We took care of our Western Conference business. Let the Eastern conference providing uplifting support and victories for each other.

Freaking Oscar almost single handedly ruined the tank. Great coaching by Hardy to give him the hook.

Keyonte has being playing so well that he’s made me reconsider my thoughts on him.

 

[fishonjazz]

Is it painted on?

That's what I was thinking.
It looks insane. I have no idea what is going on with it

Didn’t he paint his hair on once?

I think he did.

Did I fever dream a guy named Collier was playing for us? Flip has been good, but Collier has been great for a rookie.

Bigger role =\= playing better. Collier is playing well and putting up numbers, but realistically it’s been in kind of a fake role that’s only available to him because we’re tanking. Collier has shown the most potential and is likely the best prospect going forward, but out of all the rookies, Flip has shown the most ability to succeed in a real NBA role. If we’re just picking the guy who could help and actual NBA team win today it’s Flip.

Besides, Collier was awful that first part of the season while Flip has been more consistent throughout the year.

Ok @idiot is right

(An important matter of sub text is that individual regular season games basically don’t matter at all.)

Juzang 1-7 from 3. And the misses were not close. Tank game ball goes to Johnny!

Yeah, I was thinking this, too.

When the Jazz play the Wizards you got to pull Keyonte as well

Not when you factor in defense. Don't try to be too big brained here. Collier has had the best net impact on quality basketball.

It’s an all-out sprint to the bottom. If they can lose both games to the Wizards, bottom of the standings is achievable.
