Lets remember that next time we blow chunks against one of the league's worst teams. Again, keep your perspective. A one point win against the WC's 2nd worst team.

Props to Corbin on getting Burks back in there. He hadn't been having much of a game but CJ just had to come out. I would have liked Favors in there late but for Sap not Al. You haters are nuts. If Al would have had committed those turnovers in crunch time this board would be drowning in magma.
Al made the shot that broke the ice. Al passed out of a collapsed D time and time again in the 4th. Al made the winning shot. But of course the opponent's run was all his fault. Whatever.
Great win and one of the few where the team overcomes a lead on the road late. This Kings team was very confident and was obviously believing they should win. We just beat 2 playoff teams including the 2nd best in the league. To scoff this one off is just sour grapes about being wrong about how fractured/mismanaged/poorly coached this team actually is.

Serious question, are we better with or without Raja Bell?

Maybe The Thriller should ask for a name change to Buzz Kill.
Joking: I understand the disappointment. Do you think Indiana is happy about a 2-pt win over Washington? Ugly wins are going to happen. I'd rather have an ugly win than have lost this game, hurt our playoff chances and put Sacramento a game closer to Golden State. And it's good to hear the Jazz players say they're not happy about their performance. They'll learn from this near loss.

depends on his minutes.
the more minutes bell plays the worse off jazz are
The lowest a big man can shoot is 45% and still be decent. If they get to the FT line and rebound (Kevin Love). Cousins shoots sub 45%, plays crappy defense, and takes bad shots. He is an incredible talent, but the Kings aren't going to be a playoff team if he plays like he did tonight.

If we were supposed to be a great team right now, I might be concerned as well, but we are actually talking about a team that many pundits put dead last in the conference before the season started. We are on a five game win streak and heading into the play-offs if we keep this up with all the young guys contributing a ton. Wins like these must be fantastic for morale and a great learning experience for these guys. Let them and us enjoy the win and the streak. I am sure that Corbin and his staff will make sure that the mistakes made in this game are not easily forgotten and forgiven.
The Jazz played well. The Kings are a handful. They look like possibly the fastest team I've seen all year. Evans, Thornton, and Thomas are as quick as they come, and Cousins has super-star talent (did you see that behind the back move -- haven't seen a big man do that, that well, since Magic). Thompson is no slouch either; he outplayed Millsap. The Jazz struggled against the zone though; when CJ is not hitting we have no other dependable long range shooter.

Me too. Thankfully we will be at home (with the fans behind us) and the game doesn't start until 8:30 Utah time because it is on ESPN. This should help us overcome any fatigue that we could possibly face.

I want a link for who placed us in LAST place in the CONFERENCE. Please, provide some links.

Better. Maybe. Carroll played really well but we needed shooting like Jesus needs a haircut in the 4th.
Carroll was so impressive and young that I think he might replace CJ and be our 5th wing that nobody has to worry about disappointing.
I would say yes Bell could have helped us in the 4th. for this game. No in the long run.
