Playoff Game 6: Jazz vs Clippers 4/28/17 8:30 PM, ROOT, ESPN

I won't count them out... I may have to get on SeatGeek drive down and take care of this **** myself. I will bring all the churros and out spaz ballmer.
 
Once they got the ball, they should have gone for the timeout. Run a set play and give yourself as much time to climb back into it. Worst case, you get a quick 2 and a foul and then hope that they miss one and you can win with a 2 or free throws.
Wrong. A quick two is not the worst case scenario.

Im so tired of this sports board trope of questioning decisions made on the last possession of a tight game especially when the result is a good shot. He missed a good shot. If he had made this good shot you would have nothing to criticize. You're embarrassing yourself.

And he sucked tonight. When he plays well, play him. When he doesn't, sit him. Its not rocket science.

I'm talking about playing Exum 5 minutes. 5 minutes. Why? Our future might depend on it/him. Rivers "sucked" at NO. He is valuable now. He actually plays at LA. He didn't get better over night. He got to play.

5 minutes. Use your brain instead of being a trolling smartass.

So you sit a player who can hit shots for someone who can't hit shots and will probably get exposed by the other team completely ignoring him? Great idea.

I don't blame the refs, but they played a part. Certainly the Jazz lost it by missing shots and what not, but the team is at an inherit disadvantage when their center is allowed to push on every screen and their PG can draw shooting fouls 40 feet from the rim because nba Reffing has gone full retard.

George hill drew the same foul called... so that point is moot, you can't blame the refs for their players making smarter moves.

As far as the moving screens, that's not new. Most teams have bigs who set moving screens. KG made a career of illegal screens.

If DJ is getting away with illegal stuff why don't we follow his lead?

Exum actually played well in stretches in this series. He did well against Crawford who torched us some tonight.

When we play as flat as we did tonight, we had nothing to lose. 5 minutes.

We've learned a lot about our players.
We have a lot of good players but we need an upgrade somewhere if we want to continue to advance next year.

Part of it does have to do with health, but get past that and we need to address the weak spots.
I don't think we need an upgrade, but some players have to make the next step. Upgrading the emergency 11-15 may be in order, but dudes like Hood/Favors/Exum just have to decide they want to take the next step or not. Luckily all 3 of those dudes will be in a contract year next year so they will have plenty of motivation.

This... both of the calls he got on those there was no extended arm or contact. It is embarrassing to the NBA... I saw a guy try to do that in rec league and the refs laughed at his ***... I mean even those jokers nknownthat ain't basketball.
 
Over some of the minutes Hood, Jingles and Neto are getting be might be. There is no valid argument why he cant get 5 minutes at home when people are playing that poorly.

I'd ride Hood and Ingles no matter what over Exum. The Exum vs Neto debate is a gamble one way or the other as both of them are unreliable and have been all year.
