[Gameface]

Mike conley with zero ****ing points! 0-7? Holy hell that is garbage. Plus he was getting destroyed on defense often.

Yeah his foul trouble is his fault.

He couldn't find a way to score a point in a playoff game.

Our starting PG didn't do **** in a playoff game.

I hope he goes home and thinks about his life tonight. This is his career. This is his playoff legacy.

It’s hilarious that some of y’all are shocked. This team has been telling you all year what they are… I told y’all Dinwiddie and Brunson could score 55+ in a game. I told y’all it wouldn’t be a sweep.

Luka gets some extra time to heal… we should still win the series but it’s like a 55% -60% proposition at this point.

Woof.

Yikes. Why can't Mitchell keep anyone in front of him? Why did Bogie leave his man?

Trivia question for the "Gobert got exposed" truthers: What happens if Gobert stays on the perimeter to guard Kleiber?

Good question. One none of them will answer.

Donovan “I’ll play better defense next game”….oh but not in a 1 point playoff game in the 4th quarter with 4 minutes left, I believe you bro. Maybe you can come out and shoot 1/8 in the 4th again too.


Overall this team just doesn’t have “it”. They may be the biggest “pretender” of a good team I’ve ever seen.

Btw don’t know if it’s been mentioned here but did anyone notice the awkward/weird mic’s up moment between Quin and Donovan we’re Quin was almost poking fun at getting Rudy the ball? Donovan gave like an awkward smile, and Quin played it off because Donovan had a hot mic on him lol.

I don’t have much respect for anyone on this team. Rudy to an extend, he fumbled some shots, but he’s been put in a no win situation. For all the hubbub about Donovan needing help or wanting out, Rudy should be the one demanding a trade.

I've lost a lot of faith in Quin Snyder if his solution to Gobert not getting the ball enough is to give him a post-up opportunity in a playoff game to let him embarrass himself on so that he can then supposedly move on.

When people say they want Gobert to get the ball more, nobody means in post-ups away from the basket. We're referring to when he has a smaller guy completely sealed under the basket and his teammates ignore him.

It’s on everyone at this point. I mean hell JB is murdering everyone and Quin/Rudy refuse to adjust the scheme to come up higher to take away his midrange… at least a little bit here and there to mix in some variety. This the same **** we have seen for YEARS. Good teams have figured it out. Every team seems to have a guard that can score enough in the midrange or a stretch 5 that can hurt us… it’s just wild we have ignored these issues. I mean some dummies on this site said we’d be sweeping these guys even though they have a poor man’s version of what the clips had last year.

I kinda hope we lose so I don’t have to watch this anymore and the front office gets a clear message that we are doggy doo doo

He had that smug convo with Donovan too “we fed the big guy… pause for smirk… keep looking for the lob”.

I’m convinced he’s outta here… I’m ready for it. Just don’t bring in Doc.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

Also I was watching on my phone and hit or miss but I swear o saw Royce gets stuck on a screen in the backcourt for like 7 seconds. It’s like he’s doing a parody of the guy we say he is.

 

[jope]

Just finished the game. Rudy is exactly who the narrative says he is on offense, and Don is exactly who the narrative says he is on defense and in clutch time. Both players are wildly one sided and until we get some 2-way players this will be a treadmill team.

Oh and Mike’s “veteran leadership” costed us this game, period.

Lol, judging by that awkward mic’d up moment between he and Donovan until Donovan almost told him with his facial expression “I’m mic’d” it was like Quin was clowning the “get Rudy the ball” stuff being pushed. Almost like he was okay with Rudy fumbling it because it would prove his coaching right/Donovan’s approach right. If it was what it came off as, it’s disgusting coaching.

It was terrible. Donovan gave him like a look as if to say “remember I’m mic’d up” and Quin tried to play it off. No wonder the Jazz are a joke, it’s starts with their joke of a coach and cliques on the team.
