Game Thread Mar 01, 2021 6:00PM MT: Jazz at Pelicans

[Handlogten's Heros]

What's most irritating is that when this team was feeling itself with how well it was shooting the 3 in the 2nd quarter (on unsustainable %'s), they weren't playing any transition defense whatsoever which kept the Pelicans in thie game.

They did this to themselves, just like in the Denver series when they let upwhile up 15 in the 3rd quarter of Game 5.

They aren't killers.

I mean we have the biggest point differential in the league. Tough to say we aren't killers.

 

[Hekate]

Nice one Niang, let's go!

 

[LogGrad98]

Maybe we need to get pounded to wake up out of our sloppy funk. Can't play sloppy like this and expect to keep funding a way to turn it on and win.

 

[Goodluckchuck]

Our defense missing again tonight. We don’t look as good lately as we did a month ago.

 

[LogGrad98]

I thought we had good internal defense. Gobert is all but invisible.

 

[SteakNEggs]

Rudy isn’t playing with a ton of effort tonight on defense. Isn’t making the normal plays he would.

He's guarding his man, plus Williamson

 

[kabenac]

Worst third quarter of the season.

 

[BabyPeterzz]

we ready for all star break.

 

[Hekate]

It's probably all-star break blues. We have been looking forward to that for some time.

 

[zyzz]

I'm pretty sure Conley has airballed two floaters by miles, but they ended up being accidental lobs

 

[SoUjazzfan]

This is one of those Mitchell will lose the game singlehandedly games.

No, this one is on the defense (or lack thereof).

 

[str8line]

They have 9 TO, we have 8
