MILLSANITY!
by Starscream210 on Apr 9, 2012 6:37 AM CST

I’m excited for the Patty era. It’s good to see somebody who looks as excited as I would be to play NBA ball, but who’s … y’know … good enough to play NBA ball.
by Rand on Apr 9, 2012 6:41 AM CST

Hah! I thought he was talking about Millsap at first!
by MiniMegaMoose on Apr 9, 2012 6:44 AM CST

I quite like Paul Milsap, but I don’t think he quite rates an insanity monicker. I have Milthusiasm, though.
by Rand on Apr 9, 2012 6:47 AM CST

Millthusiasm: sounds like the John Stuart Mills philosophy.
by SpursfanSteve on Apr 9, 2012 6:56 AM CST

Yes! I was wondering why this sounded so not exciting.

Hey man, JSM rocks! Utilitarianism in the hizzie!

Timmeh with the dunk!
by anirontag on Apr 9, 2012 7:15 AM CST

TIMMEH WITH THE VERTICAL
by play_splitter on Apr 9, 2012 7:15 AM CST

Who resurrected Timmy?
by hurts2bgood on Apr 9, 2012 7:15 AM CST

This? This is one hell of a team. And they’re not even really trying…
by Rand on Apr 9, 2012 7:16 AM CST

It’s like the swordfight in Princess Bride. “I know something you don’t know. I am not left-handed.”
by Rand on Apr 9, 2012 7:17 AM CST

This team is unbelievable. I can’t believe how many lineups we have.
by MiniMegaMoose on Apr 9, 2012 7:42 AM CST

Oh no Splitters got dunked on
by hurts2bgood on Apr 9, 2012 7:45 AM CST

well at least he is not blake griffin … nobody cares about favors

This Utah team is going to be very good in a couple of years, a lot of talent
by spursfan87 on Apr 9, 2012 7:48 AM CST

Utah has been going to be very good in a couple of years for more than a decade now.
by Kondor on Apr 9, 2012 7:52 AM CST

Pretty much
by alamobro on Apr 9, 2012 7:52 AM CST

We are missing a lot of 3s
by spursfan87 on Apr 9, 2012 7:56 AM CST

And still leading by 15!
by MiniMegaMoose on Apr 9, 2012 7:57 AM CST

and they have 0
by cuentaluis1 on Apr 9, 2012 7:58 AM CST

Wow, Diaw plays great D
by Dark Black on Apr 9, 2012 7:57 AM CST

Diaw just stands over the defender and they feel like they’re being absorbed by jelly or something. Like trying to stomp Jabba da Hut.

I miss Sloan.
by CapHill on Apr 9, 2012 8:03 AM CST

I felt really bad for the guy.
by Dark Black on Apr 9, 2012 8:04 AM CST

Us too
–Utah Jazz Organization
by Josh Guyer (completely deck) on Apr 9, 2012 8:04 AM CST

I’m sorry
–Deron Williams
by Dark Black on Apr 9, 2012 8:05 AM CST

If any other coach did this “night off” thing that Pop does, their players would become upset, but because it’s Pop, and our players are so humble, he can do so.
by Dark Black on Apr 9, 2012 8:24 AM CST

Even if our players aren’t humble, it doesn’t matter. Management will always side with Pop – no other coach has that leeway.
by CapHill on Apr 9, 2012 8:25 AM CST

Agreed.
by Dark Black on Apr 9, 2012 8:25 AM CST

Do the Jazz suck , or are the Spurs really that good?
by alamobro on Apr 9, 2012 8:32 AM CST

Well when your Head Coach is Tyrone Corbin….
by Dark Black on Apr 9, 2012 8:32 AM CST

Spurs really really good
by hurts2bgood on Apr 9, 2012 8:33 AM CST

Settle down, Paul. Or my Milthusiasm will cool to Mindifference.
by Rand on Apr 9, 2012 8:32 AM CST

Manu… argh.
by LatinD on Apr 9, 2012 8:47 AM CST

TWSS
by play_splitter on Apr 9, 2012 8:47 AM CST

okay, why would she say that
by WaveOcean on Apr 9, 2012 8:48 AM CST

She wanted Tiago?
by LatinD on Apr 9, 2012 8:49 AM CST

Spurs win!
by spursfan87 on Apr 9, 2012 9:25 AM CST

Well, that was easy.
by LatinD on Apr 9, 2012 9:26 AM CST

Pop’s likely telling Tim and Manu that the plane leaves a couple of hours later than it actually does so they miss it and he doesn’t have to deal with them wanting to play tomorrow night.
