    Definition of Jazz noun a type of music of black American origin which emerged at the beginning of the 20th century, characterized by improvisation, syncopation, and usually a regular or forceful rhythm. Brass and woodwind instruments and piano are particularly associated with jazz, although...

    Width, interchangeability and synergy among starters, depth of the bench, and the spirit within the whole team... (Should I call it 'Esprit de corps'?) ...under innovative and brave coach! Wow!

    He apparently visited the last game thread and red few comments about him.

    Forgive my Lauri-glasses, but Jazz game stagnated from the moment he went to the bench.

    Entertaining and good flowing 1st period. Lauri's threes are still off, otherwise there are nothing to whine about his effort level this far.

    Yep. But that was not the history's best sax solo if we are fully honest.

    So, according the trade rumors metagame situation for this game leads to few lines of thought. A) Jazz is not going to throw this game B) Jazz guys who should demonstrate their value upon the eyes of eager buyers (of LA slave market) will play their arses off, but only because they don't want...

    My only tattoo is the text 'No CPR' (Ei elvytetä) tattooed on my heart. I can understand. Even a joke.

    I have absolutely no idea what place you possibly call your home. But that was not the point either, there was nothing personal, only stating few factual things under a label of 'non-superstitious drunken Finnish guy posting from the woods while waiting a game of basketball to begin at far side...

    You're mistaken. So called 'Forest Finns' (a Finn descent posting from the woods) are from Sweden, as in Finland we traditionally don't have to make that difference - uh maybe some Urban Helsinki metro-dudes, yay - as nowhere in the Finland, inhabited by Finns, the forest is too long a way. You...

    First. I don't believe to any kind jinxes, not in sports or in life in general. Second. Logic dictates here that if its all about partying in LA and too much time spent there, then it is the game to Lakers to lose. :D

    Lauri Markkanen Hype & Appreciation Thread

    Your take on Lauri seems to be rather similar what I've perceived over years, though I have only occasionally watched his games. There have been that weird changing curve in his consistency, it's clear. One night he can be and act like total stud, and next night almost disappearing altogether...

    @fishonjazz and @MT Steve Please dudes, let it end. You both are now in a loop of unconstructive debate with each other leading to nothing good. +/- and free throw stats are what they are and their usefulness depends a lot of context they are talked against. +/- stat's (for individual player)...

    Hey guys, are people in these forums always arguing with each others in a way that borderlines as attacks on a person, not to what he/she say? Or is that only because of frustration of the lost match? I assume every member here are Jazz fans anyway, thus infighting seems to me rather weird...

    Btw, Are Markkanens' family still living in a hotel, or do they have already proper housing for more permanent stay? Off topic maybe, but RL things can easily impact to a things, particularly with two small children.

    Positive thing is that it was still team effort even it came little bit short in the end. My impression was that there was too much forcing in scoring situations from almost every guy. Backwards passes to second waves were not utilized properly, and generally whole passing game was somehow...

    Not too familiar yet with players to comment too deeply, but what is clear, Lauri's 3-pointers are atypically off. 0-4 tonight, and it looked like he himself surrendered to that fact too when he had few chances more to try, instead trying to do something else. Furthermore, he spend too much time...

    Yeah. Frustrating to watch. Game doesn't meet my expectations. If I would've known I wouldn't woke up for this. Anyway, Go Jazz! Go!
