Game Thread: Utah Salt Tankers VS. OKC Thunder Nov. 24th 5:00 PM MT

[CAKAR]

The Thunder started 1-16 with an average scoring margin of -12.35 in 08/09 (with Westbrook, Durant, Green, Sefolosha, Collison, Krstic). The Jazz are now 1-14 with an average scoring margin of -11.8.

Maybe its just normal for young teams without any experience to suck, if you have crappy vets and no meaningful bench around them ?

And then what did they do next

Drafted Harden?

Well right before that they fired their coach.

But yet even without Harden or even Westrbrook they are good, really good.

Damn, so they didn't actually even let it get to this point before they fired their coach. Krazy

 

[GVC]

And then what did they do next

They fired PJ at 1-12.

 

[Ben10]

And then what did they do next

They went 2 for 2o something and 3 for 30 something. Started to figure it out and won a few more games at the end then drafted James Hardin with the 3rd pick.

* Edit. Just looked it up they went 3-29. They then finished the season going 20-30. Then drafted Hardin

Jazz could have the same kind of season just looking at the schedule

 

[Sneakers]

At least Kanter's xrays were negative

 

[Revolution 9]

I'm happy Stoked wasn't here to witness this mess.

Hopefully he missed the game completely.

Positive note Jeremy Evans is a pretty decent artist.

I've said it before and i will say it again. Who ty chooses to put on the court whether it's vets or pulling the hot hand is not the reason i want him gone. We just don't seem to have any structure and our players look to have no confidence

OHHHH MMMMYYYYY GGGGOOODDDDD

They're doubling down. They are airing a special on TY Corbin on KJZZ tomorrow.

Maybe the glass half full perspective is that they originally scheduled this to air during the all star break in February, but decided to move it up.

 

[♪alt13]

There is no chance he gets a contract next year. ****ing zero.

 

[Siro]

I would like to have everyone come out that said that the Jazz would be better than people thought. I just just want you to know how wrong you were.

/raises hand

By like I've always said, what do I know?

 

[framer]

The good news is that this game is going to move Gobert up the all time jazz center list considerably. . .

 

[candrew]

DID YOU HEAR THAT? Boler just did it!.. "Jazz resilient for coach Corbin... 14-2 run to end game"

Did you ever hear the saying in baseball that it's hard to pitch with a 10 run lead?

Jazz are proving that this applies to basketball as well. Except instead of 10 runs it's 30 points.

Thanks for coming clean. I know it's not easy.

Ahh Thurl ... "The Jazz are just focusing too much on scoring."

Thurls been doing the tv & radio bit for few years and he knows who signs the checks, that is the voice of experience.

Britton Johnson isn't as experienced ,he was very critical of the jazz and said that the players and coaches mailed it in. He went on to say the Jazz couldn't get good looks because of the thunders defense, but the explained that all the thunder did wad switch everywhere....daring the jazz to beat them. He scoffed at them, saying it was a defense scheme that took no preparation and that it was something you'd see in 6th or 7th grade basketball. But the jazz couldn't beat it.

Forgot to tweet this earlier ... X-rays on Kanter's ankle were negative, which is a positive in the X-ray world. Sprain. Re-evaluated in AM.
