Celtics, Bucks, Heat, Sixers, Clippers, then Hornets, then Lakers coming up. Celtics have lost four of their last six. Conley is still out.


Line: Jazz -4.5
 
Well, with Conley out and Kemba in, this would be a game that I think it's appropriate to see Shaq for a bit. I don't think we will, but we should.
 
I think we might have sore legs as well, but a 30 point blowout of the Celtics would be capital.

Kemba has kinda been sucking lately. With Smart out, and Brown questionable, I think you shut down Tatum and goad Kemba into hero ball.

Kemba has torched us in the past... he's the exact kind of guard we don't want no problems with. I don't know that Shaq is the answer versus Kemba but we might see him or Forrest (didn't he get recalled) for a minute or two. Most likely its Miye but I think Kemba will cook him.
 
This is a Rudy game imo... if we win it. He gives us 18-20 and I think we win. Need to get the inside stuff going since they are small on the interior.

I think this will require the 3-headed snake, or the snake with 3 backs maybe? Hmm.

Anyway, Gobert, Mitchell, and Bogie all need somewhat big games here to guarantee the win. I think they are all key. I expect Bogie to go for 20+, Mitchell to be 25+, and Gobert to produce yet another 15/15/3 game.

This made me think, you know the Jazz are the basketball embodiment of Hydra. Cut off one head, and 2 shall take its place. Shut down one 3-pt shooter and 2 others will step up to bury you.

CANNOT BE STOPPED! HAIL HYDRA!

Kemba is shooting 35% from the floor, 30% from three averaging 4 assists a game. He ain't Kemba from 3 years ago.

This is exactly the kind of guy that can go off and put up insane numbers all of a sudden. Cannot underestimate.

I like your zeal. I'm still a long-hauler.

Utah teams, imo, lose their heads when they're on top, and just don't know how to live one day at a time. Yes, win this one, for sure. One day at a time.

Psychology of endomorphics and other chemical affecters drives euthoria and depression. Just don't set your mind so that you getdepressed of over one loss, then drop ten because of the broken bubble.

Any team can beat any other team on any given day. That's why we play the games.

Jazz have the second most difficult schedule of the currently scheduled games. If they are leading the league, or even 3rd or 4th at the all-star break, the will get the 1 seed, barring catastrophic injury.

No guard has really done that to us for be a long while now. They might get us for a half, but the Jazz have pretty much shut that down over the entirety of a game.
