    If you want to win a championship, you stay. Period.

    He deserves to be crucified over that 8 second backcourt violation turnover (there was no backcourt pressure either... just lazily walking it up). I believe they were up 5 at the time... with momentum, a chance to go up 7 or 8, and the Nuggets in retreat mode.

    Strangely enough, they never mentioned it again as any sort of "turning point", but it was as bad of a turnover as one can have in any game period... let alone a playoff game.

    Imagine if Harden scored 57 in a playoff game and lost. He'd be verbally destroyed on Twitter.

    Labeling Mitchell a choker or saying this loss is on him, when he had 57, is really weird.

    Jazz are missing their second leading scorer and one of the better PGs in the league, going against one of the deepest teams in the league.

    There's no way the Jazz should have been in the game. It's not MIL-ORL or BKN-TOR levels of bad, but there is a huge discrepancy.

    Yeah, Devner is stacked too.

    They should have won that game by more if anything. Losing that game would have been devastating for them.

    That was awesome, but needing 57 to force OT, pretty much tells you unless Denver doesn't take care of business that this series is over. Murray went nuts in OT, although game should've been won in regular time.

    Man, Grant has been booty in this series defensively. He was getting rocked Game 1 and he is getting toasted in Game 2.

    If it wasn't for Murray going crazy in OT game 1, Utah would be up 2 games.

    Mitchell is having a field day against Denver. EG would have shut all that sh-t down.

    Another easy W for the Jazz. Nugs have no answer.

    This series is, at least, watchable as opposed to the Raptors v. Nets. Still, both teams are lunch meat for the real contenders.
