like harden who can create his own shot at will. we just look like bunch of role players put together. we need our lead dog.

Jones was the 21 st pick. As pointed out the jazz have two top three picks, two nines and a 12. I'm not sure the jazz would get a top three pick right.
 
I torture myself too much. I watch the game. Afterwards I catch up on the game via Twitter. Once that's done income here to read about the game one more time. I guess you could call me a masochist.

They've been doing this since the fall.

Jazz defense? Wonderful. Good thing Ty Corbin isn't supposed to be judged on that!

They're playing all-star defense. Spurs shot 65% last night, IINM, and Rockets shot 58% tonight. This team is so bad there's actually a chance to lose a home game to Orlando or Detroit.
 
The game was over even though there was still time on the clock, and the kids wanted me to read to them so I turned the game off and missed JLIii vs Garcia real time.

The replay clips shows some disappointing scenes. Despondent jazz players not even noticing a teammate who just got punked and is about to get crushed by a much bigger opponent or some random rocket fan who is inexplicably on the court.

This team could use some mean.

Unfortunately we picked up our 3 and two 9's in some of the weakest drafts in history. As for the other #3, he was already judged to be an underachieving prospect and that's why NJ was willing to let him go. Wouldn't surprise me if our #23 in this draft turns out to be more valuable than 3/5 of the "core" we currently have.
 
It doesn't help that our two #3 picks play the same position, or that Hayward can't play sf so the 9 &12 pick play the same position too.

Doesn't get easier for the jazz....Wednesday in Memphis. Grizzlies are 7-2 in March, and have been resting since Saturdays 30 pt beating of the 76ers.

Hopefully Lucas isn't suspended for the game.
