He's excellent. And a big Jazz fan.
He appreciates the team elements and the overall plan. Shaq is purely star referenced. There is truth to both but shaq not giving much authenticity to his jazz commentary

Observations...
DM real good.
Tatum just can’t keep up with the young athletic wings like Joe Ingles anymore.
JC is a treasure... he sucked real bad most of the game but keeps on putting up the shots and finally got a couple.
pritchard has the most punchable face in the league... has taken up part of the mantle as the tiny guy who I can’t stand... he’s good don’t get me wrong.
Miye was super good on defense... honestly everyone seems to have leveled up there... including DM.

Jim Jackson is normally good.. the closing out games against good teams was cringy though... it’s just untrue.
candice Parker is awesome and communicates well. It really sucks that she gets 30 seconds to talk because Shaq wants to say whatever words pop in his head. She does her damn homework.
I like Adam Lefkoe and D wade... Shaq is garbage... always has been.

Also I continue to have no clue what a flagrant foul is anymore. Royce got one against Phoenix for swiping down real hard and hitting the ball and a little hand. Theis hammers bogey in the air, on the head really hard, on a play he had no chance on and there is definitely excessive force... common foul. It’s so damned inconsistent.
Is Jim Jackson Jimmy Jackson?

I imagine that every night the guys are haunted by that one kid who won’t go to college because Denver beat us... it fuels them.

I hope for Favors's sake that his back is acting up and he's playing through some pain because...oof. He was kinda just standing there while a layup line flew past him.
We've been getting fried on defense whenever he's on the court. Tonight and the Pacers game were really bad in particular.

Both games were bad matchups for Favors as he got hit with a good stretch 5 playing the backup minutes, leaving him less available to protect the paint. Rudy can do both simultaneously, but almost no one else can.
