I have an image that at least should make people smile. In spoiler because it’s NSFW.

Does he have teh herpes?
 
clarkson 1-10 from 3. lots of them off the bounce
 
we are now 6-8 in clutch games. Tell me something isn't wrong. It's easy to be together when you're up 20.
Bro we have teh historic offense! We just won 8 in a row! Record in clutch games is totally irrelevant!!1
 
Wonder what Danny Ainge is thinking right now...
He's going to want to move Rudy immediately since we don't have enough scoring and Rudy can't guard all the perimeter players.
 
It's official, we just broke an all time NBA record for most jump balls lost by a taller player that immediately resulted in a game deciding 3 pointer.
 
I’m curious how the team would respond to Danny Ainge chants at the next game.
 
Well this weekend sucked. Jazz lose two home games against teams they should beat, byu loses a game that I think was played in some version of hell to a team they should beat, and I have been at work the whole time.
Im going fishing tomorrow morning. Hopefully I have fun and catch some fish and dont die or something
 
Suns and Warriors aren’t losing games like this. That’s the difference.
Watching the Suns in the clutch is just something else. They value the hell out of each and every possession, move the ball extremely well, and work damn hard to get a good shot off. The Jazz just settle for garbage and the ball movement completely dies.

It's fascinating. By almost every metric, the stats would paint the Jazz as the superior team. But what the stats don't track is that the Suns are hard as hell to beat in the clutch, whereas the Jazz are very miserable in those same situations.

And the problems aren't that difficult to identify - it's mind-blowing to me that nothing has been done to fix it. This has been a years-long issue.
