What’s the buzz on Twitter?

Duane Rankin @DuaneRankin
“Competitive response to a tough loss.”
Frank Vogel after Suns win at defending #NBA champion Nuggets after loss to Spurs.
“The guys were super locked in.”
On Kevin Durant’s “aggressive” 30-point effort: “It just gives our whole group a little more confidence.” #Suns #Nuggets pic.twitter.com/POUCiYsLPU2:01 AM

Andy Larsen @andyblarsen
The Triple Team is in your inboxes! On:
1. The good news: the vibe of the locker room has changed significantly in the last 6 weeks! The bad news…
2. Lauri Markkanen played the whole 2nd half.
3. The Jazz have officially been eliminated from playoff contention – 1:58 AM
Sarah Todd @NBASarah
Watching all Victor involved Jazz shot attempts. This one stands out. Jazz on the break, plenty time on the clock. Obviously want shots with him not in the play. Lauri slows when Victor is on his back but when he realizes Victor isn’t in the play he rushes the shot. pic.twitter.com/VmOOQUudjf1:44 AM

Kevin Durant delivers: Takeaways from Phoenix Suns’ response win over Denver Nuggets after bad loss to San Antonio Spurs #Suns #Nuggets azcentral.com/story/sports/n… via @azcentral – 1:28 AM
Tom Orsborn @tom_orsborn
Vassell has been outstanding the last two games, with 26 vs. Phoenix and 31 tonight for his sixth 30-plus game of the season. It was also the four time in his last six outings he’s had 25-plus.
“It’s wonderful to see him develop like this…We all trust in him,” Wembanyama said. – 1:08 AM
Tom Orsborn @tom_orsborn
The official play-by-play gives Sochan credit for the block at the rim on Hendricks with 7.2 seconds left, but Wemby indicated he got it:
“Regardless of the challenge of sometimes wanting to dunk on your opponent, it was a bad choice, I think…You got to be smart.” – 12:18 AM
Gerald Bourguet @GeraldBourguet
The Suns following up their worst loss of the season to the Wemby-less Spurs with a performance like this against the defending NBA champs is objectively hilarious. Good luck figuring this team out – 12:18 AM
Tom Orsborn @tom_orsborn
Spurs finished with a season-best 40 assists on 44 makes. – 12:10 AM
Casey Holdahl @CHold
Spurs defeat the Jazz to get to 17 wins, just two fewer than the Blazers with nine games to play… – 11:56 PM
Paul Garcia @PaulGarciaNBA
The Spurs finished with 9 steals tonight.
Jeremy Sochan collected 5 of those 9 steals vs Utah. – 11:55 PM
Tom Orsborn @tom_orsborn
Devin on Wemby’s defense, including the big block late on Hendricks: “It’s just crazy the stuff we ask of him and expect of him, but he’s put himself at that level. We expect it from him night in and night out…He went to go dunk on him and we know that’s not going to happen.” – 11:54 PM
Paul Garcia @PaulGarciaNBA
The Spurs had their best shooting night from outside since March 9 @ GSW.
Tonight the Spurs scored 48 points from the 3PT line and they shot 48% from distance. – 11:52 PM
Paul Garcia @PaulGarciaNBA
The Spurs tallied a new season high 40 assists on 44 makes tonight.
Both season high in assists and assist percentage (91%). – 11:50 PM
Paul Garcia @PaulGarciaNBA

12-54 as underdogs
9-8 when leading by 15 points in a game

5. Kessler putback layup
222 total blocks in 64 games:

4% on 3PT shots – 11:44 PM
Tom Orsborn @tom_orsborn
Pop liked Devin’s work on both ends:
“He had to guard Sexton a lot, so I was afraid he might get too tired to shoot the damn thing. But he pushed through and was a monster at both ends.” – 11:43 PM
Tom Orsborn @tom_orsborn
Pop liked that the Spurs played “good, physical defense again” and that Malaki came in and got “three or four buckets when we need to score…He deserves a lot of credit for keeping us going offensively.” – 11:42 PM
Paul Garcia @PaulGarciaNBA
Devin Vassell’s 31 points tonight:
Dunk/layup range 4 points
Floater range 8 points

5 Spurs players have 17 or more points in this game.

The Jazz entered last on defense in the league – 11:04 PM
Ben Anderson @BensHoops
Lauri Markkanen’s aggressiveness over the last two games is reminiscent of how he looked last year.
Forceful cuts to the rim resulting in a ton of dunks, and we just haven’t seen that as much this year. – 11:04 PM
Paul Garcia @PaulGarciaNBA
17 points for Champagnie after he nails his 3rd three of the game.
The Spurs are +12 from the 3PT line – 11:02 PM

Sam Vecenie @Sam_Vecenie
Rockets have a real shot at this thing with this Jalen Green leap. Obviously got a touch lucky tonight with OKC sitting Shai, but that was one of the games they had to bank. Still three Jazz/Blazers games that would get them to 40 wins now if they sweep those. – 10:55 PM

Amen perfectly executed the foul up 3 strategy against the Spurs a couple weeks ago, but not sure what he was doing on that JDub tying 3 – 10:32 PM
Tom Orsborn @tom_orsborn
Vassell with 15 points on 6 of 12 (3 of 6 from 3-pt range) at the break.
He’s played well against the Jazz all season, scoring 22 points on 8 of 18 (5 of 10) on Dec. 26 and 27 points on on 10 of 19 (4 of 8) on Feb. 25. – 10:18 PM

You can tell when Taylor Hendricks shot is going to fall, and when it’s going to miss, based almost entirely on how much air he gets under it.
He tends to get a little frozen ropey at times, but when he puts it UP it seems to go in at a high rate. – 9:54 PM
