Jazz-Rockets game thread, happy groundhog day

can anyone remember the last time the crowd got Chik-Fil-A? I can't

I might be too hard on Spida, but I expected more from him tonight. Especially our team. We need new pieces, different pieces to become better. We can go deep with Conley and become more dangerous with Niko

I do like the amount of times Donovan has been going to the line lately.

 

[campaignist]

i'd rather wipe this game from my mind and rewatch the portland game

Can't wait to have a knock down shooter at the 4 to replace Crowder when his shoot is off. Wiiiiiide open, all rim

Harden kicked our ***

James Harden you don't stay on the bench supporting your team?

If you're not injured, then that's low.

A tough loss, a very underwhelming performance by the Jazz. They've been folding a lot against the Rockets lately and it's a bit concerning come playoff time and Chris Paul ain't even playing too. Ricky a no show tonight I see.

Damn
The Portland and Houston losses combined are pretty devastating.

Was thinking about this since the Conley rumors were swirling. How does Rubio leaving impact our team is everything Moto. The team morale Spida's bromance? The commercials ??? Hear what I mean ?

Honestly, it's the team's fault for not playing well enough to keep him around. It's not like everyone is cruising and he's the odd man out.

We didn't look like an nba team tonight. Borderline g league at best. Hope We can rebound.

Just a bad game from everyone besides Royce and Favors tbh.

and revealing.

The Jazz need more talent. They've been too inconsistent this year and still don't have a guy that can create and score reliably. I have a feeling the Conley deal gets done. Mirotic would be a nice addition as well. It's a carryover of problems from last year. Time to rectify them.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Its just frustrating how Rudy can let the refs throw him off his game so much. He has to rid himself of his Demarcus Cousins tendencies when calls aren't going his way.

 

[Spinoza]

Is Mitchell injured again? He's playing like he was in December, slow, half assed penetrations that lead to a TO or a mid range shot with 2 or 3 defenders on him. He was attacking the rim much more effectively lately.

What changed? Rubio came back. Donovan needs to be the facilitator. Ricky nerds to get the F out of Utah.

 

[RJF]

Currently 20 points on 21 shots. Harden 38 points on 19 shots.

And 19 FT’s...

If Dante were healthy he would probably just be fouled out

or fell down and got injured.

 

[RJF]

They do treat him like they do everyone else.

Bwahahahaha! Stfu.

But that is not what the rumors are about. IF Conley comes to town he will have the ball in his hands more, and Donovan less. I wonder what it would be like if Jazz let Mitchell be like Iverson and they found a player to fill the Eric Snow role-in that scenario I would love to keep Rubio as the pg coming off the bench to facilitate the second unit.

People want Exum to be the big sg to play alongside Donovan, not me. He is what he is, an injury prone, unreliable, mouth breather who would have his lunch money stolen in the G-league.
