I don't really care much about either the Celtics or Wizards, but hey at least a game is on.

Really looking forward to Clippers Jazz game. If the Clippers win it'll be a cool LA vs Bay Area matchup.

Yeah it doesn't matter to me who wins between Boston and Washington and just looking for a great series.

We now know that a 16-0 lead in the first qtr of a NBA game means nothing. lol Washington lead the Celtics 16-0 and 22-5 and somehow the celtics managed to get back in the game and only down 42-37.

Now down by 11.

The Jazz are clearly a much more energetic and intense team than the Clippers who seem to be going through the motions. Better ball movement, better hustle, etc.

I;m shocked, I thought the Clippers would come out like the Wizards did and be up 22-5 but the Jazz has come back to LA and not showing signs of quit.

The others besides Paul and Jordan need to step it up.

Reddick is atrocious.

The Clippers are done.

Looks like Paul tweaked his foot.

Rudy has been out much of game with foul trouble, and the Clippers couldn't even take advantage of that. The difference between the two teams is like between night and day. Every Jazz player on every possession is rotating, moving, hustling without the ball. The Clippers just stand there and they all look like they don't want to be there at all.

Hopefully the Jazz will put this Clippers team out of misery soon, I'd rather have a hungry and motivated team take on the Warriors.

Well I won't see it's over yet since the NBA is a game of runs but the Jazz are in position to win this game up 61-46

What Utah is doing right now is how you protect a lead


Don't shoot 3's on every possession because if you miss that leads to fast breaks on the other end and speeds the game up

Driving to the basketball on each possession and using up the shot clock which maintains momentum and keeps the home crowd out of the game.

No fade away shots which decreases the chances of you making the shot. So the goal is to drive closer to the basket and get a good shot to maintain or increase the lead.
