    Why’s everyone so gloom. Utah can’t even win a home game against the Grizz.

    I'm expecting a surprise victory. It will surprise me. Harden will explode for 40+ and Capela will have a double-double. I have no idea what MCW will do, though. I'm hoping that Clark gets significant minutes and shows why he needs more. That's what I'm hoping for, that and the win.

    Yeah, they also lost against Memphis few days ago...i still like our chances, Capela usually plays well against Gobert, Favors can't stay on the floor much against us, Ingles is still a mozzarella, Mitchell probably is too full of himself, Rubio usually gets cooked by James...i just hope we come out ready and willing to fight. I'm more scared of Brothers.

    The Grizzlies actually try on defense, though.

    Typical J Sizzle, all about making excuses for other teams.

    According to Ackerman, the first three teams we played were the top 3 paint scoring teams from last year.


    So naturally these teams would exposed our weak interior defense more than usual. It just happens that we got them all three in a row..

    I just wanna see the Rockets compete defensively tonight. If they lose, oh well. Just as long as they’re putting effort in. Hasn’t been the case yet.

    1. Replaced Cousins with Randle who's also a great inside scorer
    2. Lol, they have Lebron on their team and lost randle,Lebron who is the greatest inside finisher in the history of basketball. Idk if you have been watching their games but the majority of their points come from inside.
    3. Uhhhhh De Andre Jordon has never been an inside scoring threat, sure he scores inside but lool, cmon man. Also they have Montrez who's a beast down there.

    Randle went from Lakers to Pels though and Pels did us the worst for paint scoring.
