Jazz intentionally foul another Suns player to prevent Devin Booker from scoring 60 points - CBSSpor

It isn't jimmers fault though. I think what you mean is this is why you have a problem with byu fans being dumb.

If fans liking jimmer makes you hate the guy (not saying this is you personally btw) then that's a bit silly.

I don’t hate the guy. I have a problem with his existence as a basketball player in the broader context of being a fan of basketball in Utah.

I was and would otherwise be rooting for the guy. These ****ing Jimmer groupies though... Christ.

I have a problem with this particular incident not the team in general. I love this team too. I know it's petty and does nothing but I'm just going to take a few games off in my own protest. Morally I think the players are in the wrong here.

Don’t come back. Rooting for winners is obviously bad for you.

People were having fun with it. It was good natured, almost sarcastic, ribbing and encouragement. We were up 30 flipping points.

This. After the first miss and turnover, it was a meme at that point. Everyone around me was yelling sarcastically to give the ball to Jimmer, and lost their **** when he had the ball. It was the most entertaining 30 point blow out I've ever seen live or on TV by a huge margin. The players can be bothered by it and would be justified. However, I'd say to them that we dont mean anything by it and it was more of a joke than anything. It kinda comes with the territory. Ultimately, we cheered the loudest for Chick-fil-A. This game was crazy. A ****-show worth every cent.

Be our emissary to the players.
 
As an outsider, this outlandish love relationship with a fringe NBA player seems odd and kind of cringey. I get that the guy is a hometown hero of sorts but that was years ago and doesn't merit the kind of hysteria we saw last night. Not even Stockton, Malone or Coach Sloan elicit that kind of reaction. And it's not the case that this is the first time he was in the building, he was cheered before, but not at this level. As many others have said, it was weird, but in a cringey and WTF way.

The game scenario played a part. If it wasn't a blowout then it would have been more like other times jimmer had played in Utah...... I think.

This isn't the first time, though. I remember another time Jimmer played here with the Kings where the same **** happened, but in the middle of the game, not after a blowout.

I'm done.

Exactly. The first half he got his ovation and it was pretty standard. The 4th quarter when most fans would leave, up by 30, is when people started playing into it. As I've said it was all in good fun nothing more.

I was obviously pissy about it at first but whatever I'm over it. I'm going the snowflakes be snowflakes
