I can't stand that they're called the Utah Jazz. I wish they would relinquish that name to New Orleans.
I agree. There's nothing Jazzy about em or their city. New Orleans should give their name back to charlotte as well. I wonder what monicker would fit Utah.
I can't speak for the overall opinion, but to me the team seemed pretty tired and pretty down. The Jazz rolled us up in the second quarter and we didn't seem to have much fight. I know Harden was sick, might not have been the only one. As I remember, this was the first of Patterson's run of big offensive games though. He scored 19, then 20 against the Bulls, 10 against the Knicks in much fewer minutes, then 22 against Toronto and 27 against Oklahoma City.
Both Harden and Asik were sick in the first match up. They did start the game but clearly a liability on the floor with multiple missed shots and TOs (Not their fault because they were really sick, I still blame the coaching staff). We were down by 20 in the 2Q and the chemistry/rotation screwed up big time and never been able to recovered. IMO, Rox is the better team when healthy. Coaching team has to have a better back up plan than last time if Parsons is not 100%. A sure win tonight 105-95. :grin:
