  1. Scoot and Ant heal quickly please, I don’t know how much more I can watch Mays be our only competent ball handler. Plus Sharpe looks exhausted.

    At least Ayton looked great tonight. Was aggressive when he got the ball in his spots.

  2. 👀⚠️🚨🤤ish wainright minutes alert 🚨⚠️👀🤤

  3. Sharpe needs more rest. Reath and Bouyea are not NBA rotation players. Chauncey is still the ultimate tank commander.

  4. Well this certainly jeopardizes our chances of winning the NBA Cup and having it renamed later as the Toumani Camara Invitational.

  5. Our shooting down the stretch was comically bad

    And the last 8 mins of the game we played extremely out of control. We kept giving them chances when they were begging for us to take the game from them lol

  6. Bouyea, more like Bounah…0/0/0 in 17 minutes with 5 turnovers

    I think Blevins would do better.

  7. Having to play Bouyea at all completely sunk the ship, he can’t come close to replicating Mays minutes.

    Injuries have cooked us at the moment, and I don’t expect it to get any better until Scoot/Ant/Brogdon return.

  8. Just gonna erase the last 7 minutes of the game from my memory. Was really nice to see us get Ayton the ball finally. Lets keep doing that, he had a great game. Also.. Shaedon is fucking gassed.

  9. Guards need to stop being scared to throw in the post entry pass and high low pass. Too many times the jazz switched a guard into Ayton and we failed to get him the ball.

  10. I’ll preface this by saying I am not one of this sub’s major Chauncey haters

    But the coaching decision by him to change the lineup halfway through the fourth was borderline malpractice. The guys were mounting a comeback and playing with spirit, defensive intensity. It looked like we were back in the game. Chauncey calls a timeout after two bad looks on offense and subs in a lineup that had no chemistry and looked like wet newspaper on defense, led by (no offense but it’s the truth) a guy who really does not belong in the league on offense

    Like I just don’t get how you do that. If the guys are fighting and playing hard you don’t call a timeout and make a major substitution during a comeback run just to make a point about a couple bad offensive possessions. That isn’t how you coach a young team. Even if he thought the way things were headed on offense was going to lead to a loss, you have to reward the effort

    Idk, I want to give him the benefit of the doubt and just call it a purposeful tank job. But an NBA coach should not be making decisions so obviously and predictably bad that a dumbass such as myself can see the outcome from a mile away. So deflating watching him make that move and then it play out exactly like you expec

    Edit: We had closed the gap to 99-93 when he made this sub then the jazz immediately went on a run to make it 111-93. Just unbelievably bad. Lmao

  11. Not sure why we settled for so many threes while being in the penalty the last 8 minutes of the 4th…

  12. it doesn’t feel so bad cuz we share our record with the spurs and probably the clippers too

  13. This stretch of the season is a lost cause. We gotta rest our main guys as much as possible and hope to go on a run when we get healthy.

  14. I really wished that scoot wouldn’t be injured

    he would be shining amongst our players right now

  15. Might not be popular to say but Shaedon has had a number of possessions last few games not hustling back on D especially after drives. It even got called out by Lamar tonight.

    Hopefully its mostly fatigue.
