Alright, i'm rewatching the game. He got stripped by Oladipo on play 1 and threw a pass that was deflected by Turner and caught by Joe Young on play 2. Overnight they changed the first play to a steal. So I guess somebody reviews the scoring.

All stats are reviewed.

I remember one game last year Russ had a trip dub taken off him.

He would have been so salty.

Add those up and it's 41. Houston's last loss was to New Orleans. Golden State's last loss was to Portland. Meanwhile the Jazz are 16-2 over the last 18 with losses to Golden State and Portland. The West man.
And Portland's last loss was to Utah.

Nah guivre has nothing to worry about at this point. Jazz basically picked up three W's last night, one for their awesome win, one for Nuggs losing, one for AD going down and giving them the game in a couple days imo. I had them at 45 wins and just out a couple days ago, now I think 47 and the #5/#6 seed is definitely in play.

That's 7/4 at worst
They'll likely face the Pelicans sans AD.

Yeah this is why I have Denver out as of now. IMO a lot of what we'll see will come down to who plays the Lakers well at Staples and how good Jimmy is when he comes back.. For example if he's bad in their final game I could easily see Denver stealing that and knocking them out.

I don't really want to say it, but someone's got to:

How many times you think Rose has watched Thibs plow one of his girls?

Meh, i'm slightly positive on Derrick Rose for nothing. He's better than Aaron Brooks.

I mean, it probably won't work out but standing pat isn't better imo.

I thought Rose was the watcher, and it supports why Thibs would sign him.


Agree with Jay though, I don't think the signing is really as lol as people are making it out to be.

Depends on if they play him. Isn't Tyus the backup... who should be starting?

How is adding a player that will 100% have a negative effect on the team not that bad? I'm assuming Thibs won't be able to resist playing him.

I guess these kinds of moves are expected from a team paying wiggs 29/yr.

It's fine so long as DRose doesn't see the court, leave the team for personal reasons, talk to the other players on the team, complain in a passive-non-aggressive way about his situation ...

otherwise no downside at all

The bar for 'playable off the wolves bench' is incredibly low due to the GM screwing the pooch big time last offseason.

No blocks either. But ORL was only +4 on rebounding.

Guessing Vuc hung around the perimeter all game.

I never understood the hate on Rose.

Because he said he cares more about being healthy at 40 than destroying his body over basketball? Or that some club thot invited him and his boys over at 3am and didn't expect what she got...

obvs "we men" is a pretty terrible answer considering how society is wrapped up in political correctness but at the end of the day, it's nothing untrue. If some girl you met hit you up with the hotline bling at 3am then I hope you sure as hell go over as a 'man' and not to Netflix...

This is all to say I hope he does well in Minny and revitalizes his career. He's only 29.
