GAME 1: Little Ricky's journey to the playoffs -- Jazz @ Thunder 4/15/18 4:30 pm MST

Also many said that mitchell is a clutch player and he wins match for the jazz in the 4th quarter. Well, he disappeared and was non existent in the 4th quarter of this match.
Surely you're not dumb enough to use this game's 4th quarter to come up with this "Mitchell is not clutch" argument right? Mitchell only played around 4 minutes in the 4th quarter (looks like the coaching staff had him on a minutes restriction) and he still scored 4 points. By contrast, Westbrook played almost double the the 4th quarter minutes DM played and only scored 6 pts. So does that mean Westbrook isn't clutch either?
 
People really need to watch Favors in this series. If he can't exploit Carmelo at either end of the court, why are some so intent on keeping him long term. This is a series where he should be an asset not a non-factor.

Overall, I'm not too concerned with OKC. I'm concerned by the refs and what I've seen over the years of stars being given an easier path to advance. But we can do this. Have to execute better.

Reffing seemed a bit one-sided to me in terms of letting physicality go on each end. But, the Jazz still allowed OKC to control the tempo after that opening burst in the 1st quarter and I think that is ultimately what led to the Game 1 loss. That, and the fact that OKC just seemingly couldn't miss.
 
I'll cut the Jazz some slack this first game, guys like Rubio and Ingles just weren't hitting the shots they normally would. I say nerves could have been a factor.
I agree that Favors needs to pound the glass more, we weren't very good with rebounding either. I'm confident that the Jazz will make the necessary adjustments for game 2.
Overall they put up a good fight.
 
guess we know what his parents do for a hobby.

I seem to remember reading somewhere that Adam's Dad and his 18 siblings were spread out among 4 or 5 different mothers.

The Antonio Cromartie of Australia apparently.

Also, the average height of his male siblings is 6'9"
 
Game 1 lost, overreaction guaranteed: Ingles, Rubio, Favors, O'Neale, Crowder, and Jerebko suck! Trade them asap!
Here comes garbage time. Burks enters the game with no pressure at all (that's why it's called garbage time) and makes a couple of 3s. Play him 30 minutes next game!

Based on overreaction after loses, our roster would include Donovan Mitchell and 14 different players. Not even Gobert would have survived the season as a Jazz player.

On a serious note, we started 16-4. PG13 got the ball, shot a contested 3 twisting his body while calling for a foul. It went in. You gotta be kidding me. 2 minutes later, 16-16.
Typical stay in my comfort zone Jazz fan. All some fans are saying is that AB should get some minutes. But, you have to stay the course on your AB hate. Because Quin never makes mistakes with his development.

He's from new zealand, think canada but with more sheep
 
What if scenerio....ready what if playing AB 15 minutes a game could guarantee us to win this series? Would you leave your biases behind and admit that you might be wrong about the AB hate or is this part of your DNA now?

If anything this series will make it readily obvious that The Jazz just need a bit more fire power on offense.

Utah may still win - they've been counted out before and proved a lot of people wrong. And if OKC's season is any indication of how the playoffs will go, they'll probably lay a big egg on Wednesday night.

But this theory about an elite defense being just as valuable as having an elite offense was exposed big time last night. In the NBA, the best defense for countering a superstar who's shooting lights out is a good offense.

Don't you still owe us a ban for Hairdon Greybush making the allstar team last year?
 
Using Ron Mexico's logic, most of them were uncontested rebounds and his double double was just hollow stat because the jazz lost the match.

Oh shut up....Donovan was nothing short of amazing yesterday.
 
Xray negative. He will play game 2
YES!
