Utah @ Memphis official game thread

[ElNono]

So this game is earlier than Lakeshow vs Rox... meaning that Stern can just rig this one and the Lakeshow lock up a playoff spot even before playing.

Memphis is looking for HCA with a win, as long as the Clippers drop their game against Sacto later in the night (which seems unlikely)

Should be a shitty game, seeing both teams can't really shoot for shit (except for Mo Will and Foye the odd night), and both try to play inside a lot.

But, Memphis can't be sure, huh, motherfucker? Cypher that out. They been doin' it all day on Media. tee, hee.

Memphis played Randolph and Conley about 20 minutes each against Dallas, and Marc played about 25 minutes. And its not like they were resting since it was a blowout, was a contested game the whole way. Don't expect Memphis to be playing their hearts out against Utah. However, Utah is very suspect on the road. Should be a close game, hopefully Mo and Foye hit some big 3's

I said he can, not that he will. A hot hand night from Mo Williams and Bin Harden and any rigging won't matter.

Right. They'd rather open up in Los Angeles versus Memphis. You asshole.

Has Lakers forward/center Pau Gasol called his brother, Memphis center Marc Gasol, to ask for a little help against the Jazz?

"I told him to please go out there and compete and try to win the game," said Pau.
Did he get a positive response?

"He said, 'We'll see,' because last night they played the starters 24 minutes. They probably play the same the next game," said the Lakers' forward/center.

Why didn't they play their horses big minutes against the Mavs to ensure the win, instead of keeping it close until late in the fourth?

i think you just found the Thread emoticon.

but you are right, Stern will look to fix this one since it will have less attention. smarter move by him, since even with 50 FTs, it still may not be enough against dem Rockets.

utah holding on early

[Captivus]

The problem is that Mem is better than Utah

[Kai]

I think Memphis is gonna get it going and blow them out. Hope I'm wrong...

[baseline bum]

LOL, think Zach was dropping a hint to Hollins when he pretended to come up lame earlier. Would have been more believable if he wouldn't have taken the shot that possession though.

[Kai]

Dorrell Arthur, you asshole.

[D-Wade]

Z-Bo waking up. Uh oh.

[D-Wade]

LMAO Mo Williams.

[Kai]

2 pt game at half. Color me surprised.

[Suspect]

I rather Utah lose and Lakers lose just so houston can stay ahead. embarrassing that the league let lakers catch up to us

League isnt gonna let Utah win and Lakers lose

[spurraider21]

Memphis isn't likely to keep their starters in for much longer. They had roughly the same minutes pattern vs Dallas but ended up around the 20-24 minute mark. Utah should be able to pull away

[Suspect]

Since Tmac got signed to spurs, if lakers dont make the playoffs ill become a spurfan next season. Im that desperate imo

That'd be nice, but I strongly doubt it's going to happen, tbh.... the Grizz could still possibly get homecourt, so they're going to play to win...

[spurraider21]

I know, I was wondering the same thing on Monday when they played the Mavs. That game was hotly contested the whole time, until the Grizz pulled away in the 4th, but even there, they played their main horses limited minutes. And that game was equally important as far as getting home court. We'll see

[Clipper Nation]

Mormonfaggots rolling over per par...

[Suspect]

refs steppin in?

[Reck]

Utah makes me want to gouge my eyes out.

These fuckers do not deserve the 8th spot. Memphis is giving them all the oportunity they could have and they still trail by 5. What a bunch of life long losers.

[spurraider21]

The Jazz are going to lose this game on the free throw line the way this is going

[Suspect]

fat randolph never gettin travel calls

[spurraider21]

refs steppin in?

nope. jazz have missed 7 free throws and are down by 5 :lol

[Suspect]

Refs trying to help Jazz out but mormons being mormons

[Reck]

You would have to be a nobody to get call on a travel these days.

Either that or it has to be a very blatant travel. I have no idea why these refs dont call it more often.

You see these players travelling more often than not.

At least those faggots aren't pissing away your team's only chance at resting the starters before the playoffs....

[Killakobe81]

You guys are pretty sad the last few calls some travels and fouls have went the Jazz way ...
Utah can still win this game and the refs have had NOTHING to do with it ...

Grizz defense is solid even when they play their two slow footed bigs together ...

Hollins is a solid defensive coach ...

[D-Wade]

game over

[spurraider21]

Z-Bo going ham like its 2011. Nobody came to play for Utah outside of Jefferson and Hayward. Favors giving solid effort

[td4mvp2k]

Utah sux...

[Suspect]

Conley smiling like a faggot after every play

[Reck]

Utah is physically looking scared. Look at all them faces. Like its their first time ever on a court.

[spurraider21]

:lol biggest game of the season
:lol 51 points through 3 quarters
:lol Foye 1-7
:lol Mo Williams 3-10
:lol Millsap 2-7
:lol Marvin Williams 1-6

[Clipper Nation]

M:lol Williams: once a choker, always a choker...

[StrengthAndHonor]

Yup. Utah raised the red flag. Lakers/OKC it is.

You should have the option to quit a game and dispense with further humilation. Ala video game. lol

Every second we are exposed to this travesty is a second lost to life. Seriously, this rule needs to happen.

[Bynumite]

Equivocado acerca de los Lakers tbh.

[Killakobe81]

Spoke 2 soon ...

Jazz making a run ...

[Reck]

Equivocado acerca de los Lakers tbh.

Possibly but if OKC=blown out and swept. If Spurs=out in 5m maybe 6.

[TheCultOfPersonality]

8-0 run by the Jazz

Great hustle ...

Grizz getting HCA

Grizz getting HCA

don't think they do. Only if Clips lose tonight?

[Clipper Nation]

Tbh, it's REALLY embarrassing that the Lakers were in a dogfight with this team for the playoffs :lmao

[BatManu20]

Utah tanking tbh. I know they're bad but no NBA team is this terrible without being so on purpose. These guys mentally checked out of the season already. They were planning their vacations before this game even started. I mean, they can either barely make the playoffs and get embarrassed in the frist round (and risk injury too), or they can start vacationing now. It's an easy decision tbh.

[Clipper Nation]

don't think they do. Only if Clips lose tonight?
Yeah, if the Clippers win, we get HCA.... I fully expect the Clippers to shit the bed per par, however....

damn, if Utah had T-Mac this game would be within reach :lol

Shut your piehole ...all things considered we win tonight most sins are forgiven.

No excuses but;
Clips without Paul for as many games as NAsh
Blake for as many as Pau ...
Billups ... well he missed as much or more than Blake ...

You guys looking at a 7th seed as well.

[Koolaid_Man]

Mid on pins and needles..excuse me I meant cocks and balls tonight...hoping for a Laker loss

That's one big fat excuse... and Blake is more like D12 as far as pecking order... it would be more like DJ for as many as Pau

You're kidding, right? The Clippers couldn't stay healthy all year - that's a major reason they're a 4th seed fighting for homecourt on the last night of the season instead of a top 3 seed resting the starters for the past few games...

Plus don't even bring up Mike Brown and D'Antoni, because Vinny is worse than both of them combined, tbh....

[StrengthAndHonor]

Yeah, I did. Honestly, I never thought LA would make it, but after that GSW game they are playing like mad men.

Losing grant Hill, billups butler means little tbh ...

Called it.... Vinny basically ruined our chances at getting HCA by forcing a washed-up, cold Chauncey back into the starting lineup instead of just continuing to start Willie Green...
