PG13 played like a guy who was brought in to keep them contending. I’d say he made some money tonight - but that only applies if he stays in OKC.
Jazz are going to have to overcome the fact that they’re built for defense, with multiple guys who aren’t know for being great shooters and getting big minutes out of two rookies.
Paul George and Russell Westbrook combined for 65 points, 20 rebounds and Russ had 8 assists. That’s hard to overcome when Donovan is the only starter to get over 15 points and double digit rebounds. He needs guys around him to step up. Period.

Foh man. Royce earned his place on the floor with defense this year. Its been apparent all season long.
Something tells me that Burks is more a playoff type of player than Ingles, O'Neale and Rubio. Neto and Udoh should get some minutes too.

If they knock down those threes. . . it could’ve been interesting to finish out. Jazz simply don’t have enough consistent shooting this year. You have to hit wide open 3s.
Magic must be an Australian
You might have autism.
But I hope if he does play, he plays well. I just don't see either happening.

Also. . . Donovan got a double double tonight. His role on the team limits his rebounds and assists opportunities. He played really well for a rookie to go for 27/10/3 in his first playoff game with how much focus OKC gave him.
It may not be this year, but tonight bodes well for Mitchell going forward.

lol ok
Also, the flow of the game is much different in those Burks minutes than it is during the course of the game. Russ was playing like a jackass and trying to stat pad instead of running out clock and the play got loose and sloppy on both ends.

Yup, you avoided the question, so obviously don't have evidence to back up your claim.
It's the playoffs. You make adjustments according to the team you're facing.
Royce O'Neale got honorable mention for All-Defensive teams from Zach Lowe and Kevin Pelton you *** turd.
Go eat a dick cuz you havent been watching jazz games this year.
