Have a feeling Friday's moral victory is going to seem a lot less impressive
When we get spanked today. Guessing there’s be like 10 Ingles 3s today.
Hope I’m wrong.
Utah has been sending the double on KAT post ups though
It might not be the optimal place to him the ball but it’s still gotta be one of the better offensive options with KAT’s passing game getting stronger. That pass to Wiggins earlier was pretty nice
OK ,,,, if your name ain't Wig or Kat .... Don't Shoot!!!!
Back to back threes to close the half, nice job sir!
Thought it was supposed to be a 6PM start local
Maybe they're thinking all those Mormons go to bed early.
I love that they will call that foul on Taj for that Ingles 3, but miss the over the back on Gobert when he just elbows someone in the back of the head.
Remember when Rubio was spoonfeeding KAT and Wiggins buckets like that one
Jazz are loving Okogie taking so much of the offense.
Trade 3s for Mitchel's 2s anyday. Keep hitting the 3s boys.
Towns might miss his first Triple-Double because of rebounds, which is kind of interesting.
Mitchel dribble drive hell. Get him a rest already Jazz. Get we get anyone to own position in the elbow to slow him down?
Ingles just gave me eye whiplash with that hand misdirection.
I've been watching Gobert and he just camps out in the paint and the refs don't call 3 seconds on him. It's ridiculous. He does it over and over. That rule was created for guys like him.
Wow, threes keeping us in the game! That’s different.
Ricky having himself a game.
You notice how often Utah's players are on the move already when they catch the ball?
That’s how players of average (at best) quickness like Ingles and Rubio can get the advantage and turn the corner on their defenders.
The Wolves, on the other hand, have little player movement in their offense and get no advantage from the system to help them make attacks against the defense.
It’s a little edge, but that’s coaching…
Jazz - well oiled machine
Jazz just way ahead on many levels right now...
Dang gritty team
Korver has helped the Jazz huge.
Towns pretty quiet in the 4th. Gobert slamming.
Crowder 6th man. Wolves missing their 6th man. What can you do.
Every single Utah player is a positive +/- , every single Minnesota player is a negative
let's not lose
Each game against Western conference opponents carries immense importance. The Jazz are hot right now; all the more reason why a win tonight will send a strong message to the rest of the NBA: #AllEyesNorth
Wiggins loses the ball driving to the lane more than any player in the league
Why is Taj attacking Gobert
With all due respect **** the Utah Jazz
Just give KAT the ****ing ball every possession. Saunders keeps trying this ******** to get Wiggins shot thinking it's going to work but Wiggins is a bad offensive player who can't shoot or dribble right now. Run the offense through your best player not one of the least efficient players in NBA history, and don't lose Towns the way Thibs did.
kareem's sky hook...hakeem's dream shake...dirk's one legged fadeaway...wiggins' getting stripped
Was Andrew always this bad at dribbling?
Korver fouling Deng... that may be the oldest foul pairing in the NBA this year.
Wiggins has been good lately I like this timeline again
Shot selection has been good for Wiggins tonight. Haters..
One game vs. 5 seasons. I'll take the larger sample size
damn people out in the suburbs just heard KAT scream lmao
I don’t think I’ve ever heard that clear of someone screaming at a ref before
Can you get a technical for just saying foul?
to have made that many threes in the quarter and actually lost ground is truly impressive
Lol I actually love Jingles
15-30 from three and down 12 is a serious yikes
Leaving Korver open like that is suicide
I love when Wiggins gets aggressive and drives, he so much more productive and efficient like this.
The Jazz just can’t miss wtf
lol I cannot express to you how hilarious this is that Jerryd Bayless is being productive.
He was so terrible in Philly
Play some ****ing defense goddamn
What does KAT need to do to get some of that "star treatment" you hear all about? He got 2nd team all nba, allstar. People consistently rate him as one of the top offensive centers in the league. Refs just let him get hacked at.
Wiggins is red hot bet we can’t stop Utah
Gobert is such a tank on defense.
Jazz can’t miss a 3
We have zero answers for Mitchell
The first red flag about Jimmy was when he didn’t get along with Rubio. We should have known all along
One of Wiggins best games ever, 5/5 in the 4th, and I gotta watch jarryd ****ing Bayless take shot after shot
Did the Jazz just throw the ball out of bounds on an inbound? lol
Dieng and Deng confusing the Utah defense
Why aren't we going under screens vs Rubio..
had to play the Jazz just in time for second half of the season Rubio smh
Wiggins should win this tip
Gotta put someone other than Bayless on Mitchell
Honestly the only people that should be shooting at all are KAT and Wiggins. So many bricks from everyone else.
GG. We played as best as we could. Utah just a better team.
Haha Jingling Joe with that math teacher calmness
Why are we dribbling for 20 seconds when we are down 8 @ 2min ... good god
I’m gonna stop hating on bayless for awhile
It's triggering me so bad we can't take the lead even for like a possesion
Quin Snyder has some nice hair
Towns and Okogie with the same number of shot attempts....
How are we are losing this game while shooting the 3 at a 50% clip and Wiggins playing so well
the Jazz are really ****ing good
What I would give to have Ricky right now.
Is there some obnoxious Jazz fan yelling?
You talking about Quin?
Is what I'm hearing?? Jesus, I didnt think any coach yelled louder than Thibs. I just assumed it was a fan lol
we lost the showdown of the 2 most stylish coaches in the NBA.
Feels Bad
**** Joe Ingles man what a friccin moron challenging the KAT in such a manner
Hey Jazz, nice jerseys, who’s your sponsor Orange Julius?
We would do better if we attacked Gobert in the paint and tired him out, rather then constantly second guessing and turning the ball over when we get near him. A block isnt worse then a turn over.
Not much you can do when they make their final 15 3 pointers of the game
All those dirty Gobert plays led to a win.
Gobert's 3rd foul?? He's committed about 12!
We get 2 points, they get 3 points. We. Need. 3-point. Shooters.
Thanks Thibs for yet another failed trade! Ricky we miss you!
I think I just got lost in his eyes
Is this the “magic” Ricky was talking about?!
Can we please have Rubio back
Meow
Regardless of the hate Ricky's a genuinely good guy
This team is just consistently average and it sucks
3. 2.. 1.... cue the people.who.dont even know who is on the court yet complain....
This wolves team is a joke. They are average and always will be average.
Twolves are no match for Rubio and Mitchell!!
Its raining 3s. hallelujah
Just still can’t seem to beat the Jazz ever
Can someone tell me who is the first shot option on the team?
This team has no chance to win we have to trade guys away Dieng and Teaugue have to go Gibson will be off the books so trade everyone you can besides Towns and Covington I'd love to trade Wiggins also but you will never find a taker !
FOR ALL THAT IS HOLY BRING RICKY BACK
Should have never traded him
Utah fans are awesome. Great team and fan base. Always root for you guys when you're not playing the wolves.
Good game???? Get back to .500 and lay 2 eggs against Utah....nothing like low expectations.
Who ever was supposed to guard Kyle korver in the 4th left him open two times that what started the 9 point lead smh
Wow I really thought after last game we would win this. How did we do worse...we really need our injured players back
What is defense?
*if anyone knows the plural for @UtahJazz players, please help... Jazzers? Jazzees? Coltranes? Armstrongs?
Josh Okogie had another poor game, shooting a ghastly 1-of-10 from the field and only providing marginal resistance to Utah’s Mitchell. He only grabbed two rebounds and dished out a single assist in 30 minutes of play.
Great game from Wiggins, we just don’t have the bodies to compete right now
Jazz were just too good down the stretch, we defended the PnR pretty poorly which led to a heap of 3’s.
Good to see Wig have a nice game, and players like Bayless and Deng have shown that this team is playing with a heap of heart even after missing 4 rotational players.
I dunno really how to feel about this one, disappointed we lost but if we won it would’ve almost been a miracle
I wish i would think my handles were as good as Bayless thinks his are
Didn't watch this game, but why only 10 fg for KAT? Was the defense smothering him all night or something?
Well Gobert would come over as help lots and when he playing kat it’s hard for him.
Kept it close for the most part, but the Jazz couldn’t miss down the stretch!! On to the next one...
My computer charger has been lost for a month I haven’t been able to watch for that long as well someone please give me good news about this team
Why do we have to be in a division with so many great centers? Kat has a tough matchup every division game.
Wiggins great game was wasted on horrible team defense! Also how does your best player with 5 guys out only takes 10 shots! Ridiculous playoff hopes are pretty much non existent
I agree the defense was awful, but so were a number of wolves. The Jazz had 7 players in double figures. The Wolves had Kat, Wiggins, Deng, and Bayless. The Wolves were let down by Gibson, Saric, Okogie, Terrel, and to a degree (although he did hit two threes) Gorgui. Honestly, without Roco or 1-3 on the PG depth chart, some defenses lapses will happen. But, the power forward position really let down tonight. This team is likely out of playoff contention with tonights loss, (as stated above, 4 games back with 30 to go.) Even if you cling to hope that we may still make it to the dance at the 7 or 8 seed, we need to make some trades before the deadline. If we don’t we will see our trade bait turn into pumpkins, and pretty much ensure that next season will be worse than this one.
It just seemed inevitable. The Wolves would get back in it a and then give up a couple of threes. On several occasions a Mitchell strolled into the paint, drawing all kinds of help, which would result in an open corner three for Crowder, who seemed to be shooting a lot better than I remember or Korver who will kill you even when you’re on him.
Mitchell murdered Bayless and kind of smoked Okogie too. With the injuries the Wolves just have no answer defensively.
