Last night in Salt Lake City, the Utah Jazz took the defending champions Golden State Warriors to the woodshed for a 40-point 119-79 soul-crushing victory at home. The Warriors have been playing their past few games with the same level of interest Shawn Kemp paid to family planning lectures back in the day, and the Jazz were more than happy to capitalize on the Warriors’ lethargic performance.
The game was mostly forgettable for the Warriors. As for the Jazz, perhaps the most memorable moment happened in the first quarter when Rookie of the Year candidate Donovan Mitchell nearly sawed Warriors forward Draymond Green in half with a sick crossover that caused the reigning Defensive Player of the Year tumbling to the floor.

The highlight did not end there. When Mitchell’s play was uploaded online by House of Highlights on Instagram, point guards and Draymond Green Western Conference nemeses Russell Westbrook and Chris Paul proved that pettiness knows no boundary by liking the post. You guys.
Westbrook and Paul better hope Draymond Green didn’t see them liking that embarrassing defensive play of his because the last thing they would like to experience is getting kicked in the family jewels the next time they meet Green.
