Donovan going for 50 tonight.

So if we manage to win the series the media narrative will be "Jazz got lucky cause Kawhi was out for game 5". If Clippers win it rhey will praise them and nobody will care that Conley was out for at least 4 games.

Who the **** cares. When we win the title I don’t care what anyone says. Toronto’s still counts and Durant/Thompson were injured. Golden State’s still counts and Irving/Love were injured. That was in the Finals too not the semi-finals.

I mean he's been punching and grabbing dicks all series... not sure how much dirtier he can get unless he brings like brass knuckles or starts hitting guys in the back with folding chairs.

Zero excuse to lose tonight. Finish this Friday so we can start the PHX series ASAP if CP3 is out.

There's been no better time, but it's up to this team to make it happen.

Exactly.

Now, Jalen Rose reported earlier this morning that CP3 WAS vaccinated. So this probably will fall under the league's category of a reduced protocol.

But still, if the Jazz can close this thing out in 6, and force the WCF to start on Sunday, the Jazz likely will face the Suns WITHOUT CP3 on Sunday.

THEY HAVE TO TAKE ADVANTAGE. Force the Suns into a 1-0 hole, and make Game 2 a must win.

The Jazz AREN'T LOSING to a CP3-less Suns team in any scenario.

I’m not sure that Jalen Rose knows. I saw him say that but the way this is being reported I don’t think he is vaccinated.

CP3 is head of the Players Association. Jalen Rose is fairly well connected within the NBA.

The way he reported that seemed pretty "definitive" in terms of the way he said it. He wouldn't just throw something like that out on the air.

Now, if CP3 really isn't vaccinated... Welp. Too bad Suns. They will get swept in the WCF.
