Theyll beat the jazz just to mess with our heads



Inevitable loss



We might have chance! Jazz will be on B2B games. Finally get a team that's a little bit tired.



Jazz also have multiple shot creators (Mitchell, Conley, Bogdanovic, Clarkson), so I think the Raptors defense, which loads up on a single player, is going to get torched a lot.



Seems Ingles been their strongest 3-point shooter lately, and usually from the top of the arc. Can’t leave him open



Jazz are on the second half of a back to back. Yesterday they lost to the Wizards. If there were ever a game where we could score a W, this is it.



We need to stop baguette biyombo or the night will be longgggg



Damn Utah looking sharp in those suits...making me crave jello



1st Half



Jazz on a B2B on the road. Gotta keep the intensity up until they fade in the 4th quarter. Should be no problem with our full squad.



Joe Ingles looks like he's straight out of Animal Kingdom.



How does Gobert get away with illegal screens all the time? You're not allowed to stick your leg out just because you're tall.



I wonder if Utah gonna complain about officiating tonight when they end up with double our ft attempts



I seriously wonder if we do shooting drills in practice? When I see other team score easily and our team brick easy buckets I just shake my head



Every damn time! When is Gobert going to get called for an offensive foul? This is getting ridiculous.



Fred! Nice to see an end of the quarter bucket go in our favour for a change.



watch the Raptors get punished because of the clock being late...



Joe Ingles is such a troll



this is like a different team. honestly, **** covid for costing us those games.



Bojan looks like he should be conducting morally gray science experiments in a lab. Not playing in the NBA.



I be embarrassed being a Jazz fan, and watching my team get fe**ated by the refs and only being up 1 point.



Sucks that there aren't enough fans there to properly boo the refs



Utah’s passing is sexy I cannot lie



Clock started late wonder if they let us keep it or take it away like that TRoss shot



So can you be in shooting motion if you’re facing the stands? Asking for a friend.





2nd Half



We’re shooting a little too well to only be up 4. I don’t like how this is trending unless they start to get to the line.



Utah being in the bonus so early is killing us. Now they're heading to the line with all these ticky-tack fouls. Ugh.



All Utah has to do is drive the ball to get a foul call. It's ridiculous.



Need to crank up the energy and let the Jazz feel tired legs on the back to back. Very winnable game here.



So the rhythm of this game is pretty easy to figure out. Each quarter the Raptors get out to a lead until the Jazz get in the bonus and Utah gets back into it with free throws. This is getting old fast.



We are getting so effed on the offensive boards.



Raps end 1st Q with no FG in the final 4 minutes

Raps end 3rd Q with no FG in the final 4 minutes



is gobert gonna get anything called on him lol



So Utah is going to be in the bonus with 8 or 9 minutes left in this quarter?



We are out of timeouts now.



Damn... we were up 5



Jazz decided to wake up.



I hate everything



Hoooooly **** Siakam cannot catch a break on those shots. That was his.



Seeing Siakam go 1-on-1 ISO vs DPOY Gobert in the paint down the stretch there (with the game on the line) was hard to see. I could see it clanking way before it happened.



Gobert dominating now



They had more free throws in the last two minutes than we got the whole game. How is that even possible?



What a god damn bailout while they're reeling and we're playing great defense



Mitchel getting WHATEVER HE WANTS. Fred might as well not be there that's how much his presence doesn't matter.



looks like tank is still on the menu boys



gobert has no skill. looks like met one of the refs out behind the dumpster and had some kind of deal

Is nurse calling a challenge? Risky move with only one timeout



Please we need a W ill do anything



why is this guy allowed to set moving screens and hack everyone?

let boucher go one on one with him and dominate



How is Siakam hitting 3’s now incredible



Man everyone returns and every 4th Q Raps messess up



lol man has the worst luck imaginable



Post Game



Damn... if only we could play like this against teams that are significantly worse than us



Our luck has been brutal this year. Like I genuinely feel bad.

Basketball gods have not been on our side this year man



I want Adam Silver and the refs under a mass investigation



Free throw discrepancies and but also -17 in rebounds.....didn't have any right to be be there.



If we go 8-2, which is my prediction, we should be back in 6-8th. If we do badly, say 3-7 or so, we're probably going to have to settle for the play-in.



personally, I was pretty sure we'd win, but utah looked pretty good for a team on their 3rd game in 4 nights.



Tbh Jazz deserve all those free throws



This has been truly brutal to watch. Aside from the horrible whistle, my goodness, up 5 with under 1 min left.



P A I N P A I N P A I N P A I N P A I N P A I N P A I N P A I N P A I N P A I N P A I N P A I N P A I N P A I N P A I N P A I N P A I N P A I N P A I N P A I N P A I N P A I N P A I N P A I N



UGGGGGHHH absolutely dicked by the basketball gods on that last shot



****ing rigged. Donovan crying about the refs 2 weeks ago made a difference looks like.



1-9 in last 10



We were up 5 to close this game and made some dumbass mistakes.....



**** this honest to god. 5 point lead with a minute 25 till we end and we lose by 3. I swear to ****ing god. It doesn’t matter how well we play. We always gonna choke it away. I’m ****ing fed up. We can’t close and I just can’t deal



Mike Conley should have had his first technical foul tonight when he hit Norm when Norm was inbounding the ball. How are the Raps supposed to win a game they shoot 30 less FT’s than the other team?



Days like these I wish I lived in Papua New Guinea and didn’t give a **** about basketball at all



Utah did not deserve to win that game.

They couldn’t either, so the refs won it for them.

**** me sideways.



Pascal laughing as he loses another game is a perfect example why he'll never lead this team to greatness. Dude just doesn't care.



pascal laughing after it rolled out was such a mood. honestly, what else can you do at that point



We’re reaching the point of being most unlucky team in the history of big 4 sports



I see why people say Mitchell is the next Dwyane Wade. The way Mitchell was getting an absurd amount of free throws from the refs today reminds me of 2006 Finals Wade



Who on the raptors can draw fouls? Drawing fouls is a skill. Derozan used to live on the line cause he was good at drawing fouls



Utah are bums they just get superstar calls



How many ****ing one possession losses do we have this season



That last shot is hilarious, just a perfect depiction of what this season has been.



It's like they were trying to lose on purpose at the end. How does everyone try drive against Gobert?



one of our better losses. that's what it's come to.



41 free throws to our 14?!!! Game was stolen by refs. Raps played a great game.



Their play was just a replay of so many time they couldn’t find the best shooter in a few second except Siakam who is not a certified clutch player! They trust him so much during crucial moment but there is no assurance to his shot !



Looks like most games will come down to the wire like this one. Mitchell was clutch for the Jazz tonight on a back to back for them.



WOW!! An expected outcome playing the #1 team but just heartbreaking knowing we were there all game long. When Utah is given 41 free throws compared to Toronto's 14, just how do you overcome that?



The refs hate us. Utah had three times the trips to the line and it is disgusting how they favour any other team we play! They really need to do an investigation into the reffing against our team!



We desperately need a legit big man! They better do something to address that or we can’t be competitive on a high level getting out rebounded constantly!



How does Mitchell take the same amount of free throws as the entire Raps team? how on earth do the Jazz have a foul to give with 3.5 seconds left? Are they the best defense of all time?



Should have won this one... Not enough rotation of players... Why have Siakam play that much and Boucher so little ?



The refs needs to be ******* fined.This is ridiculous now,that game we should have won.D.Mitchell went to the line like 50 times for crying out loud.I really feel for these guys because they played hard tonight.



Let’s stop pretending Siakam is ‘the guy’.

As much as we want him to be, he just isn’t.



When you play two small guards against giants you don’t deserve things to go your way. VanVleet/Lowry small ball insanity ensures this team will stop no one in the clutch.



The unluckiest team in the NBA



nba does not play fair



This team couldn't close a box



Going for 2 with no timeouts and 6 seconds left is questionable



Quin Snyder looks like the bad guy in a ****** cop show produced by global



Mitchell is a killer something we don’t have and one reason why we don’t get calls we have no superstar.



Joe Ingles looks like Nick Nurse snuck on court to play for the jazz



Holy **** ingles is ridiculous



Gobert is humongous. He makes Boucher look absolutely tiny.



I hate the fact we can’t grab a rebound at all. Literally no one on the team can grab a board to save their life



My partner just saw Donovan Mitchell on the telecast when the camera was staring at him.

I know that look on her face when I see it. My relationship is in danger.



Every game we choke it’s embarrassing like holy **** we suck monkey balls



Can gobert score outside of 2 feet?



Oof Malachi is like a little chipmunk against Gobert



This is literally the first time I’ve watched Gobert play. He is enormous.



Clarkson looks every 2k player ever



Utah got such a good bench



Utah are so good man, they arnt even in second gear today



Donovan Mitchell with killer instinct



What do you think joe ingles smells like?



Man Mitchell is special



Raptors cannot rebound. Rebounds gives you extra possession. More possession, more chances of drawing a foul. Most of their fouls are after a rebound or mismatches against Gobert.



What's the definition of insanity? Keep giving the ball to Pascal for the last shot.



Love it when we get out free throwed by 1 person again



Our bench is what killing us. Our bench is not deep at all. That's what a we need from the trade deadline



Replace Utah logo with the refs



The challenge on that Mitchell foul was pointless it left us with no timeouts with 2 minutes to go



41-14 How’s this game not being investigated



Down astronomically after that in and out



Beyond first 6 players who were fine rest of the team had 6 points total. Raptors' bench had 100 points Aug 23, an NBA playoff record. What happened to Raptors' bench?



Eh. The whole season is a big poopy-sack So, it's okay.



I understand Emo music so much more after this game



NEED A REBOUNDING CENTER! Need more bench help as well



BRO IT WENT IN AND THEN OUT THEN IN AND OUT



7 losing streak... I'm suffering right now



Every loss is a heartbreaker man what did we do to deserve this



hits not fair



It was a 5 point lead with 1min 30 and Mitchell grabbed his own ball that slipped, should have been Raps ball. Instead he got 2 free throws. F'ing BS



Chubby Freddy getting smoked by Donovan Mitchell in last minutes. Mitchell blows by him like he doesn't exist.



Quinn Snyder looks ****ing crazy. Haha



Gobert looks like a giant, demented version of Norm.



Ingles looks like a suburban dad that is coincidentally a basketball player.



Joe Ingles, HS Phys Ed teacher by day



I wish Conley and Mitchell weren’t so likeable so I could just hate this gd team



Why the **** are all our players trying to drive on gobert?



Does anyone else absolutely despise that fast break foul? It should really be a technical.



The hell kinda fast break was that? That would be Shaqtin worthy if the casuals at TNT watched the Raptors



Aight bois stop hitting boucher in the face its been like 4 games now



If I was a Raptor, I’d make it my mission tonight to trigger Conley into his first technical in his 14 year career. I’d be a legend

Speaking of Papua New Guinea, a year or two ago I was watching this old film on YouTube about the first contract of this tribe with the outside world.



It’s actually quite interesting. They suspected that they thought initially they were a ghost. They were very stand-offish at first, but eventually let their guard down. Spent a few days with them. They exchanged food and they really liked rice when he put salt on it. They were able to teach each other some very basic language and communication. But what was really incredible is right at the end, the main guy from the tribe spoke the best English he could and said, “the Toronto Raptors suck.”
