Jazz @ Kings 3/22/12 8PM MT Game Thread

Al another tip in game winner. Is there anyone in the league that gets more of those then him? Also props to Hayward and Burks, if not for those two Al doesn't get the game winner.

I'm not a fan of this win folks....

For one, it's a one point win against the Kings. Why do we play DOWN to the level of our competition? I get it, we can't play with the same intensity that we had against the Heat and Lakers every single night. But come on, there were times when we just weren't executing or focusing.

Secondly, Favors only got 21 minutes... He was down right dominate defensively. Despite playing fewer minutes than Jefferson, he did register more rebounds and blocks.

Thirdly, CJ has reverted back to his jumpshooting (not attacking the basket) ways. Sigh...

Lastly, Big Al and Paul didn't get to the FT line. Ummmm.... You do this against 90 % of the league, you lose.

So yay, it will register as a W. But tonight wasn't winning basketball IMO.... Too many jumpers, sloppy defense, no Favors when it counted, terrible offensive execution in the 4th, and bigs weren't rebounding or getting to the FT line...

I'm more of your way of thinking but am happy that it says W. Corbin has to have the balls to say X-player is playing better this game, and Millsap should have been the odd man out. Kanter sucked by the way!

Kings are good home team.

They have killed Dallas, Memphis, Boston, and Minnesota this month. They are not an easy team to beat, especially of late.
 
Sacramento was at home coming off a 3 game streak including 2 against playoff teams. They brought everything they had and we had a little more even with an imperfect game. This stuff matters and winning games like this is a big deal. This is how teams learn how to win.

the fact the game winner doesnt make you feel better shows, as per normal haters, that it is more important to you to seem right, than for the jazz to win. sad, but usual around here.

False.

I don't feel good about this game. We won, so yipee. But I saw some things that I didn't like. Mainly, too many jumpers, poor offensive execution, bad rebounding, and our starting frontline didn't get to the FT line once.

Favors and Hayward were very dominant defensively today.

Besides Hayward getting that 3 drained in his face for having his hand down on a chucker. And giving Evans an And 1 in crunch time. Other than that he did do pretty good, but he let some big baskets get scored in crunch time.
 
C'mon, thriller. A win is a win. Sacramento is tough at home and Cousins and Thompson are beasts inside.
The Jazz kept a 10 pt lead until they got tight in the 4th quarter. Sure it was ugly. But it was a pressure situation. They could have easily folded when Sac took the lead. But the boys battled hard.
