Jazz @ Thunder (1pm MT) Game Thread

[RJF]

Didn't see the game(work) but was able to listen to much of the 4th while driving. Looking at the box and seeing how few minutes the starters played made what the 2nd team did that much more impressive. I don't expect scoring like this from Exum every night but if he can consistently play this way for extended periods of time then I'll be tickled pink.

Meh

OKC probably wins 15 games without him. Okc probably loses this game if they don't put him back in.

I dont think they would win 10.

 

[fishonjazz]

I'd rather win, but its a nice consolation prize

Pls stop.

Ya just win as many as you can.
Never know what other teams will do or where they will end up

 

[fishonjazz]

Yeah still sucks that the Jazz lost .. but also happy here with the fight esp with Exum's, Neto's and Bolomboy's game. Nice game.
Will be able to nap later with a smile.

Burks played well too

We have to forget about homecourt advantage thing an focus on matching up against houston which means avoiding gsw.
We all know jazz play better vs houston than vs clippers. 4th or 5th seed is not positive at all

Ideas about gaming the standings is a fan thing. I absolutely guarantee you the FO doesn't engage in this stupid crap for a second.

Isn't san antonio is clearly worse than golden state (even without durant)?
I think gsw will stick to #1 seed.

Aren't the jazz play significantly better against houston compared to clippers?

Houston is the only western conf. playoff team we won our season series against.

I had the game recorded. With Rudy and Favors out I turned the game off when it was 10 to 15 in the first qtr.

So if we happen to get a favorable matchup, hooray for us. The team isn't going to pick games to lose so that they can game the standings. NEVER.

Your insistence that they should is super dumb. You should probably shut up about it, seriously.

Okay then

Except falling to 6th most likely means a GSW 2nd round matchup now. I'll still take HCA over a favorable matchup.

I guess you've missed the news that LMA is out indefinitely with heart issues

that's surprising given his previous inabiity in the postseason to show any heart ...

Again, we don't know where gs, San antonio, clippers, memphis, thunder will end up

Nice

Encouraging game. Our bench almost beat the Thunder. The Clippers game is going to be entertaining - hoping Lyles has gained some confidence (despite all those fouls) and Exum and Burks continue to score at will and get lots of foul shots.

I didn't see the game. Can someone give me the low dowN? Exum looks like he played well

Played pretty crappy coming out, they got to the rim at will and hit open 3's. Gave them a lead early that they expanded through 3 quarters (out to ~20). Lineup of Neto/Exum/Burks/Lyles/Bolomboy brought us back into it in the 4th, was fairly entertaining for a loss.

No.

Maybe with Aldridge out.

Yes.

Damn, I hate losing to this OKC team. Don't give a crap who played well and s**t, f**k that. I expect us to win. 3-1 OKC regular series win is sickening. Jazz better not be prentenders in the playoffs or I swear... heads will roll.

Outstanding effort by the Jazz bench; something the Thunder doesn't possess. Thunder has been a tough matchup. Jazz has built a solid core of players post Williams & Millsap.

You have the potential to make it to the Western Conference finals. Who knows what can happen from there; injuries to key players can haunt any team entering the playoffs. You've had a good share of injures this season--you've weathered that storm.

Jazz will make some noise in the playoffs.
