I know I’m a sensitive homer crazy Jazz fan, but the crowd noise is much less when we score than when they score.

Technically, Denver is the home team.

It's supposed to simulate the homecourt. The same like announcer voice.

 

[AlaskanAssassin]

We are unable to involve Rudy on offense so far.

True. Not a good sign.

 

[Bawse Dawg]

Those two missed bunnies sure hurt. But we're right there.

 

[Hekate]

Lol, Mitchell is weird.

Thanks. I didn’t know that. Makes sense then. We’re only down seven and Denver seems to be hitting a higher percentage of threes than normal.

 

[NAOS]

I ain’t mad right now, considering they hit 3s at a totally unsustainable pace. And we team rebounded well.

But it is clear how physically outmatched we are. And also just how insanely we will be leaning on Mitchell, Clarkson, and Ingles.

 

[Troat Guru]

Lol, Mitchell is weird.

Yeah
Horror layup
Terrific turnover
Really good shot with 0.3 remained

 

[Ellipse]

We really need to steal one of these on the road...


Sorry, I couldn't resist.

 

[Eminence]

Team looked pretty decent in the 1st half, play a bit tighter on those screens. Looks winnable.

 

[Thee Idiotic Minivan K]

The two missed layups at the end of the half by JC and DM really hurt my heart. Thank god Mitch made that last one.

 

[Jazzmix]

Now we're talking!

 

[rjfan]

It seems clear that we need Morgan size (and switchabilityy) to try keep things honets with Nuggets offense, or at least something close to that.

Maybe Brantley can help, but i'm not sure of his defensive maturity, and with Oni for this matchup i think he still some develop away of O'Neal capacity on the perimeter and short of his strength down low, that already not been enough to contest shots.

 

[Ellipse]

I wish Joe would get back on defense instead of complaining to the refs.

 

[Archie Moses]

Mitchell looks slow and unathletic

 

[Bawse Dawg]

Mitchell is the best player on the court.

 

[Zombie]

Really love what Morgan has been doing on the boards.

 

[Ben10]

Morgan has impressed me with his defense this game. I understand the lack of Offense considering.

 

[prodigy]

I am ready for a Donovan takeover.
