Welcome to the gaming thread. Veterans of the game thread know how we operate here, but for anyone new, we have a few rules. Our Community Guidelines Apply and basically say: Be cool, no personal attacks, don’t troll, and don’t curse too much.

We saw last night what happens when a young team that’s just figuring out how to play basketball together meets one of the best teams in the league, and it wasn’t pretty. Tonight the Spurs face the Jazz, a team that ranks near the bottom in most NBA statistical categories, so they should have a better chance of keeping up tonight.

After Wednesday’s trick, tonight could be a treat, but with the Spurs playing on the road against a rested Jazz, who last played at home against the Sacramento Kings on Tuesday night, they lose 113-96. If the Spurs aren’t willing to play hard tonight, it could be trick or trick tonight, which would be hard to stomach for fans expecting this team to get off to a quick start. It will be interesting to see if Pop decides not to play (Chris Paul | Victor Wembanyama) because they are too (old|young) to play games on two consecutive nights. It’s going to be a scary night in Salt Lake City, but if the Spurs have enough candy, they’ll keep the Jazz at bay.

Match prediction:

Victor Wembanyama will go trick-or-treating before the game, but many houses refuse to give him candy because he is too big for trick-or-treating.

A final word:

Go Spurs GOOOOOO!!
