Time: 7:00 pm AZ (7:00 pm PT/10:00 pm ET)
Place: Talking Stick Resort Arena, Phoenix, AZ

The up and coming Utah Jazz come to town for some preseason action. The Jazz swept the Lakers in a two game series in Hawaii. Let's see if we can get off to a better start in this one.

Go Suns!!!

The Jazz seem to be the more popular 8th seed pick over the Suns among most sports media right now. I like some of the Jazz pieces (Gobert, Hayward, Exum, Favors) but overall I don't think their roster is all that talented. I do not think they are a playoff team, and I think the Suns will be the team with the better record at season's end. You can argue that Utah has a brighter future, but I don't think the 2015-16 Jazz are much to write home about.

Cool. We get to see Goodwin start tonight, I'm anxious to see how he's developed or lack thereof. Also interested in watching how Knight runs the team by himself with the starters.

My understanding is he did really well running the team last game against the Kings. I wasn't able to watch the first half but I read we started way down and that it was after Bleds went out and Knight was running the team that we got back into the game.

I hate those new ref uniforms with the black triangle on the back. They look like they all have pony tails!

Markieff three point shot looks much improved. Much more arc on it.

Man, the Jazz are just not missing. Sure, we could play better defense but their shots are pure tonight.

The bench got the Suns back in the game again. Suns took their first lead. This team is deep.

Really excited by Len's apparent progress this off-season. He could make a mess of a few second units this season
