October 22nd - UTAH JAZZ @ portland trailblazers (8pm MST)

[Brown Notes]

A blowout by a poor team is exactly what the Jazz need. Those guys walked on the court like the game was already won, and deserved to be punched out. Come back next game like professionals and show some fire going into the season.

Jazz backcourt just manhandled in this game. Lot harder when you line up against 3 pros. We needed these games sooner in the preseason. Positive takeaway is our break could really be a weapon this year. Negative takeaway is Mo Will takes stupid shots. I hope he's just experimenting preseason.

Lillard looking like he should have been the 2nd pick in the draft

You know if Jordan drafted a player he will be awful. That is the failsafe key to a player's NBA potential...if Jordan likes him, he sucks. So, I am glad Lilliard was not drafted #2.

Been really high on lillard for a long time

Same with me. Except for the lillard part.

Can we merge this thread with "jazz will win 60 games" thread?

Al Jefferson hasn't changed one bit. When he touches the ball, the offense dies. We were up big in the first without him...Then we went to him and the next thing we know, three straight TO's, and Portland is then up big.

I would not normally waste time with stupid comments like this, but this is completely untrue on every level. We were up "big" for about 5 minutes. Then their guards wrecked us completely. Our 1 through 3 got owned.

The Blazers might just be the gold standard for blowing draft picks.

Contrary to popular belief, I do not think the sky is falling. Portland is very good at home.

It'd be nice if Favors developed any sort of a post game though.

 

[Jazz4ever]

amazing move by Favors.

 

[billyshelby]

We'll see how Lillard does in the real season. He looks good, though.

I agree. Good post.

Not the sixth pick though.

Its not a fluke. This will be the norm.

LOL - when Boone asked if Portland had a hockey team am I the only one who thought that was a lead in comment about how Portland was playing 5 white guys at the same time?

 

[jope]

Burks is a force. Now if only he'd play when it actually matters

 

[jope]

Utah gives up 41 in the 1st, then when they finally play kanter and burks they score 41 in the fourth

It was nice to Favors be so aggressive in the first half. He needs to keep working on his offense, but being aggressive is a start. Kanter continues to impress me.
