The great and dreadful day of the Donovan is at hand: Jazz @ Thunder 4/18/2018 6:00 pm MST

I have said this before and I will keep saying it. Bring this same set of guys back next year. Don’t change a thing. We get Thabo back and a summer for Exum and Mitchell and look out world. Pay favors what ever he needs to come back.

Early in the year when the jazz were sucking and tanking talk was running amok we played a bottom feeder (I wanna say the kings) and I posted in the gamethread that I would join the tank if the jazz lost. They won.
I thought Rubio was the worst player ever and would have traded him for trash.
I didn’t believe jingles was worth his contract.
I thought favors should probably be traded (though I liked him, just thought he was a bad fit)
I thought Mitchell was really good but not nearly this good.
There was a gobert must go thread.
Our role players seemed to leave something to be desired.

I learned my lesson quickly. Don’t doubt these guys. There is something special happening. I don’t think they have a chance to win the title this year (hope that comes back to bite me) but they are close. No doubt in my mind.

It all rides on Mitchell and really how could you doubt Him?

A lot of good points here. We almost all thought the same.

I think there's a near 100% certainty that all of our rotation guys will be back next year. I'm also worried about what the ceiling of this team is as currently constructed though.

Definitely on board with signing Exum and Favs, making a solid draft pick, and running it back.

But I trust whatever Lindsey does at this point tbh.
 
Quin must have blown an eight-ball at halftime to not take a TO during their run.
 
Anyone got footage of the fourth quarter smile?

In the sea of white OKC fans, there were these 4 Jazz fans sitting pretty close to the basket the Jazz were shooting at in the second half and they'd just go nuts every time our boys hit a shot. I loved watching them. Local fans? Or some Utah kids on a mission? ;)

So how we pay for Exum and Favors? And you don't think the Thunder throw out a 20+ mill at Favors when PG13 leaves?
 
Seriously happened this morning. I woke up at 7am and heard a loud voice in my head. "get up and check the score" "get up" "they won". I had a charge, and felt it.
I always get nervous when I wake up after big games, and go to check the score. As the feed loads what will I see first? Some negative comments, something from the jazz official page, a highlight."? Sometimes it's a negative comment from one of the Facebook jazz groups, and my heart sinks. They lost. Damn it. Sometimes its something positive, and your heart races, they won, they won! And I scroll down to find the conformation.

Today I kept hearing that voice, over and over. I lay in bed too scared to check. But it was persistent, and very powerful. Like an angel or something talking to you. Im not joking guys!

Then my son runs into the room. "mommy told me to come wake you up".

Ok there is no choice now. I must open my facebook feed and face "it".

What will be the first thing I see....

Was the repeateded voice in my head just wishful thinking?

Somehow I felt good. Which is rare in any morning...

Ok turn on phone, click Facebook.

Feed loading...

First thing I see "donovan being interviewed with a smile on his face...."

(heart racing)
 
So damn proud of this team! The resilience on display just brings a tear to your eye.

Foot on throat now, don't let them get up.
