Westbrook out and Harden doubtful vs. the Jazz

Nothing worse than a wounded animal, they’re a top team in the NBA so I expect em to put up a fight with or without superstars. Let’s get our game face on and crush these guys cause it’s tough sledding ahead.

A big win by the jazz over Westbrook and Harden could build momentum and let everyone know they are true contenders.

Maybe, but if we’re not getting respect being ahead of them in the standings... we won’t get it by beating a team that’s already been beat by more people than we have.
 
This is one of those cases where we have a tough back to back, so putting them away early would be useful. It would also put us a full 5 games ahead of them in the loss column.

It would also put us 3 games behind the Lakers as they head into a matchup with the Clippers.

But they’re not even close to a top team without Harden and Westbrook. The rest of the roster is probably a 20-25 win team over the course of a season. Don’t get me wrong, the Jazz need to keep focus, but with those two out, anything short of a win is a colossal choke job by the Jazz during a stretch in which they can’t really afford to lose one of the “gimmes”.

I don't think that they would cancel games. That would screw up the entire season. But it wouldn't surprise me if they rescheduled the games tomorrow. Yeah he was just a player but this has greatly impacted a lot of people.

The Jazz have a history of letdowns in gimme games. They do not have the luxury of overlooking anyone so hopefully they come out dialed in and put this one away by halftime.

The cancelling games thing was a rumor started on twitter. It was never even a consideration by the league in any way.

He's gonna play, and its OK. We are still going to roll him. Although Westbrick being out worries me a tad. . .
