Refs = terrible
Blazers inability to get the ball to the post = terrible. Roy not passing to a WIDE OPEN Rudy = priceless…assuming you’re a Jazz fan.
I hope nate turns over the snack cart. Ugly UGLY!

Rudy wasn't WIDE OPEN
but he would at least have been able to get a shot off. Very poor play by Roy there.
Boomshakalaka
It would be nice if the refs would start calling fouls on Okur.
He’s pushed off at least 3 times that I’ve seen and gotten away with it.
he get's 5 freebies each game...still has one to go

need some better D
The two units were equally bad that half. On offense I’d like to see the ball go into Aldridge almost every time, and Oden a few times. We have a size advantage and are not using it.

Oden was robbed on that block
as well right when we were getting momentum ARGH!!!!

He's an absolutely amazing actor but he's underappreciated.
"Aneurysm".
When Outlaw wins a game on a last-second shot, it’s called an "annthefaneurysm". QualityPie
He's got a point
Constitutionally there’s something called “executive privilege.” What it means is that as long as the president is doing something “in the course of his duties” he can’t be prosecuted criminally without being removed from office first. And impeachment is a political act, not legal.
whaa happen?
One great thing about the movie is that they NOT portrait him as a caricature but as a guy who did good things and was an entertaining guy

Well Blazers should loose this one.
They don’t look like they believe they can win in Utah.
And Oden, once again, is a rookie, so non-stop fast break basketball is like fast-forwarding a song while he's trying to learn the lyrics.
Halftime thoughts from a Jazz fan.
I will grant you that the officiating has not been good. But the Jazz are ahead because Okur is playing lights-out, the Blazers are shooting too many jump shots, and their defense has been lackluster when the Jazz commit to ball movement.
Blame the refs if you like, and I won’t disagree. But that’s not the whole story.
Uh, do you think you could draw me like a ninja?
not the whole story at all
but a significant part of the story. No Jazz starter has a foul.
Boomshakalaka
I agree with you
We need to hammer you in the post and there is not excuse not to!

I'm mad at Okur, but it's not his fault.
He’s pushing off but he’s also playing great. You can’t fault him for doing it if the refs are letting him.
He tried to bank in a 3 like turkey glue on his first shot
but it didn’t work.

We are seriously missing Martell right now.
And Aldridge can’t disappear again. Needs to attempt at least 4 buckets every quarter,.

I could be wrong

Im starting to hate national media
The scrutiny is just ridiculous.
Jeff Van Gundy, a guy I usually like, doesn’t shut up at times when he needs to if you know what I mean.
Charles Barkley honestly isn’t as wise as people say he is and doesn’t really know that much about the team or basketball from a coaching perspective. He’s just an analyst that dumbs it down for everybdoy.

Of the #1 cable show of all time that no one has ever watched.
Or maybe it’s #1 in most promos on one channel all-time. It does appear that TNT believes basketball fans would like to watch it and are extremely forgetful.

I hate that our response to falling behind by 10 is to jack up a 3. Take it to rim and get to the free throw line!
we're not getting to the FT line today
no matter how hard we take it. This game is in SLC, where the Jazz never commit a foul.

This is nothing new in Utah
They got used to superstar treatment with Stockton and Malone and it has never changed. That, and Smeg Head Sloan trains every player to hack and slap on every defensive possession, and it desensitizes the refs from calling it because they see it every night.

aren't you ashamed to be the beneficiary of officiating like this?
michelle you look good tonight.. ANYTHING IS POSSIBAAAAAAAAAAL!
No.
We need every win we can get, especially in division.
Besides, the Jazz now have more total fouls, and have only shot five more free throws.
Uh, do you think you could draw me like a ninja?
but i mean like
in a broader sense. the jazz play dirty basketball. malone era teams did, and boozer era teams do. my childhood was semi-defined by a gash over brian grant’s eye thanks to a not-called malone elbow in the western conf. semis. it’s just ugly basketball.
however.
if the blazers want to try and out-finesse a team like the jazz, they don’t deserve to win. end of story.
michelle you look good tonight.. ANYTHING IS POSSIBAAAAAAAAAAL!
Malone's elbows
had minds of their own. I did feel bad about how wild he was with those, of course I did. And Stockton certainly bent the rules at times.
By and large, though, these Jazz don’t play that way. They foul a lot because they’re not great defenders, not because they’re dirty.
Uh, do you think you could draw me like a ninja?
Malone's elbows had one mind
the one that was in his head. I won’t believe for a second that any one of those wasn’t intentional.

Oden is afraid of hurting that knee. You can see it. He only wants to jump straight up. If he runs and jumps
I think he is worried he will get injured again.
It's not that he's afraid
that knee isn’t 100 yet, he doesnt have the strength to elevate

the Blazers have played a game every other night for the last month now. No two. three day breaks but the relentless grind of a one day on, one day off.
That’s insane.
Our schedule is not that tough in terms of rest days as one might think. Middle of the league
Some teams are just still a bit too much for us on most nights

But given the team’s brutal schedule, I really don’t think this game is indicative of all that much.
just a lesson that our defense isn't nearly good enough to play 5 on 8

I drew the original too.
Deron said I got his nose wrong, but they made me do it crappy like that so Gilbert could seem more “relate-able”.

Every child must be encouraged to get as much education as he has the ability to take. We want this not only for his sake-but for the nation's sake. Nothing matters more to the future of our country: not military preparations-for armed might is worthless if we lack the brain power to build a world of peace; not our productive economy-for we cannot sustain growth without trained manpower; not our democratic system of government-for freedom is fragile if citizens are ignorant.

CP3 > Rose > Deron
I think Rose will be better quite soon. Plus Deron has ugly tatoos. Ugh.

I'm going to snooze because we looze
Honestly I think I’d rather have Williams

How did a Boozer
even wind up in a dry, god-fearing town like Salt Lake?
What kind of message does that send to the children?
maybe that's why they are boozers
because they are afraid of god

It is an ultimate irony.
I think they’ll let him go after this season. He’s ugly and Milsap is really good.

Some positives out of this game. Aldridge and Roy are clearly better than last year. Oden is improving,
If we just hit the 3 ball today the out come would have been very different. One game at a time.
Both teams played hard.

It is a loss but it is to a top level team
not a bottom dweller. No one wins every game. Orlando is a top three level East Coast team. So 2 losses in a row should not be overly concerning.
Now the team has to get ready for the Clippers in 21 hours.

Rice was particulary senile tonight.
Made for an enjoyable watching experience. He had some great lines… left Barrett scratching his head.

Rice was very perceptive as usual.
He just could not remember where they were a few days ago after 5 road games in 8 or 9 days.

Someone Explain
Why are you guys associating Rudy’s image to that of Castro’s executioner, Che Guevara?
lol I was wondering that myself....
but it’s a sweet picture and a good play on words.
