What's new

Jazz vs Clippers - October 30, 21:30 CET/14:30MDT

You remember those Clipper rebounds with both Gobert and Favors going for the ball?

Yes. I was shocked on that play when favors and Gobert both had good rebounding position and the ball came off the rim right where they were and Griffin got the rebound.
 
Diaw is as old as Jesus. Preseason means little. I'm not surprised he's sucking. I'm sure he'll have a few good games, and many sucky ones. I'm surprised with Lyles tho. I expect him to turn it around soon.
This. All this.
Diaw pre season was fools gold. Lyles has looked really good many times on this jazz team.

I expect diaw to suck and expect Lyles to be much better than he has been. Hopefully when favors is fully ready to go diaw will ride pine all game. Favors, Rudy, and Lyles should be able to play all the 4/5 minutes.
 
What happened to all the optimism for the new guys?

Stoked get in here and get these people in line.
 
One positive is Exum continues to show flashes. He was second leading scorer and 7th in attempts tonight.

I think this team will have a breakout game at some point. Things are not clicking yet, and probably won't without Hayward, but I do think they will.

Hell YES. That's what I'm talking about. I hope we all remember those of so little faith from this thread.

Exum plays way beyond his experience level. He's gonna be damn good eventually.
 
Just one game

Besides, we were without Hayward and Alec. Once those 2 come back we will be awesome.
 
Just curious, can anyone on our team actually post up?

It seems like 100 percent of our shots come from the perimeter.

Karl Malone must be rollin in his grave right now. I remember a time when the Jazz could get into the paint and manufacture easy shots. Now it's all about 4 guards running around a pick sent by either Gobert or Favors and then chucking some outside shot. Dunno why we are trying to play like the Warriors...

Favors has posted quite a bit but he's got that minutes restriction. Also, you apparently missed the Portland game where JJ posted for basically the entire second half. The Clippers had Jordan patrolling the paint and he kinda deterred any Jazz wings from posting up deep in the paint.

Also, Karl Malone is one of the greatest scorers in the history of the NBA and is in the HOF.

And against the Lakers I think we went 2 quarters without making a shot outside the paint.

this. i fully expected us to look scratchy and even like garbage early on even before the injuries. We're gonna be all over the place for a little while, still way too early to stress out
