Winning a championship in 2017 > winning regular season games in 2013

This is what it takes for the Jazz to win a game:

Gordon Hayward, 27/5reb/10ast, on 6/12 from the floor, 3/5 from 3-pt. and 12/14 from the ft line.

Enes Kanter, 21/10/3blks on 8/10 from the field and 5/6 from the line.

Derrick Favors, 12/12/2blk/5stls on 5/7 from the field.

Richard Jefferson, 22 pts. on 7/11 from the field and 3/4 from 3-pt.

Marvin Williams, 12/9 on 5/9 from the field and 2/4 from 3-pt.

...and the Jazz win by 6 on their home court against the sub-.500 NOLA Pelicans who are playing back-to-back on the road.

Any other situation, the Jazz lose.

haha yes, they played like their life depended on it. Damned, we shoot 9-22 from 3. And RJ is not scoring 22 or more anytime soon. We will lose a lot...

Right? The tank is still on its tracks people. This was the biggest gimme game of the year and the Jazz struggled to pull out the win. Meanwhile all the other tank platoons have been scoring wins they shouldn't have gotten.

Yeah but normal teams don't have to compensate for a midget that goes 0-7 with 2 turnovers and 0 assists.

Exactly. That's why this year should be called "Resistance Training."

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Our PGs got outscored 38-8 and all this other production was required to make up for it.

 

[Deleted member 848]

Nah, I wouldn't have gotten cold feet with the tank and done something like sign someone who can actually play the PG position.

I think we are missing how much we stunt the development of our players when they're playing with JLIII, for an enormous amount of reasons. I understand not wanting to get 8th sees-- but you are simply stunting the development, and motivation, and pride in this franchise when you force players to play with ****ing John Lucas the Third. How Hayward didn't request a trade during those first 8 games is beyond me.

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Props to the Kings for blowing out the Nets tonight.

 

[nightmare3983]

OK, now that the first W is out of the way, I'll be totally cool with some even longer losing streaks as the season goes on.

 

[Joe Bagadonuts]

First game that I watched live this season and we won. I think it's me.

From now on you are only allowed to watch our games against Golden State... and maybe Miami.

We were down 16 at one point. Yeesh. I'm happy for the guys tonight.

 

[♪alt13]

Pelicans legs failed them in the second half. Don't anyone read too much into this w.

It's not like it was going to last forever. A few more weeks of JL3 before Burke comes back would not have ruined our core for all eternity, I promise you.

Didn't look like it to me, actually. They were hitting some big shots, playing decent defense.

I'm sure they were feeling it, but they still put up a fight. Good things from this win: we were down 16, we had to close it out with free throws, etc. I liked it.

watch it again and notice how many jump shots came up short. That's legs.

 

[Tarkanian]

0-82 baby! woot woot!
(Tark checks the boxscore)

****!

 

[b_line]

I don't think you guys get how big this is.

This was the first win of the youth movement. The first of many, and it is a huge turning point.

They now know they can beat somebody. They don't suck.
