The untold story of Ron Boone: returning to where it all started -- Jazz in New Orleans 3/11/18 2PM

Terrific win. But...

So many mental errors for the Jazz. Just serious WTF moments out there.

Rudy, why you taking a terrible 18 foot jumper?
Rudy, why you trying to feed Favors on the break?
Spidah, why you taking a low % 3 early in the shot clock when we need to burn clock late in the 4th?
Udoh, why you decide to throw up a low % shot after you get the offensive board? just clear that **** so we can run a play.
Rudy/Favors one of you is guarding Davis, figure it out.
Rudy, When you can control the offensive board do that instead of trying to throw it off the opponent's leg.

I think I see a pattern. You need to get your head in the game Gobert, you are making a lot of low BBIQ plays at least tonight.
 
Gotta say, if Mitchell wins ROTY, it is deserved based on games like this.
He was nowhere for awhile tonight, and remained composed.
There is in an air of inevitablity that he will (or has the ability) to take over down the stretch or in important moments. Pretty amazing trait...

Dude it was impressive, I'd had 5 hours sleep woke up sore and tired, after watching that i was jumping around the living room, and getting ready to hit the gym. The kid is a freak, loved it at the end of the third when he went to the bench and you could see the whole team was pumped.
 
What an absolute statement win. The bounce back from that horrid 2nd quarter was just flat out impressive, and a joy to watch. As well as Mitchell lighting it up after a pretty disastrous 1st half.
 
Also, I swear the refs bone the Jazz the first half of every game then they totally [edit] in the 2nd half and actually give us calls in our favor. I'm sure a lot of that is just the Jazz's style wearing on opponents and fouls becoming more obvious, but it's nice.

I disagree with you , if it wasn't for Rubio we would have lost this game. Your comment is more accurate to what Hood use to do to us.
You can't disagree that when the Jazz made their comeback and retook the lead is when Rubio went to the bench. Also, I don't know about you guys, but I hate it when Rubio over dribbles. It always seems to get him in trouble. And why does he keep shooting after he misses a couple? Sure, if he's hot then take them but after you miss a couple don't keep dribbling and looking for another shot. That's exactly what the defense wants and it takes the rest of our team out of the offense.

Now that he has a coach who encourages him to shoot more, I think Ricky looks in the mirror and sees a Spanish Westbrook. I'm still not a big fan of Rubio. I'd like to see Utah get a big 3&D combo guard to complement Mitchell. But hey, look at Ingles' late career improvement. Maybe Rubio can become a competent, consistent shooter.

This is the wrong game to carry on the Rubio hate. Rubio and DM scored 57 points, with Rubio the larger contributor; personally, I think they form a hell of a back-court duo.
 
Quin Snyder is going to make Rubio millions of dollars on his next contract.

Also, wouldn’t be surprised to see the team trade Rubio in part of a blockbuster deal next year to add a 3rd star player to team up with Gobert, Mitchell and Jingles.

His trade value is going to be sky high this offseason IMO, and I think Donovan is the team’s PG of the future. He’s just so damn good with the ball in his hands.

Quin wants him to keep shooting, oh and by the way he's been shooting it pretty well for a while now.
