    I knew this team would be more fun to watch without standing around watching LA put up stupid shots.

    Yep and Utah played their stars if you want to call Hayward a star.

    Yep. You must live this team without Aldridge and Batum.

    BTW, LA had 9 points tonight on 4-14 shooting. Better give him 30 shots a game so he can keep his scoring average up.

    Burke, Hood, and Ingles shot 10-13 from the 3, but then their coach wanted to see the rest of his team, and we came back in the 4th quarter. It's just an exhibition game. I wish we'd drafted Withey.

    McCollum in the 4th shot like a rookie Lillard. Davis had not only 13 rebounds, but 4 blocks. Crabbe is sometimes a nifty shooter, often not. Vonleh is strong and steady enough to start now.

    I think having so many days off might made us little rusty tonight. 4 quarter came off tonight but we Dame and CJ play over 40 mins. Any one know the deal on Aminu tonight. Any win is good win. Now Stotts what are you going to do when Davis out play Plum.

    McCollum had not only 26 points, but 9 assists. Lillard had not only 32 points, but 7 turnovers.

    I think Coach was just giving Harkless run to take a look at him instead of Aminu. He said it's not fair to just pop a player in and out of a game for a few minutes and expect them to play their best. That is also why Pressey played and not Frazier. What is great about tonight is that we found our 4th quarter rally unit: Dame/CJ/Crabbe/Davis/Vonleh.

    Nice comeback against the Jazz scrubs but I don't want to see Dame playing 42 minutes again the rest of the season. The difference between 25 and 30-35 wins means nothing after the season but make a HUGE difference when it comes to Draft position. This season should be about development of 10+ players so you can see what you have for down the road and then add an impact player in the Lottery. THEN next year play the guys who have developed with court time and add in a Simmons/Skal/Murray/Brown/Bender and this team gets good in a hurry with no pressure on the Lotto pick to carry the team.

    Yeah he tried to get cute, but four turnovers were because Plumlee can catch and run, but not at the same time.

    sounds like my prom date.

    Nah, I'm only kidding. I didn't have a prom date.

    It's never too late. Why don't you go to a message board, wear your heart on your sleeve, and publicly admit that you have no prom date?

    What do you have to lose? The worst that can happen is that everyone laughs at you.

    In CJs postgame interview, he said he came out soft in the 1st quarter, and was settling for too many jumpshots so he decided to be more aggressive and he went on a scoring tear. It's nice to see a guy be able to check himself and pick it up when necessary.
