Trail Blazers @ Jazz 8:30 PM MT: THE LOSING STREAK ENDS TONIGHT

[enchilada_style]

garbage win

 

[The Thriller]

He made the go ahead layup so...

but he shot 6-16 for only 16 pts. He’s not looking very good as of late.

 

[MilesDeep]

While it was a goaltend that layup was about to miss badly anyway. So call it a justice. We needed a break.

Probably why it wasn’t called, it was going to be at least 6 inches away from the rim.

 

[MeloTheJazzKiller]

I ain't crying. Melo's team won.
Worst call in sports history. Worse than the Russians vs. USA in '72.

 

[Hekate]

I thought at first that Gobert didn't touch it because why the **** would the refs not call that? Probably didn't want the OT

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

I ain't crying.

Why would I cry? Melo's team won. He's a Jazz killer.

The refs took away the final Portland basket.

Jazz would have had the ball with 8+ seconds. Gobert was going to dunk at the buzzer. Don't worry about it.

 

[Elizah Huge]

We’re only 3 games out of 2nd place and 6 games out of 1st. Still a lot of basketball to be played. We REALLY needed this win. Hopefully it can be the start of us turning it around.

 

[LoPo]

Second half we got a rough whistle I thought... I don’t think it was egregious though... I just think that crew had a bad night.

Definitely. It was clear to me that the crew knew they couldn't call Portland players for reaches, illegal screens, etc due to their 7 players. Swanigan was reckless out there with no calls.

That type stuff isn't massive, but it irks me. I absolutely hate it when refs don't call fouls for whatever reason. A foul is a foul regardless of situation.

But we won. Hell yeah

Everyone here was overreacting to our 5 game streak. Gobert's allowed to goaltend, championship incoming bitches

The refs took away the final Portland basket.

NEWSFLASH: only would have tied the game. Jazz would have had the last shot.

 

[MeloTheJazzKiller]

It’s a loss on paper .

Yeah, but it was a win on the court.
That's where it counts.

You lost. Face it.
Melo the Jazz killer killed your season. You now realize your team is nothing without help from the refs.

 

[LoPo]

I ain't crying. Melo's team won.
Worst call in sports history. Worse than the Russians vs. USA in '72.

I forgot that a goal tend is worth 3 points.

Good game. Good win.

See, I was right. If they had sat Melo the rest of the game they would have won. But they insisted on letting him play so they lose, as usual.

 

[fargon_sneaky_bastage]

Leave it to the Jazz lately to win in way that still feels like losing.

I posted three pages back that Melo will have the game winning shot and I am never wrong. That's what would have happened if that ref didn't go blind. OT and Melo the Jazz killer gets the game winner. You know that's true.

 

[Thee Idiotic Minivan K]

Okay. NOW blame the refs. That was egregious. Portland got robbed

No more egregious than the obvious travel by Mario that turned into a Trent three. If the refs had been doing their job on that play, then that last play wouldn’t have mattered unless there is a 5 point play, bitch!!

That had to be a makeup call for something.

My post above

Oh and we got away with one of the most obvious goaltends I’ve ever seen.

They got away with a lot too so....

 

[Avery]

Melo the Jazz killer saved your season. You now realize your team is nothing without help from Melo.

FTFYMF

 

[LoPo]

Honestly, how, in this age of technology, is that missed call possible? I know refs can suck and are biased as hell, but how is there no mechanism in place to fix a clear goal tend?

Your an idiot if you think that you stupid defeatist idiot.

Embarrassing to see our guys celebrating honestly

Dude what? We just ended a 5-game losing streak. They have every right to celebrate. We’ve been on the other side of some horrible calls.
