Jazz VS Rockets 9pm ET / 7pm MT

I have always been a big Burks fan, but a certain left hander is going to give him a run for his money as the starting shooting guard. Wonder which one will be the 6th man off the bench?

Great to think how the Jazz will be rising fast up the Western Conference rankings next year.

Gobert and Favors kept Harden from getting to the rim for the most part. I think that says enough about our defense right there.

I called that in the other thread about Gobert. Everyone is afraid of the paint with him around, and when he is out they are lulled into a false sense of security until they run into Favors. BOOM!
 
We could be watching not just the emergence of one of the best center to play the game but quite probably the best defensive duo in the paint since the Twin Towers off Olajuwon and Sampson.

In terms of style of play, I like Hood better in the starting lineup to spread the floor.

And Burks is more capable than Hood of being the go to guy for the second unit.

With the emergence of Hood and Favors and Rudy, and Hayward having what could be termed a breakout year as well, our biggest problem in the future will be convincing Greg to mortgage the Miller's entire holdings to keep this team together for 6 or 8 championships in a row.
 
Here is another thing about Rudy. He obviously rolled his ankle cleaning up on that one play. You can clearly see it in the replays. But he immediately came back in and continued to dominate. I bet it was hurting a bit afterward and tender after the game, but no complaints from him. Is he Iron Man?

Put Boozer in exactly the same situation and he misses 22 games while crying about it in every interview, then demanding more money.

I have a new found respect for French toughness.

So THAT'S the guy Harpring was referring to during the broadcast.... I see.
