Game 5: Termination Game -- Jazz @ Thunder 4/25/2018 7:30 pm MST

I'm grateful for tonight. The Jazz have a team that can legitimately compete for a championship soon. But championship teams must learn to experience and eventually recover from adversity. DM, Gobert, and Ingles are here long term, and Rubio abd Crowder should be back next year. Even if the Jazz lose in 7 to the Thunder, I won't be upset, since all I really care about is being entertained and most importantly the Jazz winning a championship in the next 5 years. This could be a good experience for them in the long run.

Winning this searies is > losing this series though. By far.
 
Suffice it to say, but Friday's game is a must win.

Cmon, at best the OKC would be 60% to win game 7. The jazz have been far better than the Thunder going all the way back to January, and they already won there in this series. They also won 15ish games in a row on the road during that stretch. Certainly the home game is the best chance to win the series but they would still have a solid chance if it goes to 7.
 
Wow! I didn't realize chicken little had sooo many siblings. It was a terrible collapse but it'll be alright. We close out at home much the joy of 19,000 plus fans and our boys get to bask in the glory.
I sure hope the players don't think this way because this is how teams lose games and playoff series. The Thunder not taking the Jazz seriously is a significant reason why the Jazz have had so much success in this series, and it's a big reason the roster of the Thunder has underachieved.

Assuming victory is ****ing poison.
 
What time is the game on Friday have 10:45 infinity war tickets and assumed I was in the clear. Can’t beleive how badly this night has been ruined.

I walked to a park and now I’m sad at a park

Hopefully the game won't go into overtime so you don't miss the movie.
 
Every single thought and post has been about not looking toward the future or assuming anything. I was steadfast in always closing out hard, and never trusting a lead.

And then I just felt so confident that caution was thrown to the wind. And this ********:

We’re up by 25 on a team that has quit.

It could not have coincided more perfectly. It’s like the Jazz mindset completely matched my own.

Please delete my account and blame me for the loss.

Game 2 was the first win in OKC in years though. Very tough to win there twice in a series, especially if OKC has momentum going into it. I give us a 25% chance if they are on roll going into it. Must win Friday.
 
So I think this puts RW into hero mode. Historically that is good. You can guarantee Quinn is planning to exploit it.
 
Tbh this is the worst type of loss UTA could have got as it has the potential to carry over to the game six and turn the series around. Good news is UTA basically pounded OKC in two games at Vivint. So this confidence along with the crowd's support will set them back on track and they'll finish OKC off in a convincing fashion.

RW hero mode can win on any given night, and then there is George.

We had them right we're we wanted.

Rudy did choke that 5th foul away.
