LMAO what was that montage of Dirk and all his techs or flagrants against the jazz

12
DeathBySuplex[UTA] Dell Curry•

Yeah

As bad as it was that Gordon Hayward left, I think Mitchell landed in the best situation for his development.

11
DeathBySuplex[UTA] Dell Curry•

Utah’s player development is a bit underrated and I think it might be a reason (along with playing alongside Mitchell and Gobert) drawing a bigger name free agent... not KD level but a Khris Middleton Tier All Star

d7h7nMavericks•

this starting lineup is probably the worst in the league

10
SpecCRA[GSW] Jason Richardson•

Donovan's vision is so underrated. He does a great job finding people in the corners.

DeathBySuplex[UTA] Dell Curry•

Yet people say he’s a chucker and doesn’t pass 🙄

SpecCRA[GSW] Jason Richardson•

Sometimes I wonder if any loud people watch basketball at all

6
DeathBySuplex[UTA] Dell Curry•

They don’t they just look at a stat sheet and make assumptions

5
Open_Complaint[DET] George Yardley•

People say he is a chucker because they look at his ts%

2
DeathBySuplex[UTA] Dell Curry•

TS% doesn’t show context of him tossing up end of quarter heaves or him getting passed the ball with four seconds on the shot clock and asked to bail out the offense so he has to put up something from wherever.

Remove those 5-6 shots a game and his shooting is fine.

KP looking like a Bond villain with that haircut and the turtle neck under the suit.

chrimewave[UTA] Donovan Mitchell•

any european east of like berlin is gonna look like a bond villian when wearing turtlenecks

4
DeathBySuplex[UTA] Dell Curry•

I mean most anyone would with the turtle neck under the suit.

The haircut just emphasizes the look.

3
chrimewave[UTA] Donovan Mitchell•

bond villians also have a history of being like soviet bloc

cus obviously that is who the british secret service would be generally going after

bigg_peteJazz•

He really does!

chrimewave[UTA] Donovan Mitchell•

alec burks was playing 30 minutes a game on the cavs and barely gets any run in Sacramento

i personally think burks is pretty good so that tells you about the kings rotation

8
chrimewave[UTA] Donovan Mitchell•

19/23 for 50 points for our 2 starting big boys last night O_O

helps that we scored 146 but still that fg percentage

7
bigg_peteJazz•

Against Adams as well

1
CaptainShellOPJazz•

Hopefully we won't get blown out by 50 again

6
Quadriporticus[DAL] Raef LaFrentz•

No Luka tonight, so 30 sounds about right.

5
Squirrel_DudeMavericks•

Luka and Maxi Kleber are out. Mavs are shorthanded, to say the least.

3
rvadarocketMavericks•

With no Luka or Maxi we’re gonna get rocked..... ugh

6
SixInTheStixJazz•

Utah played double OT last night. It will be closer than I feel comfortable with.

9
TheNakedPriestzTimberwolves•

I have this really weird fantasy where a magic genie gives me three wishes and I use one to have dirk wake up feeling like he is 22 years old again

So he’s able to run and dunk and shit and basically wins an mvp at age 42 with Luka as his side kick and scientists are baffled how this guy is so athletic at his age. He becomes the perfect modern basketball player dropping 28 on 50/50/90 and he has no idea why he feels so good

But I know, and I take no credit because I brought renewed joy to the sport of basketball

SebbyHafen[UTA] Donovan Mitchell•

Scott Foster making some clutch plays this game

Roberto_SacamanoJazz•

We look tired AF

OKC lost to kings

1
DeathBySuplex[UTA] Dell Curry•

Kings are legit

3
chrimewave[UTA] Donovan Mitchell•

harpring: short

shot is way long hits the backest part of the back iron

6
chrimewave[UTA] Donovan Mitchell•

full disclosure i like harpring now i think he got shit a few years ago for good reason but hes gotten better and harpring sux memes are dead

3
chrimewave[UTA] Donovan Mitchell•

im still tired from last night and i barely played

5
Roberto_SacamanoJazz•

If that kings/thunder game goes to OT they might die of exhaustion

5
Roberto_SacamanoJazz•

How is that not a T? Wtf?

5
JurisDogeJazz•

Needs to be a T. If they don't call it, it only encourages retaliation.

Would have been a double tech if Jae shoved back, so why not a single tech since he didn't?

5
DeathBySuplex[UTA] Dell Curry•

And it’s not like the shove needed to happen Burke didn’t seem agitated and Crowder was just fighting for a board the shove was just petty.

OPERATION WILLIAMSON IS A GO, REPEAT, WILLIAMSON IS A GO

You guys would be insane if you got Zion

5
DeathBySuplex[UTA] Dell Curry•

Fatigue but this is ugly basketball both ways.

This is Jazz/Grizzlies level ugly.
