I really want to win this
I’m mad that the schedule has us going into Utah twice on back-to-backs after playing the Lakers. Oh well.
Tonight would be an incredible win. I expect the Jazz to come out with a lot of emotion after the passing of their owner.
Yeah
Jazz win, that arena is going to be abolutly rocking. Plus the Jazz will be playing from the heart, every single one of them.
Also if you look at how the Jazz have been playing the past week or so. They have beaten the Lakers and the Celtics, wow.
New Orleans Hornets: The most inconsistent team in the NBA.
If anyone needs it.
Here’s a link to the game.

New Orleans Hornets: The most inconsistent team in the NBA.
This is terrible.
Look at my signiture and you’ll find all your answers
New Orleans Hornets: The most inconsistent team in the NBA.
So we force David West to run up and down the floor with the backups
And jack up contested, fadeaway 20 footers with 20 seconds left on the shot clock. Is the scoreboard really surprising to any one?
We'll I play FIBA rules
Here in Australia and when you foul from behind on a fast break, its a flagrant foul

I wish it was
But it isn’t. Same here in NZ. It’s kinda like a clear path foul in the NBA
Okay.
Chris here is what you need to do. Do what Deron did. When dribbling up the court dribble into the key and the defense will collapse.
What Chris does is dribbles up and just wait for a screen (which never happens). Be aggresive.

Stupid
What a stupid pass from Peja
Oh and we’re also getting owned with those pick and pop type plays..that’s like five of those from Utah
This is ridiculous.
My god. We are so bad. Can someone just say that to their faces. Why doesn’t Byron start swearing at them. They just wont play with any energy. No energy what so ever.

To Grayson
All Blacks also own you Wallabies =P
If we can come out in the second half and play some hard-nose defense for a short stretch and hit some of our jumpers then we'll be right there.
It all starts at the defensive end. When are they gonna learn? Just look at the Celtics.
Devin Brown is a basketball God!
No way you can play good defense
When Rasual Butler is playing power forward. Seriously putting Butler on Millsap? Byron Scott’s done some strange things this year, but this might take the cake
Don't go that far. I still think the San Antonio incident was far worse.

The Jazz are crazy
Hitting ALL of their open shots
When a shooter happens to be open...
SOMEONE RUN OUT THERE! DISTRACT THEM OR SOMETHING!

When that happens
I run and scream and wave my hands in the air at them. Try to intimidate them. You’d be surprised. Either they 1) get surprised and miss or 2) find it funny and miss
Did anyone see the Laker article
that was implying CP3 would sign in LA in 2011? It was quite an arrogant article.
I seen that. I just laughed. Complete and utter bull.

Thx
Of all the hilarious stuff in that article, my favorite might be him referring to Chris Wilcox as “slender.”
LOL. He's slimmer then Chandler.

I think I'm going to watch some of the OKC-GS game
they might score 270 points tonight. No defense will be played.
I think Stephen Jackson should get me around 75-80 fantasy points tonight.

my favorite part in the NYT Moneyball-esque Battier article
was that Jackson is way more effective going to his left, but goes to his right twice as much anyway.
I miss that GS We Believe team
I mean… Davis, Ellis, Jackson, Richardson, Biedrins, Barnes… that team was absolutely insane.
Sean Marks scares me every time he shoots.
This is potentially the worst thing that can happen is if he makes a couple in a row. He probably thinks he’s D-West now. But I’ll gladly take the points.
Devin Brown is a basketball God!
Btw, it's amazing what can happen when you play just a little bit of defense.
Devin Brown is a basketball God!
I think
that Portland should lend New Orleans Roy every time that New Orleans plays Utah, and New Orleans should lend Portland Paul whenever they play the Lakers.
One thing I know about Marks
I think he’s failing with his jumpers this season because he’s shooting from the middle on the pick and pops which is NOT his spot. If you notice, those two jumpers were out to the side
Good for us. He's a beast especially against us.
Sool-Bop and CP3 on FIRE!

I hope that Boozer doesn't decline his player option for next year
so that Millsap leaves. I like him as a player, but he plays for the Jazz. It’s a paradox.
Marks Defence
Wow, I never knew he could play D. The past few games I’ve been really impressed with his defence. He contained Pau Gasol last night while he was on and again tonight with Okur
Good point.
Okur ended up 1/5 against Marks tonight, with 3 assists and 1 reb, whereas he was 9/15, 1ast & 8 rebs against the others.

What is Byron waiting for? Put in CP3. Let us make our run now when D-Will isn't on the court.
Is he waiting till we’re down 15 and the games over? COME ON!
Devin Brown is a basketball God!
STOP SHOOTING SEAN MARKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Devin Brown is a basketball God!
D-West is our goto guy though. That's his job. Marks's job is to rebound, defend, and dunk. Only shoot if the shot clock is at 1.

Bull on the charge. Homer calls.

Is it just me or does Memo ALWAYS kill us.
Devin Brown is a basketball God!
LOL do you know how many times Bob Licht would say that if that was Sool's catch phrase?

And another loss
Nothing to blame it on, other than that we’re tired and that the Utah Jazz – Deron Williams >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> The New Orleans Hornets – Chris Paul
DERON WILLIAMS IS A BEAST!!!

Chris Paul is overrated

I want to play Utah when we have Tyson and see what happens.

Wow do you have any faith in this team at all?

We could win
We can win with any team. It’s just to do with energy. We have the skill to.
Doesn't matter. Boozer would limit Millsap's minutes and he kills us.

I think Tyson is gonna be a MONSTER when he comes back.
I think the trade is gonna put that spark back in him that was missing throughout the first half.
Devin Brown is a basketball God!
I did
But every time I see them play they are woeful. They just seem to be stagnent. Never run at all. Chris Paul just stands there and waits for a screen that isn’t really a screen.

It may sound funny but CP3 really misses Tyson's screens.

The rest of the schedule is completely winnable.
Tough games remaining that I can think of are the two S.A. games and the Utah game. Phoenix is easy especially without Stoudemire. Houston is easy with or without Tracy McGrady and Rafer Alston even though T-Mac tends to kill us at home. Dallas is easy and so is Denver. There you go. We should easily get to 50 wins and I think we can get to 56 again if every goes back to normal and stay healthy.
