Against the Jazz. We are on such a good roll. Hope he comes through tonight but I don’t think he’s played back to back yet

This is absolutely a game I’m perfectly fine with him resting.

I'm sure the plan is for him to sit, but balls up and play Z! frick the plan, unless it's winning.

It’s ridiculous that he doesn’t play on B2Bs.

Unless the plan has changed, Zion doesn't play on back-to-backs when it's the 3rd game in 4 days, so he'll likely sit tonight.

Which is fine. We should still be favored against the Jazz without him.

A travel back to back? With losing an hour?

I doubt it, unless he’s feeling great.

I just feel we need to make sure we get wins here. Losing games to teams we should beat will be the difference come playoff time.

My prediction is Zion and BI will both be held out tonight.

Theory: the Pels sitting him on back to backs could also be a way to show Z his conditioning still sucks and shame him.

It’s like we have the version of James Harden that can’t shoot but can’t be stopped going to the rim.

Zion almost cost us that game last night with his lazy defense and sloppy offense in the 2nd quarter.

I always prefer he plays cause he’s so damn fun to watch, but this team is stupid deep and getting healthy.

+/- isn't an end all. Zion had 9 pts in the 4th, a big steal, created a bucket in transition off a missed layup Dyson put back, and hit all his 4th q fts. Herb and Zion won the game for us in the 4th

And this is with him getting fouled by PJ fricking Tucker everytime he posted up. He had two turnovers that were horrible calls, the reviewed one and the one where PJ got bodied low post and the fricking half court ref called a foul. Just crazy shite. Scott Foster is awful.

Not a chance but we should be able to beat them without Zion. Let BI and Jonas cook and everyone else will pull up the slack.

Have the idiots making these B2B decisions ever considered just limiting his minutes? Why the dramatic OUT?

Jazz blow he doesn’t need to be out there 40+ anyway
