How does Utah win next game if WB and PG13 played like they did today? I think it will really depend on WB. When he's on, he and PG13 could carry the scoring load for OKC. Utah isn't a team that scores a lot of points.

They have to figure out what they're going to do about OKC switching the screens. They won't win another game if they don't.

One hour ago Donovan was a terrible coach who was going to lose his job and Mitchell was a top 40 player in the league. Westbrook was garbage and PG was already booking his flight.

Now everybody “RW is the MAN!!!”

PnR with WB and Adams. Utah can't defend it. ISO ball is working out great for PG13 though.

For Utah, if you put a body on Ingles, they literally only have Mitchell as a scorer and some Gobert putback. Rubio had like one good game then he disappeared.

Is the Utah crowd loud? Yep. Will it help the Jazz close out the series? Probably not.


It was the best playoff crowd this year in Game 3 noise wise in my opinion. The fans make it very hard to win there, I think you are underestimating it.

I played basketball in loud environments. When you can't hear the ball bounce of the floor due to noise, it is strange and can cause problems as you really can't practice for what it is like to play in front of a loud, hostile crowd.

I guarantee Utah wins Game 6 and likely by double digits.

I still hate Westbrook. This game changes nothing. Dude had a phenomenal game.

Utah is going to regret this loss, sadly. OKC is going to win this series in 7. Unbelievable. This is a 54-24 run.


I don't see it.

The Utah crowd will be formidable in Game 6, I really believe they are good for about 6 points.


They woke them up. OKC is finally switching off screens. They win this series in 7 now. I'd love to be wrong, I promise you.


Maybe. I think Utah wins close on Friday night. That said, Utah has some limited talent. Only one guy who can create his own shot.

Utah crowd could only do so much. WB has had terrible games. That's why OKC lost. If he played like this again in Utah, I don't think the crowd is going to help much.

He’s on when Favors and Gobert go in foul trouble due to phantom calls. After that, they were no longer allowed to be defense.

Ain’t gonna happen at Utah.

Nothing happened to us, it happened to the Jazz. If OKC isn’t good enough, they will lose and he will come. If they are, then he wouldn’t have come anyway.

There is no way a team down 3-1 to the friggin Utah jazz is good enough to win the championship. OKC will lose to houston next round or GS in the round after that, they just aren’t very good.
