Jazz at Spurs Jan 6th 2016 Will There Be A Miracle?

Is Kahwi Leonard the guy who is guarding him? If so, Hayward will have a terrible game.

Leonard and Hayward are about the same age (Leonard is one year younger) and they both came into the league the same time. So if the Jazz have championship aspirations, we will have to get over the San Antonio "hurdle" one day, and Kawhi will be in Hayward's way every single time. Depressing...

Gotta play a full game in which I'm not sure we are capable of doing. We've done it before, but it's tough when your team is sitting on the bench hurt.

There will be a miracle if Utah stays within ten.

What the hell is wrong with Favors?

His back hurts, where have you been?

No, Hayward came in a year before. Leonard shouldn't be that big of a problem. The Jazz are building a team, not a Hayward only thing. Exum/Hood/Favors develop to take pressure off Hayward and elite individual defenders won't bother Utah as much.

Should be a ridiculously easy win. DL will need to blow this team up if they can't even win at San Antonio.

I don't think anyone has mentioned but Parker and Aldridge are sitting this one out.

I mentioned Parker earlier but I didn't know LA was sitting too. I like our chances a little more.

With Parker and LMA out I like our chances, could be an upset on the cards but as long as we play the full 48mins and don't fall asleep

You like our chances? You gotta realize Mills and Diaw/West aren't slouches. This team is amazing, Jazz will have to play nearly perfect with 2nd and 3rd stringers. A win would be absolutely insane.

Anybody ready for a Tibor vs Boban matchup?

The 37-point loss at SAS was the worst of the season for the Jazz. Hayward says, "We remember it.... We’ll come out with a lot more energy.”


And some tweets from a SAS beat writer

Pop on Utah's Snyder: "He's been in games vs. teams much more talented, w/ all the guys he's got out, & they come & compete every night."

More Pop on Snyder-led Jazz: "They are detailed. They execute. He keeps the same standards & demands...They have responded very well to him.

Pop on Jazz: "Even though it's been a tough go w/ all the injuries, they're still getting better & the program is solid, one to be respected
