Good news: New Orleans didn’t show up on defense.

Bad news: Neither did the Jazz.

The Jazz have improved their offense, at the expense of their defense, but theoretically they are better than most, still. So they *should* win, though home has less meaning than before.

Lol, when I read your first line, I was about to ask if that was a typo and you meant the Jazz.

In 18 minutes, the win probability for New Orleans went from 85.6% down to 3.5%.

Although, I still don’t like when a team is up by 20 something points with 10 seconds to go the probability will still say 99.9%.

The Jazz went on a 18-2 run in the 3rd.

Normally, it's the opposing team that does that against the Jazz.

Rudy and Ingles could airball 10 straight FTs, while the opposing team gets those rebound and make 4 point plays.

I like watching Mitchell because he plays hard on both ends of the floor.

Did the NBA get rid of the mandatory timeout with 6 mins left in a quarter?

Seems like I've watched a few games this year, with a lot more continuous action in the middle of a quarter.

When the Jazz were winning 100 to 91, they had an 84 percent chance of winning. When New Orleans made a free-throw, the Jazz’s probability went up to 84.2%. That makes no sense.

I love this new running refrain Barkley has this year, about how Gobert would have blocked Shaq's shots.

I don't know if it's true, we'll never know. But it is fun to think about, and it's fun to see Barkley have something over Shaq, since Shaq talks about rings a lot.

Thank you for joining in the game thread, @MHSL82. It made my evening to see you participate.

First time in several years, I think.
