Jazz 120 - Suns 117 (OT)
My 93rd Straight Jazz Home Game (Preseason Included)
wow.. what a game this one turned out to be.. the arena was so loud at times and the fans were just electric.. it turned out to be a great night to pick Paul Millsap for my nba.com fantasy pick one player of the game.. he earned me 56 big points, way to go paul...
the jazz unveilled their new alternate road jerseys tonight. the suns wore their home white jerseys.. i like the new roadies.. i wish my new "slakis" jersey i'm getting for being a season ticket holder was in the new road colors, but i doubt it will be...
millsap played fantastic, except for fouling out (which i blame on the sucky refs anyways).. the jazz played well most of the first half.. our momentum was sucked out of us by the crappy refs in the 3rd when we kept getting foul after foul called on us.. the crowd was going crazy booing the refs, i couldn't believe what they were doing to us...
halftime was a weird lady who shot a bow and arrow with her feet at a target while holding herself up with her hands.. weird..
i totally thought in the 4th quarter when we went down by 15 that this was it. that it was going to be our first home loss since April 4th when we lost to San Antonio.. the Jazz kicked into gear and everyone chipped in to pull out the victory.. clutch free throws by boozer, memo and williams were the key for us, and i'm so happy we didn't miss any of them..
it was fun seeing raja again but it was funner seeing him foul out.. he's a good guy, but it just seemed like he was out to try to get us tonight.. he threw someone on the ground and was called for an offensive foul, but i think that was in the first half.. i'm just happy he fouled out and wasn't there at the end of OT when they were down by 3..
anyways.. enjoy the pics.. 9-1 now.. see you monday for Toronto's game...
