Game 1: Utah Jazz @ Los Angeles Lakers, 8:30 p.m MT..Game Thread

[IBProfane]

Devin Harris looks like absolute dogs@#* on the defense end. Fisher BLOWS by him, then Kobe obliterates him. What the hell?

Fun could lose by more points then they score

 

[Stifle Tower]

So what is the record for fewest pts scored in the modern era (i.e. after the shot clock was instituted?). Jazz may have a challenge getting to 50 pts.

Why is Bell in the game?? I don't understand it. We won games last year with CJ and Hayward starting. At least start Josh Howard and Hayward, and bury Bell on the bench.

Bell is a disease to this team and Ty the basketcase has no idea what's going on.

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Bell is lucky to be in the league.

 

[Revolution 9]

Fisher just breezed past Harris for the and-one layup. Discuss.

Bring back Fisher.

CJ hasn't not demonstrated that he deserves to be out there tonight. Burks should be out there getting some crucial development time. The game is not in question. If Fesenko (or Koufos or Araujo or whoever) were on this team, it would be time to put them in and show Jefferson that his minutes are not guaranteed--and those backups would like do better than a disinterested, shorter AJ.

Corbin is much to blame. Al is obviously struggling with a capital S. Corbin is making no adjustments. It's like he's playing around with his I-phone on the sidelines.

wow, what a pathetic performance...I'm getting a headache watching this crap.

 

[//r00t 4 Jazz]

This suck is a total team effort to reach this level of suck no one player or coach is responsible for this level of sucktitude.

 

[Mr. McGibblets]

I just do not understand what coaches could possibly see that justifies giving Raja more than 5 minutes a game. I just don't get it. He looks the exact same as he did last year: clanked jumpers and mediocre/bad D.

And Al, goodness. When he is bad, he is bad. Embarrassing.

Embarrassing display tonight so far. Al is playing like a little girl who is afraid to initiate contact. Harris is letting Fisher leave him in his dust. Embarrassing.
