I’m more concerned with Morris, Rondo, Mann, and Beverley than Push Off P. He’ll get his. The question is if we make those other guys look like all stars.

I think ultimately the deciding factor will be if Quin has figured anything out offensively and if the role players are going to show up. We need Rudy, Bogey, and Jingles to show up tonight.

Morris: 24
Jackson: 20
Mann: 13
Batum: 9

Their supporting cast more than made up for Kawhi’s loss. You aren’t going to win games against them if you let Morris dump 20+ on ya.

Nah man... Reggie straight ISO’d him and got a layup. Had too many 50/50 balls he didn’t get. He was fine... we needed him to put a full on stamp on the game and he was fine...

If I'm thinking of the same layup, that thing was lucky as hell. IT was a tough tough shot from a player playing out of his mind.

Okay. Your opinion. But they attacked him on the perimeter. It’s what they have done the last 3 games. No adjustments made by Quin. And Gobert was left on an island to guard much quicker players and it hurt us IMO

Yeah, they are attacking him and he's doing a great job for the amount of responsibility he has. He can't stop every paly just like Donovan can't hit every pull up 3 he takes.
 
I hate being a Jazz fan. Getting let down this bad all the time stings hard. Can't even capitalize on Kawhi's absence. My prediction for game 6? We get blown out in the 1st quarter and never get closer than 15 in the remaining 3 quarters. And once again the only thing we'll hear is how the Jazz were overrated all year. We've got no heart, and no pride. They have played scared the whole series. I'll see you all next year for the underperforming team of the year.

Rudy has zero blocks for the game he showed no intensity in going out and being aggressive and blocking the **** out of them

Yeah, Jazz really need to get another guy who can play D and also be on the floor during crunch time. Royce is overburdened like a ************. It's insane to expect him to be able to hit shots down the stretch with the amount of energy he has to spend every ****ing game of the season.

Yes but that’s kinda the point... too many teams can scheme and change Rudy’s impact. If he’s the greatest defender in the game like we claim then our defense shouldn’t be ordinary in the playoffs.
 
Just going to log off of JFC for now.

Y'all are being ridiculous. Appreciate how this team fought.

Mitchell is out here gritting it out like a ************. Props to him. He's trying his hardest.

Gobert is doing everything he can to defend the entire court. His energy in the 2nd half kept the game close when it would have been a blowout otherwise.

Props to O'Neale for playing his *** off on D when he knows there is no one on Utah who can help him on the perimeter.

**** injuries, that is all.
 
This just shows Tye Lue has broken us and not the superstars they have. Needed to treat this game as game 7 and roll conley for at least 15-20mins. Clarkson/Mitchell on court at the same time has been terrible. This could have been Conleys rusty first game and make them think a little. Now good chance we might get a rusty Conley if he does play. Must do something different next game, even if its getting Rudy the ball early on the roll, i'd rather he do some spastic post moves and hopefully draw some fouls on their switches. Get Rondo in the game

He drove and had half a step and went up and put it right on the square... nothing hard about it.

When you are playing a hobbled guard who doesnt play D regularly and two older slow guys, and a guy who is overburdened it happens. It's got **** all to do with Rudy lacking. Give the man some damn help.
