1. Great defense by the Jazz on AD, especially down the stretch, and amazing maturity from some of the young guys like Keyonte George and Collin Sexton.

   D-Lo statement game tho. Lakers must be happy he’s increasing that trade value 👀

2. Lakers gonna be more and more desperate to make a trade with all these losses… which means reaves rui prince and the 2029 frp welcome to Chicago

3. the jazz are a joy to watch and lauri should be an all star, good game best friends from the west!!!

4. 👆what’s going on in Utah?👆

5. Collin has the best contract in the NBA, him, and Lauri, and K3Y are the reasons the Jazz won this game

6. DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

   LAKERS LOSE

7. Reaves was getting abused live on tv once again

8. Oh no we suck again!

9. Clanktony Davis with one of the least impressive triple doubles I’ve seen.

10. lakers should just stop fouling idk

11. Lakers fans are so ready to blame Bron after the first quarter lol

12. You know what I’ll just say it, the Lakers might be in trouble

13. 5/21 is such an outlier game from AD and that comes from the jazz good defense

14. So lucky Ham decided to bench Rui for that last bit. Dude was killing us.

    Keyonte George is HIM. Played with no fear.

    Good to still win even though Ochai, Kelly, Clarkson and Kessler were all trash.

    Lauri is the GOAT. Needs to be an All-Star yet again. Locked AD up tonight while almost getting 30 himself.

    John Collins is developing a solid 3 point shot. I kinda don’t want to trade him now.

    credit to THT for another DNP, bringing our streak to 10-0.

15. Lauri an all star and reaves got cooked

16. Thank you Utah from the bottom of my heart! 📯📯

      Fuck the Lakers! 😎

17. 79 points came from past Cavs legends. Take that for data.

18. NBA isn’t doing a very good job rigging for the Lakers

19. I’m convinced NBA players really hate AR15. The way he gets hounded by different players on different teams seems really personal, and not just “he’s weak on D, let’s take advantage of that.”

20. Jazz having Clarkson coming off the bench has done them wonders.

21. The biggest problem os jazz is that Lauri need to get more touches. That said, this team has heart and i’m all here for it

    Also, Lauri played some GREAT defense on AD

22. Rui Hachimura was honestly cooking as the primary option.

    then AD subbed in and the offense never recovered

23. Jazz are 11-2 in their last 13 games.. they’re coming for everyone.

24. Kris Dunn, a cheap mans Rubio?

25. Starting Reaves and DLo is defensive suicide, so easy to torch them when both are on the floor. Even with some suspect calls, some of these rotations and sets Hamas puts out are awful, idk what he should’ve done but man this team is so easy to pick holes at.

26. Would be crazy if jazz somehow makes it into the western playoffs over Lakers/suns/warriors.

27. What a bruising and clunky game. Lots of players on both sides just struggling and getting bumped around.

    But D’Angelo, Hachimura, Sexton, and Markkanen were on fire.

28. Simone, with +16 on zero points, might be my favorite Jazz stat of the year.

29. Lauri with **5** assists???

30. Warriors and Lakers lose. Today is a good day.

31. When you foul so much, the other team will get so many FT. No conspiracies today, just be better at stoping rival players.

32. lauri is so good wtf the jazz are on a roll

33. Markannen>Mobley

34. Smiling through it all, can’t believe this is my team

35. Lauri Markannen was the best player on the court tonight and it wasn’t even particularly close

36. I hope the jazz keep this roster and build around it next year, really fun to watch.

    Any call for Lauri should be hung up on
