[latin jazz]

Portland has only held one opponent to under 100 all season.

This is pathetic.

What we're seeing right now is the Jazz really displaying the exact same levels of mental toughness that enabled them to blow a 3-1 lead.

Or what we are seing is a tired team at the end of a compacted season playing without their 2 all-stars for the last 3 weeks, which is putting more pressure on the other guys.

Can you imagine what Portland would look like without Dame and CJ?

passed up 3 open 3s on that posession

lol, Houston scored 129 against Portland recently, with over half their team dead.

They'd still be better than the Kings and Knicks

Awful shooting night and scoreless for four minutes. This baby is over.

 

[jazzVA]

My gawd we can’t get scrubs better than Forrest and Thomas? All but a couple sucking it up tonight. Where’s Ilyasova and Hughes?

 

[bopahull]

Bring in the scrubs

 

[Rubashov]

Jesus wept. pull the the starters

So, because a bad team scored tons of points on them, that means we are not tired?. That Portland wouldn't be more motivated against the top seed? You can't really give credit to the team, which, despite missing their two all-stars, are still fighting. Even a freakin rookie is getting major minutes. We are shorthanded and it's obvious we are going to struggle against a good team like Portland. We lack firepower.

When we struggle, you become really toxic.

And the towel has been thrown in

We literally have the 3rd best offensive rating in the entire NBA over the last two weeks. Saying we don't have firepower is just being deliberately obtuse.
