  • heres some fun cope, the hornets are not this good, and the jazz are not this bad. rare instance of one team has a really really good night, and the other has an exceptionally bad night. 

    True, strange night for both teams, but on a normal night, it’d probably be a really fair match up. Jazz and Hornets had the same record going into this game

    And if we look at who isn’t playing for the Jazz it’s even more telling. But this was one we do need to lose for the greater good.

  • Jazz fans in the arena are not real... How do you dance while your team is behind by by 60? I guess they are all there for the show, not to watch their team.

    Boooooooo. Boooooooo! BOOOOO!

    You’re the epitome of a bandwagon. Imagine the toxic environment it would be if your biggest supporters boo’d and put you down.

    He’s a bandwagon if he is mad about his team being bad while simultaneously watching and supporting his team?

    just here to have fun, its just a game lol

    Or they are fans of their team no matter what

  • Cody Williams has the lowest box plus-minus in a game in NBA history LOL

  • Jordan Clarkson is Thriving in NYK
    Sexton is in a good spot with CHA
    Collins is a pivotal piece in CLPPERS
    Gobert and Mike are important veterans in MIN
    DON is leading the CAVS
    Royce O'neale is the glue guy in the SUNS
    NAW is a candidate for 6th man in ATL

    How are we feeling about that JAZZ NATION??
    Knowing that this year or a year after,
    One of them does have a chance to get a Chip before your team.
    And y'all want to keep stacking rookies.
    Hope y'all realize this and keep rebuilding..
    Can't wait to see Lauri or Key in a different uniform next season..
    I know Lauri is almost gone this season, but I'll take another year for my man.

    What a joke of an organization.
    And somebody bragging about 6th in all-time wins.LMAO
    Hope you read this..

    collins is a pivotal piece on the clippers

    Conley important vet in Minnesota

    LMAO

    Cleveland is suffering this season, Minnesota is good but having a major down year. Royce isn't even a glue guy for Phoenix and they're in NBA purgatory, Clarkson is alright as usual but not even worth mentioning.

    Just say you had more teachers than students in your classes and move on

    Dude just fucking stop. You come in and all you do is complain about the team you say you support now. And then try to argue and show “how much ball you know”. It’s getting fucking annoying and I’ve never seen an account tank into the negative karma so fast as you have. Shit ma give it a rest.

  • McBain clobbered that dude

  • this is a work of tanking art. id hate to be a fan in the stands tonight. i'll love to be a fan in the stands in a year!

  • Can us Jazz nerds still watching at least get some g leaguer mins? Or throw key back in?

  • The no lauri effect is crazy

  • imagine being oscar tshiebwe rn

    He's gotta be dying seeing this rebound spread

  • ok now let’s get this 4th quarter comeback

  • The biggest issue for me above all tonight is our lineup selection. We're playing multiple guards against a big team and we're giving up gobs of offensive boards. 2nd chance points can still be avoided

  • [deleted]

    Nah but still an absurd amount

  • Losing by 56? Sucks, but understandable, 0 effort while down 56 horrific.

  • This is painful, I feel bad for the fans in the stands.

    We left early. This was our one game for the season 😭

  • [removed]

    Are you not going to be a Jazz fan now after 3 games of giving shit takes? Enjoy your next team.

    Your bet didnt hit?

    I don't bet on games. What are you saying?? LMAO..
    Not everything in the world is all about gambling.
    As Jordan would say, "Stop it. Get some help." LMAO

    average jordan obsessed hornets fan. last time yall made the playoffs we didnt even have don yet lmao.

  • Flip is like a baby deer out there lately…

    Have yall tried getting his babysitter/wife to calm him with some warm milk?

  • This franchise is pathetic at this point

    pretty much a farm team

  • Guys, this is how you tank! Charlotte is an important head-to-head match-up 😂

  • Flip doodoo

  • So Cody continues to look good. The last couple of weeks have done wonders for his confidence.

    Dude needs to be locked in a gym shooting corner 3s this summer though

  • Hornets is living their days, blowout win vs defending champs and having to record one of the biggets blowout loss this year 😂

  • Even the HORNETS have a better shot at the playoffs this season.
    And it's been 2 years since Jordan sold this team.
    Can't wait to see Lauri and Key in different uniforms next season.
    Pls rebuild again JAZZ..

    hornets fan saying all this btw

    [removed]

    Don’t be a dingus

    The Jazz goal this season isn't the playoffs

    Hence the fact Lauri is out for Rest

  • Brice's effort has been nice

    Nahhh he has made obvious mistakes and misplays this game.

    Surprisingly the best player tonight tho?

    Agreed. Still a bright spot

  • Seriously how is Keyonte struggling against the Hornets lol 

    Hes not really that good, hes just the second best player on yalls team. The only guy worth anything is Lauri legitimately, dudes an absolute stud.

    Keynote is just a good player on a bad team with a front office thats stunting his growth by keeping the core players out of the line-up (Lauri is who ai mean).

    Eh i think overall this season hes shown he is legitimately good, but clearly this is just a bad game where he should take the reigns a bit more. Pretty pathetic cast around him though so I guess its easier to defend just him because everyone else is ass lol

    You cant develop if you have no stability around you and its showing tonight and the entire seaosn for yall really. Maybe he does have some potential but if the way Ainge is running things continues then Keyonte will end up being a bench rider sooner than later because they're doing him legitimately no favors tonight other than "go take the reigns guy" despite the fact hes clearly not ready for that now. He needs good vets and yall need to fucking fire Ainge asap otherwise its gonna keep getting worse.

    dudes averaging 24/4/7 in year 3 and you're talking about "might have potential" 

    Doing that on a bad team is one thing, doing it on a good team is another entirely and all hes learning are bad habits right now. Like it or not he needs the right vets to really learn how to be even better.

    Yall can get mad all day but Ainge if killing his development

    You’re just ill informed or have shit coming out your mouth. (Not a Jazz fan)

    brother, i never say this, but you genuinely do not know ball

    Im sorry, my team is up by almost 60, I came over because I wanted to say I feel bad for Keyonte because I've seen enough talent wasted by poor management and Keyonte is going through the same shit right now.

    Ainge needs to be fired and someone needs to come in and get vets to put around Lauri so that Keyonte has guy who can teach him winning habits.

    Hes got potential but at the same time he looks terrible tonight because he doesnt know how to lead a team and yet they expect him to do so. You dont have to like it for it to be fair criticism against yalls front office because thats exactly what it is.

    Nobody gives a shit about years past because right now yall have the bleakest future aside from the Nets and that wont change while Ainge is in charge.

    Kings future bleak too

    Tbh, when it rains it pours for Keyonte. I still am not worried about him at all, he's the reason we've won too many

  • [deleted]

    What’s the message?

  • They should just have the byu vs utah game on the center court monitors.

    That would be dope

  • Coach Hardy needs to go to jail for these lineups

  • Pro-tank crowd is so hot right now 

  • I just started watching, but we are losing the rebound battle 36 to 19. Obviously not having Lauri, Walker, and Nurk matters a lot but damn, Taylor and Cody need to get some damn boards. Also Flip has been sooo bad on D I just don't see it. When people drive on him it just turns a layup into a 3 point play.

  • We've got a really "volatile" team lol. One night it's taking down San Antonio fully healthy, the next it's 0-23 vs New York, and games like this

  • this is 1000% a night for the young guys to play and learn on the stage. vets klove and anderson have the least minutes played in the half (except WCJ). everyone with 12+ mins is in year 3 or less, so thats cool

    Yeah it's a great "you guys gotta save yourselves" game

  • Jazz is on a pace to have one of the biggest blowout loss in nba history 😂 no one has ever overcome the 73pt loss of okc vs memphis last 2021 😂😂😂

  • Since the Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert era ended, the Jazz have clearly been in rebuild mode. Accumulating picks and young players made sense early on, but rebuilding works best when there’s a clear sense of timing. Eventually, you have to move from collecting assets to building a functional team.

    With Key as a primary creator and Lauri as a high-level scorer who thrives off the ball, the Jazz already have a strong foundation. The focus now should be on surrounding them with players who complement their strengths—defenders, reliable veterans, and players who understand their roles.

    Loading the roster with too many unproven rookies adds uncertainty rather than stability. Young players develop best in structured, competitive environments. Utah doesn’t need to rush, but it does need direction.

    The pieces are there. Now it’s about balance, fit, and taking the next step forward.

    And playing defense

  • Our casual fans really annoy the hell outta me. They don't watch us beat San Antonio, Detroit, or nearly beat OKC if not for bad calls, but when we have some silly first quarter outing they wanna suddenly open their mouth about a failed rebuild?

    You've been rebuilding since that Jordan shot. What are you talking about successful rebuild?
    Since then, even the Don and Gobert era, you can't even go to the finals.
    What successful rebuild are you talking about??

    6th best all time win loss record in the NBA btw.

    And yet, Can't win a championship...Really?? You want to go there??

    tell me about it, Hornets fan 🙏

    Ain't even a fan..LMAO.. Got hooked by the JAZZ due to Key and Lauri. And you assumed me as a Hornets fan? Even reading comprehension is low in UTAH. LMAO
    Can't wait to see Lauri and Key in different uniforms next season. Y'all keep stacking rookie, btw. You've been rebuilding since Jordan's Shot. LMAO..

    Rebuild ain't even done. It ain't failed is my point.

    Yeah.. The rebuild isn't done coz you're rebuilding for a long time since the Don-Gobert era.
    That's the point. It's been almost 5 years, and Lauri and Key's future isn't guaranteed with this team yet. They might want to demand a trade if they are tired of losing so many games.

    Normal sized rebuild and this off-season we start spending assets when the pick situation is finally cleared due to the stupidity of their prior management. Utah will be good soon

    so you want us to cheer for this shit show

    nah I just want people to stop shitting on the team and showing obvious lack of ball knowledge. Look at our fucking big options tonight

    This

    Even the Key haters too

    His game winners, and 9 game stretch with 30, 5, and 7, they're silent

    When Key has one bad game "trade KeyNope, he's a bust"

  • I just turned the game on. We winning?

  • “Rebuild around Key and the other young guys, and give them 2 seasons! We’ll be the next OKC!”

    This sub is saying "rebuild around Key, Lauri (who isn't playing today), Walker (who is out for the season), a potential with lottery luck top 3 pick, Ace if he steps up, and whoever the Jazz sign with 40 million in capspace in the offseason"

    I don't see anyone saying rebuild and compete with a starting lineup of Key, Walt, Ace, Hendricks, and Flip

    We almost beat OKC lmfao.

    a healthy OKC too. only missing IHart and some bench guys that game if i'm noy mistaken

    and the hornets beat them by 30

    If you genuinely think that a regular season nba game means anything in the grand scheme of things, then you don’t know ball.

    The 2016 Timberwolves beat the 2016 warriors. Surely Kat and Andrew Wiggins eventually turned them into a super team!

    if you genuinely think that a regular season NBA game means anything in the grand scheme of things

    Ok so this one where Lauri, Nurk and others resting is? Cause I don't see you guys pointing out the positives when things are positive like when we're healthy and beating teams we shouldn't beat.

    No, it doesn’t mean anything. But it’s pretty hilarious. And it’s indicative that building teams solely around young guys isn’t a way to make a winning basketball team.

    I still don’t think the Lauri timeline works. Players usually reach their peak around age 27/28 (so we can say with some confidence that Lauri is in his prime), and clearly they can’t play competitive basketball with the current young guys. So even if they wait 3-4 years for the young guys to become contributing members of a potentially contending team, Lauri will probably be over the age of 30. And it’s not a winning move to make your first option a >30 year old player who wasn’t all nba caliber to begin with. Finally, during this development phase while you waste Lauri’s prime, he’s being paid over 45 million a year

    I respect this argument more lol. With Lauri, you're asking if your 2nd and 3rd (or vice versa on the order) guys can be on rookie scale or small deals while he gets 45 mil. Not a great contract, but nights like tonight show why he got his deal

  • that collier buzzer beater might ignite a run in the 2nd half. or not. im fine either way lmao

  • Collier got a fire under his ass with 2 minutes left in the 2nd for some reason

  • I find it hilarious seeing all these outsiders expecting a meltdown here

    Majority of this sub, besides that once account, and that other person are pro tank

    Lauri, Ace, and Nurkic are out, no one here is really throwing a meltdown

    This is the best possible game for a meltdown. Dropping to sixth in the lottery would be huge

    i think every knowledgable jazz fan knew a game like this was coming. it was all a matter of when, not if, lmao. we need these kinds of games both for the lottery, but also to give our young guys big minutes to experience fucking up and finding out on the NBA stage. i think this poor performance is gonna be one that the whole team remembers and works to prevent in the future.  this game was doomed from the start.

    I feel like people only show up when things are bad and for tonight they obviously were going to be lol

    Exactly

    They want the satisfaction of seeing people upset and throwing a tantrum

    Yeah, ideally, we don't lose by 40, but I'm not upset. I'm just disappointed at this team, but not in a meltdown tantrum way

  • Idk if y'all remember the 2021 matchup where we tied the 3pt make record against Charlotte, but they're getting revenge

  • Came to this sub just to see what yall think of this

    Comeback szn 🔥🔥☄️☄️

  • Flip gotta go.. That dude is the smallest 7-footer that I've seen.
    A boy trapped on a grown man's body.

  • maybe its cope but i genuinely think the FO told hardy to just let what happens happen. usually hed be screaming and shouting and prowling the sideline switching the lineup constantly, but hes not. super different energy from him and the whole team tn. 

    I agree.

    Let the kids play and learn.

  • I thought google was lying to me so I came here to confirm

  • Somehow the Hornets will blow this huge lead and the Jazz end up losing by 4

    this will either be the biggest blowout in NBA history or the biggest comeback lmaoo

  • I’m assuming fans of other teams are now here because this is the only game still going on League Pass tonight

  • Not trying to excuse the terrible score, but our only big is a 46 year old who doesn't defend at all and has a 15 minute cap seemingly

  • Without Lauri.. This team is garbage. Instead of surrounding Lauri and Key with complementary players.
    They stacked them with a bunch of rookies and players that don't fit their playstyle..

  • NBA should have a white flag rule. Sorry Jazz fans

  • Toronto raptors style basketball I like it

  • Without Lauri.. This team is garbage.Instead of surrounding Lauri and Key with complementary players.
    They stacked them with a bunch of rookies and players that doesn't fit their playstyle..

  • Deym refund the tickets!!! This is embarrassing

  • I mean, this how we are I guess with no lauri, Nurk, Bailey, or Kessler

    High Priests Church ball at best

    High Priests

    That must be an Utahism? TF are high priests? LOL!

    Men’s basketball league that’s aged 40+

    My kids are almost that.....LOL

  • um...we can put up the post game thread now i guess?

  • FO must have called and told hardy to just let whatever happens happen lmao. whole team shooting nothing but bricks from 3? leave em in! no effort on defense? leave em in! no attempts to box out? leave em in!

  • just saw the score on my lock screen and couldn't believe my eyes

  • For a team named after a type of music, they sure do love to play out of tune...

  • They should refund everyone in the crowd after this

  • Ngl you guys have more fans in audience than the hornets. 💀

  • Just checked the box score, wtf is happening

  • 28-74 is DIABOLICAL

    Against the fucking hornets too of all teams 

    Dude atleast the fucking hornets have the bragging rights that they mauled the healthy okc last time 😅😅

  • A lot of Reddit fans don't know Ball and want to tank and surround Key with a bunch of rookies.
    Instead of looking for complementary players that would fit for key and lauri.. This is just sad.
    Can't wait for Key and Lauri to find their new home. I got hooked on Utah just for these two players.

    me when i have never heard of player development lol

  • This is insane

  • Still no three point shot to be found good lord

  • Flip has been horrible the last few weeks. Getting absolutely owned by Diabate

    something really has looked off about him lately, especially mentally. i think hes experiencing a bad sophomore slump and is not handling that struggle well. im gonna hold out for him cause he looked good early but lost some drive and confidence.

  • Alright biggest blowout ever is 73 points how are we feelin

  • I hate Brian Kelly as much as the next guy, but right now, his quote about being in favor of his team’s execution feels very fitting

  • Utah has been tanking since Jordan's shot.

  • WTF is going on?? Lmao

  • One positive tonight, Cody and Collier look confident.

  • our defense is bad, and we are like forgetting to box on rebounds, but also, why are the hornets the prime warriors rn??? they're shooting 50% from three even on contested looks!! just a magical night for them 

  • just switched to this on League Pass.. had to do a double take when I saw the score

  • Whoever defended Collier and bit on the three point fake, that's on them. Collier never gonna shoot threes.

  • The win on Thursday must have really given the front office a scare.

    They can’t fine us for poor performance right?

  • I guess the whole team decider they’d rather watch the BYU-Utah game instead?

    If BYU loses to us, they should be punished by not being allowed to go into March Madness.

  • Lmao this team is sorry af

  • [deleted]

    I normally agree but like, We just almost beat OKC and no one's talking about how impressive that is lol. We have this mindset about criticising the team for these performances where we're playing old men and missing multiple guys

  • Anderson and Filipowski have to go.

    anderson yes, dude is bad. filipowski is too young to give up on tho imo. 

  • This is the game to remember what we had to do to keep our pick

  • Good game Jazzbros!! You guys really played us close and gave us a scare there! Y’all have a lot of young talent and boy, that Lauri/Georgr/Bailey sure looked good! Y’all sure will be scary next year!

    Says the hornets fan

    George has been not great tonight

    Yeah we get it

    No need to rub it in mate

    You must be watching a different game as some of those people are not playing... ;) :P

  • I'm watching the next 3 quarters

    When we get Peterson, AJ, or Cam, I can have proof of being a sicko and feel like a superior Jazz fan that I suffered watching the Jazz vs Hornets on January 10th, 2026

  • Struggling to score against the Hornets is a new low lol. Keyonte should be dropping an easy 30 points against this team not whatever this shit is lol

  • This the team that beat the spurs after they won 3 straight to okc btw🫩

    Sold their soul to shoot lights out against my team✌🏽

  • Matt McConnell in the booth? Let’s goooo

  • Screw it. We always look like garbage in historic games (MJ Flu Game, Kobe final game, etc), let's lose in the largest score differential in NBA history this game

    That would have to be +50 wouldn’t it ?

  • I’m on the radio cast thoroughly enjoying Ron Boone being perplexed by LaMelo’s whole existence

  • Byu about to start anyway

  • This is the first game in the entire rebuild since maybe GSW last year where I just genuinely felt terrible for anyone attending oh my lord.

  • So… any dinner plans?

    Cheese and tomato sammich, with a cup of yogurt. Fridge is empty, so whatever is edible is OK, LOL!

  • Embarrassing. What’s the point of a high draft pick its just going to be wasted by this org. No heart and the org actively wants to lose.

  • This has to be a record of some sort

    Nah, we've been worse this season :P

  • This is good

    It feels like we haven't lost against a bottom 8 team this season

    Us losing to bottom 8 teams will help us with the tank. This team better look like this against the 2 Mavs games in the upcoming week, as the Mavs will be tanking rivals with ADay to Davis potentially out for the season

  • Good lord we can’t rebound to save our lives

  • I'd rather watch a game like this than watch them win.

  • Ok wow this is ugly

  • It's a slaughter. Oh boy.

  • This team needs to be burned, their genuinely double teaming Key off ball becuase they know he is the only one who can do anything offensively
