Luka won’t play in Game 3. At the earliest we will see him back Game 4 in my opinion.
Jazz need to come out with urgency. We need to win this series. We could potentially be playing the Pelicans or a Booker-less Suns depending on how bad his injury is. We know how prolonged they can be with Conley’s situation last year and if he does play he will be severely limited like Harden last year.

I think Booker will be alright by the time Round 2 rolls around.

I first read this as “I think Boler will be alright” and I wondered WTF happened.
Mike Conley should be EXTREMELY well rested.

If I'm Quin and Luka is playing, make him play D, run him through screens and let's see how that owie is doing. Sloan would do it, George Karl would do it, but I know it might mess up the system.
I think Booker might be ready for the next round too. The problem is that the Suns might not make it to the next round.

It definitely puts now more weight on CP3 and his hammies. Hopefully this goes now to 6-7 games.
One thing that needs to return is 3 pointers off the dribble. The Jazz are in their own heads. They don't want to shoot the ball because they're scared *****ess, but all it's doing is leading to missed shots inside the paint and easy transition baskets the other way. Mitchelll, Conley, and Clarkson have to let some shots fly or we're going to run into the same problem.
Oh, and if Quin could make an adjustment after 3 years of embarrassment on defense that would be nice too....but that is an unreasonable ask.

Making an adjustment means that your initial plan was wrong, or at least not completely appropriate or right. But Quin is a professional and his first instinct is usually right, so 'adjustment' is kind of a non sequitur.
