Game 43: Utah Jazz (22-20) vs Golden State Warriors (18-22) - Postponed

Post #1 » by **Inigo Montoya** » Wed Jan 17, 2024 9:53 am

Moses Moody, Chris Paul and Gary Payton II are OUT for the Warriors.

This is another opportunity to gain an advantage in the playoffs race and make the Warriors even more desperate for a trade.

We are rolling, so I expect a win... but you have to respect always Warriors.
They are on the decline, but they are 4x champions, so a big game for them it's not something unexpected.

We'll see... by the way I hate to watch Dray to play. I only hope he doesn't do something vs Lauri, since he likes to attack euro guys.

He had Markkanen on his podcast last season and they seemed to be friendly enough, not that I'd put anything past Green's proclivity to attack other players. Maybe he'll try something with Fontecchio.

I hope Kessler comes in to the game with a chip on his shoulder, grabs every rebound and plays suffocating defense in the paint. Coach Kerr barely gave any minutes to Kessler in World Cup last summer, notwithstanding the small USA team was frequently outrebounded and outplayed by big European centers.

Wow, it must be very serious. I hope he recovers from whatever it is.

My best wishes for him.

Thinking in Jazz perspective, one day more to rest. I didn't understand 2 back to back at home so close, being jazz one of the team with more games played. Still it's sad it's due this kind of news. I hope he fully recovers.

46 - WAAAAY too young! My heart goes out to his wife and children. I hope they have the long term love and support it is going to require, not only from each other, but from close family and friends as well as the NBA as a whole.
