Another must lose game. Portland is barely clinging to play in life. The Jazz need to reward them.

Kessler out, Collier questionable with Hamstring Soreness. Collins, Harkless, KJ Martin and Lauri out.

These last three games are the most important in team history lose out and we are assured a top 5 pick

I don't think of them as the most important in team history. Bulls vs Jazz in the finals were far more important.
We have all but iced 6th worst at the very least. I think management is will quietly flex their muscles behind the scenes.

Washington plays Philadelphia starting at 5p MST. We'll get to see how that's playing out before worrying about tonight's game with Portland.
Probably not the right place for this, but POR is one of the few good destinations for a Lauri trade. They’re going to be feeling good about themselves after this close, they don’t have money issues, they’ve got good matching salary, and they’ve got assets (though their owed pick protection is tricky). They have forgone the tank route, so trading for a player like Lauri should be right up their alley. DET is the only other team that I think makes more sense.

I honestly have no desire to watch Jazz games at this point

Hardy might have to come up with some creative ways to pull out the L in the second half. How long until summer league?
Wizards lost to the Sixers. The Jazz need to lose this one to fulfill the great prophesy. There's no wiggle room.
He took out Flip, Brice and Keyonte. Things have turned around a bit since then.
Young guys really need 3 years to prove themselves. Several guys from the 2022 draft really took a step forward this year--e.g., Walker Kessler, Shaedon Sharpe, Jalen Duren, Nikola Jovic, Mark Williams, etc.
Alright, crunch time.
Kyle is going off
Feels gross being nervous and hoping for a loss in a close game, but here we are. Strap in, brother.
Blazers must be trying to out-tank us. Sharpe missed his last 3 FTs. He's an 80% FT shooter.
