Utah Jazz at Oklahoma City Thunder, Mar 14, 2010 5:00 PM MDT
No AK, no Memo, no Price, no problem, right? The Thunder were going to be tough enough as it was even with everyone.
According to Locke, CJ will start for AK and Millsap will take Memo's place. That's going to be a pretty thin rotation with just Korver on the bench that's part of the regular rotation. We're going to see some odd combinations on the floor tonight.
So we'll see Gaines tonight, maybe even vs. Maynor. Deron might be going 40+ minutes though, let's hope he's wearing the wrist brace. And we're in trouble if the Jazz start getting into foul trouble as well.
If we're going to pull out a win, we're going to have to have season-best type games from everyone. Oh, and don't be surprised if Durant goes for 50.

Maybe everyone forgot the time change?
by Basketball John on Mar 14, 2010 5:16 PM MDT up reply actions
lol probably.
This is going to be a long game.

Durrant
Without AK, who is gonna really be able to stop Durrant?
by scrantonicity33 on Mar 14, 2010 5:26 PM MDT reply actions
If the Jazz can keep it somewhat close I’ll be happy.

Where was this in Milwaukee?
Free Koufosenko!

Has anyone else still not forgiven Collison for that New Year's Eve game?
That was grant theft auto game. I usually don’t condone excessive violence, but I really would love to see Fes just lay him out at some point tonight. (More the refs’ fault than Collison’s, I know, but I don’t think the league would take kindly to Fes destroying a ref.)
And apparently that official is working this game
I summon you, KOOF. You have a destiny in Oklahoma City.
Need a seminar in reffing....... ya know so they won't be so STUPIT!!

watching jerry bark at the refs
i was thinking, the refs should listen to him. he has decades and maybe even a lifetime more experience playing and coaching than they do.
Is there any link to this game? I'd like to watch it. Justintv sucks and can't remember that other site
that usually has a feed of NBA games.
We need more real-hard pick and rolls performed.

I'm looking at all these players that were scrubs last year. All of a sudden Kristic is rebounding in traffic?
I know the Jazz can pull this out. Sloan is going to make some adjustment at half time and watch out.
Who wants to take bets that Jerry will get ejected?
At least he’s alert, probably ate all of his Denny’s slamdunk breakfast.

Phil Johnson
is getting a workout!!
"He is STUPID but he knows that he is STUPID and that almost makes him smart."
I signed in to say CJ Miles sucks
if that sounds like a troll it’s not cause I really do believe that
A little sexual harassment from the Jazz bear in that commercial?

I would have loved to have seen Deron dunk that one
And you know, stop complaining.
by Basketball John on Mar 14, 2010 6:29 PM MDT reply actions
doesn't deron realize that
if he complains on every single play the refs will tune him out and maybe even spread the word to their colleagues.
it’s starting to really annoy me.
i’m only being semi-facetious here but he looks like a kid since he shaved and it’s like his on-court maturity also disappeared. i don’t remember him complaining this much earlier in the season.
Yep
No idea what he’s thinking right now
Free Koufosenko!

Amazing the jazz are only down 9
Consisting the thunder have made 15 straight
by iidiot on Mar 14, 2010 6:46 PM MDT via mobile reply actions
yeah, but if that guy is Boozer. It's probably an And 1.
by BRoyInThe4th on Mar 14, 2010 6:48 PM MDT up reply actions
I wanna see if he's the defender they say he is.
"He is STUPID but he knows that he is STUPID and that almost makes him smart."
And its looking like
we might get them in the playoffs too…
Free Koufosenko!

One was a one-point game decided on a truly bogus last second foul call
The other wasn’t really close, I don’t think.
They can't guard Fesenko. Too bad he can't draw rim on the free throws.
The more you try to erase me, the more that I appear.
Hey, as bad as he's been, he's shooting free throws better than Andris Biedrins
The more you try to erase me, the more that I appear.
Check out the season FT % of the guy.

How many times last year did we say, "you have to make free throws on the road to win?"
The more you try to erase me, the more that I appear.
Sloan demands it. And apparently its his favorite thing about Wesley Mathews.

It's a very Jerry Sloan thing

These refs are busch league.
Now CJeezy will turn on the afterburners.
by KaBar6 on Mar 14, 2010 7:04 PM MDT via mobile reply actions
No quit in the Jazz. But these damn refs keep calling these touch fouls. Yet Deron got hit on the play before at the rim. Nothing.
Home cooking I guess.
He's a mediocre jumpshooter
but a great slasher.

Put in a sacrifical lamb and kknock a few on their tushes!!!!!!!

Boozer with 3 Ts in the last two games. He's such a leader.
The more you try to erase me, the more that I appear.
we're not getting a call the rest of the season
by Basketball John on Mar 14, 2010 7:13 PM MDT reply actions
We are complaining about a lot of no calls that are correct calls though. We just need to play ball.
The more you try to erase me, the more that I appear.
That's what I'm saying
the complaining is what’s going to get us no love ever.
by Basketball John on Mar 14, 2010 7:15 PM MDT up reply actions
how do you calm down a 20 something FULL of testron and all excited?
SLC Dunk #1 Jazz Site in the world!
Boozer didn't get blatantly fouled in Milwaukee and he didn't appear to get fouled when he blew that layup.
The more you try to erase me, the more that I appear.
I'll give him $5000 worth of skittles and cookies.

I shudder to think if Portland had picked him over Oden
by Basketball John on Mar 14, 2010 7:18 PM MDT up reply actions
I was just about to say: "maybe the Blazers would trade Greg Oden."

Hey..
The Orioles Suck!
Kill CJ Miles!
Play FESS More!!!
Okur Less!!!!!
I love men!
HEH!
Happy
with the way the Jazz played. Shorthanded and competed all night, even with the zombie sonics’ unconscious shooting.
by scrantonicity33 on Mar 14, 2010 7:23 PM MDT reply actions
Also
imagine having a healthy AK to help guard Durrant. That’s huge.
by scrantonicity33 on Mar 14, 2010 7:26 PM MDT up reply actions
We are in trouble now. Fourth seed looking like it would be a huge accomplishment.
The more you try to erase me, the more that I appear.
I dunno...
I think we can hold on to 4… not sure if it’s a good thing if OKC is sitting there… I’d rather get 6 and play Dallas.
I want the Thunder in the playoffs. I will take their youth over anyone else I think. Look at Portland last season.
The more you try to erase me, the more that I appear.
could have been
much worse if the Jazz hung their heads though. A little too much bitching at the refs, but other than that they played well all night imo.

This last 22 is going to take 22 minutes
by Basketball John on Mar 14, 2010 7:28 PM MDT reply actions
locke is blaming millsap
“is it too much to ask for millsap to step up for one night and carry the load?”
