Added to Calendar: 04-28-22

I don’t ever want to lose but I feel any extension of this series is going to delay changes going forward. I would rather avoid delay in fixing what is broken. And this team is ****ing broken.

Na. The only way this delays the inevitable is if Utah actually wins this series and advances to the semifinals. But if they win tomorrow and then lose in game seven, I don't see things playing out differently.

If anything saves this from blowing up, it was winning game four. If the Jazz lost four-straight for the second straight season (on top of losing three-straight vs Denver in 2020), I think that would have triggered a massive overhaul.

As is, I suspect the biggest change this off-season is Quin not returning. I still expect Rudy and Don to be back with a new coach, though if Utah somehow wins this series, I do think that saves Quin's job...if he wants to remain at Utah.
 
I am trying to be optimistic but considering the fact that we have now essentially had the exact same game plan for every game this series, and we have barely gotten where we are, I have a hard time seeing any kind of outcome much different than the last game. Unless somehow the lid comes off the basket and we have shots start falling for once. Historic meltdown this series from our "shooters". Maybe this game they figure out how to make some shots....as a wise man said once, we need makers, not shooters, we have plenty of shooters. But I am not holding my breath, that is for sure.

Don’t worry, we’ve played 5 poor games and all of them were flukes and outliers, so please appeal to the larger sample size of “historic offense.”

I hope that you somehow have the math wrong on that one - as if there's a snowball's chance that we could actually win this series! Sorry but I just can't stomach another year with Snyder at the helm. I know it sounds viscious and awful but Rudy and the boys ain't gettin any younger and I'd like to see what a good coach could do with them. Mitchell can stay or go AFAIC, but I do feel as though, unlike Rudy, he's actually slipping now, and easily replaceable. And Conley the same.

The only game that was really flukey was Game 5. We were literally 3-30 from 3 and they were damn near all wide open. Amazing looks.
 
I’ve been looking at some of the mock drafts and Utah does not have any draft picks this year what the hell is going on absolute shambles this team needs to be blown up straight away for good draft picks and start the rebuild which can be achieved within 3 years with trading Mitchell and gobert and tanking
