With Keyonte George out with what we now know is not a serious injury, and Lauri Markkanen out for rest on the back the back, the Utah Jazz had to rely on Collin Sexton, Walker Kessler, and Simone Fonteccio to step up big, and they did against the Portland Trail Blazers

Hardy coaching was alot better this game, but its the trailblazers, lets keep up the momentum to Sacramento, this team plays pretty well in a high pace offense, but i doubt that will happen ccuz our 7 footers wont keep up for long, good game, good coaching, hardy actually was up the whole game and noticed the rhythm of the game and letting the hot hand stay in the game a little longer, Sacramento is gonna be tough cuz they mastered the fast pace offense
Copper flag would be awesome
I don’t even watch the games, just James. Today was a good day.
Nice win by the Jazz! I could see KG3 getting the next triple-double or Olynyk. Dark horses would be Sexton and THT.
I love the show! I’m a big X-men fan and couldn’t help noticing your Chris Claremont bookmark!!! 🙏🙏
Ewing theory bs without Ewing they wouldn’t got out the 1st round that year against Miami it was a zo vs Ewing battle then Ewing got hurt they ran in to the spurs y’all don’t think they could of use a healthy Ewing against the twin towers that year
Taylor is a great defender he needs more minutes 4sho
To be a Ewing theory candidate you have to be good
ask Danny Ainge to join you one day, if you don't ask you don't get 🙂
btw. pistons channels lament that we are shoving John Collins down their throats .
Tht +31, but yeah collin led the way. …. This dude is a kg bone riding moe ron
Happy to see Simone getting minutes and playing well after almost not playing at all last season. And Walker played really well. Collin cant be a starting guard. So Jazz fans were bitching about a true star like Donovan Mitchell for being a sort guard just to get happy about an even shorter and C- version of Donovan? If Sexton doesnt want to be 6th man this place is not for him. Happy for THT become a good trade asset.
Proud of the guys. Yes it was against the Blazers but this was also a back to back on the road while we were missing so many players. Loved the fight last night. Very excited too about Hendricks. He has a little bit of Bam in his game although Bam is obviously the better playmaker but TH looks to be the better 3 pt shooter.
Would love to add a 6'6" playmaker such as Castle or Topic to this group as I think they need one of these types if they are rolling out Kessler/Lauri/Hendricks lineups. Can't expect Key to be our only playmaker in the starting lineup. Really hope they keep Sexton, Tecchio, KO, Agbaji, Dunn, and Sensabaugh as our bench pieces. That team might be too good to tank for Cooper Flagg. Can see some glimpses of a very bright Jazz future.
Was at the game… Yurtseven has the worst hands I have ever seen. Scoot was very impressive, oozes with talent.
Taylor + Walker = Kendricks
Why would anyone want Collins and his contract?
Call them the “defender duo”!
