Jazz @ Lakers: NBATV 9:30 Central Time

He's a really underrated defender. I thought Lou would smoke him... he did better than anyone out there.

Jingle's D reminds me a bit of latter-day Hornacek, when he was playing on one leg. Savvy, good positioning, high IQ, deceptively quick hands. Making up for low athleticism with brains.

not a bad comp. A little latter-day Paul Pierce-ish, too.
 
Credit screen assist for Joe Johnson for Jingles winning 3.

Jingles set off-ball screen on Randle, freeing rudy to set high screens for Mack (slips) and then weak side screen for Hayward. Randle switched onto Jingles on the low block screen and Young switches off of Jingles to chase Rudy's high screens.

Then Randle sees the off ball screen action for Hayward, and stays in the lane in anticipation of Hayward cut to the rim.

Meanwhile, on strong side, Deng is covering Joe Johnson. Johnson sets an aggressive screen on Deng, preventing him from switching onto Jingles, who knocks down the open corner three, with Randle in the lane.

Great hoops IQ by Joe J. Really well designed and executed play by the Jazz. The misdirection and solid screening had the Lakers scrambling.
 
We have taken six charges this year as a team... Kyle korver has taken 8... Tyler seller has taken 6... I wouldn't have Gobert doing it but Mack, Exum, Hood and Hayward should be getting a few... hill is actually pretty good at it but he died a few weeks ago... RIP

thats ebcause we play real defense we dont use a cheap trick like a charge to negate a layup!
 
Gonna guess Gobert has pretty significant splits on his home vs away free throws. I've only seen a few games, but he has looked far more confident at home than on the road. The crowds can get him pretty rattled at that line, which is understandable.

He's going to need to work on that for the playoffs. He's had a couple of mediocre games in a row now, hopefully he can show the rook Embiid what's up.
