Of course hoping for a win, but not expecting one.

I’ve been meaning to go back and analyze last season. By memory, I would say the version of the Jazz you’re describing existed for maybe a 25 - 30 game stretch in a 72 game season, and I believe the competition level wasn’t as high due to matchups and injuries/COVID. Conley and Clarkson were...

Good is the enemy of great.

Let’s please stop the Bridges trade talks. From what I hear they are very high on him. Plus, he’s a restricted FA, so he would have to agree to a sign and trade. If he’s going to another team I’m guessing he’s not picking Utah. The sad truth is that a trade with Charlotte almost certainly...

I agree this would be interesting. it will be interesting to see how the Bulls do against the Bucks especially now that Middleton is out. Postseason success will probably tempt them to run it back, especially knowing they still have Ball coming back.

You and me both

I am completely and utterly dumbfounded by those who keep posting that they still think the Jazz will win this series. What team have you been watching for the last two months?

Agreed. I hope he gets back on the court as soon as possible. The psychological pressure of playing a team they are “supposed” to beat is probably too much for this team.

It really is amazing the Jazz have made no adjustments from last year. None. That is either incredible hubris or a sign of an organization-wide sense of helplessness.

Glad they got the win. Also glad they experienced the Mavs making that run and holding them off. They need to exorcise that demon.

This seems like a strange take given the collapse we just had against a Curry-less Warriors a few days ago. That said, I don’t feel great about our chances against a Luka-less Mavs team either so that probably tells you where my opinion is on this team right now.

Yeah, I wish I felt that way. But I’ve watched this team lose to much worse teams this year, as well as barely beat a Luka-less Mavs on Christmas.

Great, now we get to the experience the Jazz get eliminated by a team without its best player two years in a row…

I don’t think it matters. I am expecting a quick playoff exit either way.

I don’t think Mitchell and VanFleet make much sense for the Raptors. Siakam is awesome and I have wanted him in Utah a long time. I was hoping he would be available after they drafted Barnes, but with how well he is playing right now I don’t see the Raptors trading him. Maybe a poor showing in...

Everyone thought Paul was washed. His contract was viewed as a negative asset, and he then led the Thunder to the playoffs and the Suns to the finals. It probably shouldn't have been given how young Mitchell is, but the Jazz roster is built for win-now. Blowing it up and trading everyone...

Tell the Phoenix Suns that.

I’ve said it before, my best-case scenario for a Mitchell trade is Dame. Jazz are essentially getting the more mature, clutch, Utah-loving version of Donovan who also happens to be taller and a better passer, and fits that timeline perfectly. Only real concern is how many years he wants on his...

No way Atlanta trades Young.

15 games lost with double digit leads in the second half. Well, that certainly validates what it has felt like to be a Jazz fan this year… Do you think there is any other coach in the league who would see his team fall apart in the same way 15 times and not at least experiment with a different...
