  1. that third quarter was rough but kessler beasley and lauri were huge down the stretch

  2. Only one more win until we can definitively tell the people who say “well… the Wizards started 10-3 last year” to suck it

  3. I want to apologize to Mike Conley for hoping the Jazz trade him this off-season. Even when he doesn’t shoot well, he quarterbacks this team so well.

  4. Kessler and Beasley just laughing and joking. Loving this team, here we go boys. I know it’s 13 in but this is FUN

  5. Boys we’ve made it to double-digits: Jazz now 10-0 when scoring 55+ at half.

    Once again, Hardy rolls with the hot hand giving Kessler an extended run and closing out with Beasley on the court. Such a different approach from previous seasons.

    They say good teams find ways to win and our guys have indeed found plenty of ways to win.

  6. Watching all the smiles and celebrations of this team after big plays really warms my heart, Beasley went nuclear! fuck the haters!!!

  7. Im sorry Michael Conley for not trusting you after hearing the news you wont be traded, I love you , and I will always love you

  8. What a fucking fight!

    How about our rookie big coming in and changing that game.

    There’s something special happening here. I’m not sure what this teams ceiling is either.

    That was our 3rd game in 4 nights with a trip cross country where we blew a double digit lead…AND WE CAM BACK TO WIN!

    Are we this first to double digit wins???

    Edit: yes and if the cavs loose we’ll own the second best record in the league

  9. Kessler is a godsend, perfect traditional bigman that’s always needed in the league. Sure, 3 point shooting is nice, but sometimes you just need a big cunt slapping balls and being tall. And he’s already doing it at a quality NBA level.

  10. i was pretty confident this team could come back even when they were down 10. these guys just hit a little different.

    mike was phenomenal down the stretch, ran the whole shit like a maestro

  11. After trading Gobert, I’m glad to see my Jazz have an all defensive first team center on the team again

  12. JAZZ NOTES:

    First off major props to Dejounte Murray. He’s a baller

    But holy hell this jazz team man

    Lauri Markkanen AKA GOD with the 32 pts 8 reb. 6-8 from 3, and 8-8 from the line. 16 pts in the first quarter, great game by God himself. He had a [MONSTER SLAMARAMA](https://twitter.com/Dom_2k/status/1590524046705188864) waived off by the FRAUDULENT REFS

    BIG UPS to Walker Kessler. Every game he improves more and more, and his 3rd quarter minutes were huge to mount a comeback. He had 12 on perfect shooting, 6 reb and 3 blocks in 16 minutes.

    THT is also improving more and more. He had a [monster block](https://twitter.com/Samsworth_KSL/status/1590531757149159425) on Trae Young, kept it inbounds, and took it all the way down and hit a wide open JC for 3. His 3rd quarter minutes were big for us too. I also feel inclined to talk about how Holly Rowe was describing THT’s body, and said he has broad shoulders, and a “big backyard and knows how to use it”. AYO

    Overall our bench unit gave us this lead back when we lost it. The swagger they bring in is so contagious.

    Malik Beasley only took 1 two pointer, and missed it. Went 6-11 overall, 6-10 from 3. He had 2 of our 5 steals as well.

    Sexton struggled today, and played the least amount of minutes of our rotation players. Just 3 pts on 1-6 shooting

    Rudy Gay, although he struggled shooting, actually contributed with decent-ish defense in the 3rd.

    Clarkson is just thriving here man. Can’t find any other words for it. He is at his peak rn. Dishing everything, scoring everything

    I fucking love Kessler and Beasley man. I can’t overstate how much they commandeered the comeback. Kessler doesn’t play like a rook, and Beasley has that DAWG

    Our transition D still needs a ton of work. Especially after made baskets. I know Atlanta plays fast, but we need to hone that in.

    Conley didn’t take a lot of shots, but dished out 13 assists to only 1 turnover. Holy fuck he’s good

    Olynyk had himself a cute little game. He scored very quietly, but had 3 big OREB’s for us.

    Like u/CBNDSGN says, the Jazz are 10-0 when scoring 55+ at the half

    10-3 BITCHES WE ARE COMING FOR THE L.O.B

    [Rob Perez adds in a new person in the pic that the Jazz win, just kinda fun to check out](https://twitter.com/WorldWideWob/status/1590535703808847872)

  13. Leicester Salt Lake City

    I’m convinced.

    Books had us winning the chip at +10000 odds, hope y’all put your dollars down preseason.

  14. Bringing Kessler in the 3rd really changed and turned things around. We could’ve quite possibly gotten blown out if it weren’t for his spark at that time

  15. Markkanen Has been Outrageous, Beasley shot lights out, Mike with The Scott skiles treatment, Clarckson being clarckson , Walker kessler becoming rudy gobert , Tht Having the best decitions, And we fought after they came back and lead by 10. Simply simply lovely

  16. I’ll just say what we can all see happening: Walker Kessler is a couple seasons away from being prime Gobert on defense.

    Good trade, Dan. Good trade.

  17. The weirdest part of this game is Rudy Gay getting the highest +/- with +18 despite trying his to lose this game
