GT: Mavericks at Jazz, THE BIG GAME

To fight Goddammit. To fight.

I want to fight too, but I also want us to look like we belong. The sad fact is if we go into a 7 game series vs any playoff team without Gobert and Favors playing at a respectable level our team is going to look like absolute horse ****.
 
Hard to root against success when we got this close. I kind of agree, but come Wednesday at 6pm I'll be rooting for the Kings pretty hard.

So will I, but I'm also trying to cope with the disappointment. This seems like the best strategy for that.
 
LOL Matt thinking Houston could lose that game.

I'm sorry Houston gave us our chance, they were basically left for dead, and we rose them from the grave by losing that Clips game. They won't mess up their 2nd chance at life.

Weren't we a 95% chance to make the playoffs according to projections at one point? Of course projections didnt see Gobert getting injured and Favors hobbling like a gimp, but damn.
 
At this point if we made the playoffs I would just fully expect Hood or Hayward to tear an ACL game 1.

and the projections didn't see us losing a game at home to a team resting 5 starters.
 
FUUUUUU I just thought back on the sequence when we were down 2 and Hayward pulled up for a running 3, misses, and then freakin Wes buries a contested 3 in our faces.
 
Why does anyone want to make the playoffs with a gimpy Favors and an injured Gobert?

Because 4 asskickings is super duper experience. If it wasn't for the beat down we took against the Spurs back with Alsap, Hayward and Favors wouldn't be the well-seasoned players we see before us, and might even freeze up under pressure.
 
Snyder would make an amazing assistant coach tbh. great player developer, good rapport, specializations. he's just not as prepared with schemes and in-game management as i would like

Best post of the season IMHO!

Time to bring some coaches from Europe! There are too many incompetent and inexperienced in Nba nowadays!
 
This game showed the massive difference between Hood and Hayward.

Both had awful shooting games, but Hayward can still manage to be efficient and get points, rebounds, and assist. When Hood ****s the bed with his 3pt shot it's typically an ugly sight to see.

Interesting stat on Hood: He has had more games below 9 points than games 20 points or over.

Yikes. That's a scary statistic.
 
From what I understand he, Gay, and Cousins won't travel with the team.

Of course not. They only played all 3 games against us, played hard, beat us twice, but now they're going to rest against the Rockets. Makes sense. Gotta stay fresh for that opening game on Nov 1st. NBA for you.
