Thats the question.

Jazz play small ball. It does not make sense for Raptors to put JV in unless they would run offense through paint. But since they like to chuck from the outside then they matchup and play small as well.

Why did Hayward have to go to the locker room early ?

Kudos to Corbin for playing 3 wings, a PG and Millsap and speeding up the game. It takes away the Raptors size advantage, and they don't seem comfortable at that pace. It's impressive that the Jazz would be winning the battle of the boards with Jefferson and Favors out.

[Thee jazz fan]

Why in the hell did Corbin stick his thumb up his ass there with Millsap and Marvin having 2 fouls each. Pure luck that they didn't get another foul!

amazing brainfreeze by corbin.
thanks to millsap lack of d he did not pick up the foul.

Small lineup was working. What if Kanter comes back and picks up two quick ones, you'd be bitching about Ty bringing back Kanter with the small lineup working. We are always complaining that Ty doesn't stick with the hot hand, well there ya go. We are winning stop bitching!

I saw that as Corbin did with Kanter, but this question asked in overall. Not his current presence on the floor.

Valanciunas was biting on Millsap's fakes and getting beat. He's long enough that he should just hold his ground.

Seriously, what other options did he have? Corbin's "great coaching" comes only when he doesn't have any options. He didn't try this line up until Evans got his 3rd foul and Kanter needed a rest.

A real BIG-MAN would crash a small paint like the Utah Jazz are playing, but JV is just to soft.

Iam the only one who has a boner after this passing ? BIG game by the Jazz...

DeMarre Carroll can rebound the ball extremely well for his position. When he hits shots, he is so fun to watch. That unit that finished the quarter was wonderful in every way except for defense in the paint!

Having 2 or 3 fouls in the first half isn't a big deal. Usually players get pulled if they have 2 fouls in the 1st quarter or 3 fouls in the 2nd quarter.

Absolutely not. I am a tad bit dizzy because of lack of oxygen and the permabone! I forgot how much I enjoy watching an offensive team that trusts the pass.

There's truth here. I'd like to see Marvin Williams get the back-up PF minutes ahead of Evans. I'd also like to see a bit of Burks here.

[CAKAR]

Kanter had to avoid contact becausse of the foul trouble of the other bigs, now he can play just more aggressively on both ends of the floor.

Agreed, but when you have two key big men out, you might have to be a bit more conservative. And considering how much Millsap impacted the game, you can not take chances.

I know I've been remiss since moving to NYC, but this post is goddamn brilliant. Please keep them up.
