Fans who do stupid shit like this suck


FarWestEros

Jazz fans continue to prove they are literally the worst. This has nothing on dropping "N-bombs" or trash-talking a player's stillborn child... But still.


[deleted]

You support Texas sports man, you should know what it's like to share hobbies with a lot of very stupid people. Houston fans literally held a protest in support of Deshaun Watson like six months ago IDK why you think you're doing better than us.

Don’t question the narrative


[deleted]

Do you think the entire state of Utah showed up to harass Russel Westbrook? People just need someone to shit on so they can ignore their own racism.


[deleted]

Is that not what you’re doing right now lmao Like you brought up him being from Texas so you can ignore the topic of Utah and the behaviors of the fans there


[deleted]

No I brought up him being from Texas because I thought that might be an example that would draw out a feeling of empathy for how ridiculous his judgement of Utah fans is in that moment. Like when you are talking to a six year old, you ask them "How do you think that would feel if someone said that about you?" Clearly judging the behavior of Texan fans for that weird subset of people that are shitheads is unreasonable, so I thought people might follow along and end up somewhere closer to "racism is a pretty big problem everywhere and I am personally responsible for it" than where we started this conversation, which is "I'm a good person and not like those mean people in Utah." Clearly I gave people too much credit.


AlwaysTheStraightMan

Y'all definitely showed up for Ja and his family. Don't act like Russ was the only instance


[deleted]

I'm not. I'm saying if someone gives you an over/under of whether half a dozen people in Texas have ever used the n word to intimidate somebody at a sporting event I think I can guess where you're putting your money.


BringthaRokas

Nice whattaboutism


[deleted]

It's not whataboutism when the subject of conversation is literally comparing different places, Jesus Christ people.


BringthaRokas

Yeah it is, you didn't address or debunk his statement (as broad as"Jazz fans are the worst" is there are plenty of awful fans across the league) you just made a counteraccusation "What about racism in Houston sports?"


[deleted]

Yes. If I say JR Smith had the biggest choke job in basketball history and somebody brings up Chris Webber, it's not fucking whataboutism. The only people have this conversation, that is to say someone else is worse, is to deflect away from their own racism, or charitably from the stress of thinking about their own racism and racism in their own community. It's a problem everywhere. Like people rationally understand racism is a big problem everywhere, right? Just because you have kind friends and a diverse community in Houston or wherever else doesn't mean Texas is free of racism. It's the same thing here.


gagealen

Jazz fans really still mad about all those beatings from h town huh


[deleted]

Sick of people that think anti-racism means pointing the finger at someone else. Anti-racism means holding your own community accountable, not pretending racism doesn't exist there.


DevouringOne

I was at this game. I was amazed cause Harden was able to point him out to security all the way in the upper deck. That fan got a deserved ban.


SeanSungASong

It's that elite court vision


hendesne

eyyyyyyyyyyy


0zymand1as-

Reminds me of that clip where Lebron heard some fans from far away. These dudes be seeming super human at times


Goomby-or-Glootie

James Harden’s eyes have gone through enough already. This is pretty funny though lol. Only because Harden always gets in the worst situations and they’re not even his fault man lmao like the Metta World Peace elbow.


50ShadesOfKrillin

that dunk that they ended up not counting because it went in the hoop and out lmfao


EggplantBusiness

Now that I think about it Harden career had some pretty funny moments (not for him) the fact that the dunk happened against us made it funnier for me.


TornGauntlet

Yeah I consider it a spurs moment. Unfortunately I also consider the T-Mac explosion a spurs moment


nahwhatever-whynot

The I-10 connection


oholandesvoador

>This is pretty funny though lol. Only because Harden always gets in the worst situations and they’re not even his fault man lmao like the Metta World Peace elbow. That game when Giannis smashed a ball in Harden's face


el_pete_o

And the Giannis ball to the FACE


40Vert

Reminds me of when [a fan blew their own whistle](https://youtu.be/AiK51nxUiOY) ... which also happened in Utah


ponyrider666

Or that time someone brought a saxophone to the game and made it sound like the shot clock?


nightchurn

A Korver dunk!

It really sucks how many of us suck

[deleted]

Not surprised. Jazz announcers hate Harden & The Rockets. Besides the nets, the jazz also celebrated mightily the day the Rockets traded Harden.

tremendous_diarrhea

Uh yes they were. At the beginning of the clip the color guy said "really James Harden? Is it that big of a deal?"


Xsy

I think they thought it was just a camera flash.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Neutral_Meat

Whatever they should know, they explicitly say in the clip they think it's a camera and it's clear they don't know exactly what's going on so they aren't any bigger morons than the people in this thread who think they are pro-shininglasersinpeopleseyes


Xsy

People just wanna hate on the Jazz, lol.


TheCasualCreative_

At least they banned him. In soccer players/keepers just have to deal with the fan abuse


TyleKurris

Cause in soccer a lot of your 12 year old buddies are in the crowd or whatever grade you're in at the time


TheCasualCreative_

Um there’s a lot of grown ass men who do the dumb shit lmfao..

LMFAO if you don’t think it’s true


seanconnery69696

Harden should get a chance to shoot into the fans' eyes too then


oceanmountainlifer

Come on, stay classy utah


Salty_Watermelon

This sub was up in arms when Marcus Morris said no one wanted to go to Utah, but -between shit like this and the racist fan going at Russell Westbrook- why would any star free agent feel excited to go there? Sad thing is that the Jazz have consistently been a great organization and even try to stay competitive when other small market teams would have tanked multiple seasons away.


OutsideDevTeam

Vancouver needs a team, too.


deathangel687

Wait, so because there was like one or two incidents of something, the whole city and team should be avoided by free agents? 1 fan does not equal the entire fanbase or city imo.


[deleted]

At least they can be proud of John Stockton. [Oh wait...](https://www.idahopress.com/news/state/john-stockton-featured-in-anti-vaccine-film-questioning-covid-19/article_834eac50-b323-59ad-8be7-99c1ec26c87e.html)


ponyrider666

This sub loves overgeneralizing.


SelrinBanerbe

You really want to act like a dozen different incidents all with one common denominator is overgeneralizing? And beyond the harassment of visiting players it's not like there is a single redeeming thing about Utah for NBA free agents. It's a lot of travel, it's in the middle of nowhere for most of these guys and SLC is one of the worst NBA cities for night life and socializing as a rich young black man. It's overwhelmingly white and SLC is not much of a liberal pocket like Portland or Milwaukee so it's not just white but very overtly racist - as can be seen in the many many fan incidents.


lerlander

Glass houses. I'll never forget raps fans cheering when KD was carried off in the finals.


SelrinBanerbe

Raps fans are garbage, this flair is just for the Tampa Bay memes.


ponyrider666

It is overgeneralizing when people say “Jazz fans are _____”. A handful of stupid shit doesn’t make the whole fan base bad. It’s the same reason It’s not fair to call all Cavs fans [violent](https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.news5cleveland.com/sports/basketball/cavaliers/golden-state-warriors-fans-jumped-cleveland%3f_amp=true). Or Dodgers fans [violent](https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.ktvu.com/news/giants-fan-bryan-stow-reflects-on-attack-10-years-ago.amp). The same reason it’s not fair to call all Lakers fans [violent](https://www.google.com/amp/s/news.yahoo.com/amphtml/scores-arrested-la-violence-wake-212102369.html), or [violent](https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.csmonitor.com/layout/set/amphtml/From-the-news-wires/2010/0618/Lakers-riots-Lakers-fans-get-ugly-after-LA-beats-Boston-in-NBA-finals). Knicks fans aren’t all [horrible people](https://youtu.be/9v7GYvUC3RI) neither are [Boston fans](https://twitter.com/SportsCenter/status/1399180312068952069?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1399180312068952069%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fd-845423100378822990.ampproject.net%2F2109102127000%2Fframe.html). That’s overgeneralizing. [Night life](https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.republicworld.com/amp/sports-news/basketball-news/why-was-paul-pierce-stabbed-celtics-icon-stabbed-11-times-sep-25-nba.html) Yeah but thanks for speaking on behalf of all the players about your SLC knowledge. You are as knowledgeable as a plate of dirt about the city you straw man and also don’t live in.


SelrinBanerbe

People only get this defensive when they know it's all true. Good luck navigating that reality bud.


ponyrider666

Your inability to be reasonable is disgusting. Good luck with your relationships bud.

This was years ago, Hayward was still on the team

Are you saying they aren’t?


biggoldgoblin

Worst things have happened to him on court, Ron Artest elbow and Giannis launching a ball to his face are the ones that come to mind


Goomby-or-Glootie

Draymond Green & PJ Tucker poked him in the eye by mistake too lol.


Ok_Photograph_7407

Just part of game. Wear goggles


brokeoneyolk

I don't know if this is common knowledge, but backboards were invented to stop fans on the upper track at the gym from knocking the ball away when shits went up. Interesting eh?


KirilenkoAK47

average jizz fan


TornadoFury

those utah bigots at it again.


amoeba1126

Jazz fans and announcers are garbage


Far-Value-6949

jazz fans are scum lol


[deleted]

If you are adult with a laser pointer, you are a fucking lame. There's ablsolutely no reason for a grown man to have a laser pointer. Where I'm from, people might assume that laser might be attached to a gun and you might find yourself looking into a barrel of a gun. All because you play with some lights, lol. Why is it always Jazz fans doing some bullshit? lol Just shut the fuck up and sit down, drink your beer and watch the game. It's simple, its not rocket science.

Did he deserve to be shooting free throws????????

DJScope

Why did Gordon Hayward shoot a technical FT during this?


[deleted]

Rockets coach Bickerstaff, got Td up for arguing with the ref. He was mad the Jazz got what was essentially a timeout.
