Not sure how much the Jazz have left in the tank after that loss to the Rockets and they're playing on the road. The Kings could really use a W so it could get ugly.

Markkanen out for the year with another fake injury.

I think this is the most blatant tank in NBA history.

It's definitely tanking, no denying that. The most blatant tank in NBA history? Not even close.

You don't even have to go back that far, San Antonio last year was much more blatant.....

I’ve seen (much) worse in the NBA but probably the most blatant one in our history yes…

Yep. The fact that they were tanking all season long and then by the end of it decided they need to tank even harder so they sat out all their starters (who at couldn't win 20 games) against the Jazz was ridiculous and blatant even by NBA tanking standards. And somehow they're on pace to win even less games this season after they added Wembanyama, which is just silly.

Hendricks and the Sensei (sounds like a TV show) were decent, or at least made their shots, which is better than not making them. George continues to struggle with scoring efficiently.

I have to say that while I really like Keegan Murray, being forced to hear that annoying chant every time he scores gets old really fast to the point that it makes me wish he'd never score another basket. If the Jazz somehow traded for him and I'd be forced to listen to 42 games a season of the crowd doing this chant every time he scores I'd have to find myself a new team to follow simply because of the irritation factor.
