    I don’t understand how players getting locked up by Herb just don’t break down crying.

  2. BI masterclass. Trey as well. Best win since ASB. Nice little break then we gotta build off this

  3. Prestigious-Peach485

    If you would told me we win by 20 with zion having 6 shot attempts I woulda never believed it lol

  4. Great game by everyone. Happy for Jonas who demonstrated that he is playable. Also great to see BI at his full potential, he just needs to be more consistent. Zion had a bad game but great to see Pels handling a good team with a bad Z game

  5. BatmanHive

    Now take care of the 3 bad teams in the next 3 games, also this team should have some good rest after 6 games in 9 days dumb schedule.

  6. SpaceAfricanJesus

    That’s one way to respond. Starting 5 was excellent at the start of both halves.

    BI and Trey had a masterclass. It was front loaded in the first half especially for Trey, and BI had 19 in the first quarter. BI hit a lot of tough shots, Trey was perfectly working in the flow of the offense minus a shot or maybe 2. Even his misses were in rhythm. We know BI can play this effectively, maybe not 34 points with this efficiency but somewhere around this, but Trey’s had 2 really good games out of the last 3. I’m hoping this is a sign for him going into the playoffs.

    Zion didn’t have a good game, although not nearly as bad or ineffective as the box score would suggest imo. The turnovers were the biggest problem for sure, although 1 of those was a hospital pass from Naji (who played really bad tonight overall). He did a lot of little things well like tip the ball for rebounds, set screens, and could’ve had even more assists if Trey, Jose made a couple more wide open 3s, not that I’m complaining about the 3pt% tonight overall. Also set up JV for a layup who then proceeded to get mauled under the basket with a no call.

    Only gripe I really had was going 18-26 from the line as a team. 17 turnovers but I think they only had 10 through 3 quarters.

    Shoutout to Herb Keyshawn Jones for being the primary reason Haliburton was held to 0 points. Make him all defensive first team now.

  7. GunSlingrrr

    We finally saw BI Z action in 4 consecutive plays in 3rd quarter and it resulted to easy points (and a bunch of open looks because of this too) and Trey finally move instead just ball watching with Point Z.

    You can see they really works well together, they just need that action together and be active offball

  8. Aggravating-Lake-717

    Easy win! 

    Can’t wait to see Z next game. Can’t wait to rep our team in the stands 

  9. SpareAd6504

    Anyone else watching kings wolves game, desperately rooting for twolves

  10. Mesame121489

    Herb had Hali in jail all night. I love it.

  11. I know that this win feels good, but I could really use a Doomer to explain to me why it shouldn’t.

  12. P0w3rline24

    All that really needs to be said here is WHAT A FUCKING DREAMBOAT!
    ETA: Having done this in previous years, today feels like the right moment. If you never get to a game because you can’t afford it, drop me a message and I’ll chip in to get you there. To be clear I’m not rich, but I am high on hope

    Player stats for March 1 2024:

    Jose Alvarado: 9/3/2

    Nikola Jokic: 0/0/0

    And yet some people still think mvp is up for debate???

  14. DankSinatraSr

    Pels are flockin
    Blender was rockin

    Now hit that mf anthem.

    Side note: Willie has got to start playing Hawk over Naji. Plain and simple. Dude is out there runnin laps and getting -13 ratings in 30 point blowouts.

  15. Argenfarce

    Please play that fucking awesome victory video you guys always do with the DJ Khaled song

  16. Pikachude123

    disappointed in how zion played today, but BI played out of his mind today
