Hopefully DOK finally gets activated during the homestand. He takes up space and can board with the best of em.

If Hardy isn’t going to play Kessler he’s not going to play Dok.

Ayton destroyed us inside we had no answer. Thst said he was over the back on LM a few times and got away with it.

Hardy not fouling there is a super rookie move… yeah we are totally going to secure a rebound and get a timeout in 2 seconds cuz we been crushing the glaSS

Just frustrating.

3rd game this season where the team plays its *** off but turns a sure win into a loss because the head coach lets the opposing team score at ease against Olynyk at the rim all 4th quarter.

Hardy owes the team an apology for that ****.

Hardy stealth tank or not so smart

 

[Step-Back Hook]

Dang diggity dong. Good fight.

Collin is getting better and makes much better decisions the more he has been getting time. I love to see it. OK he had a turnover in meaningful moment in the clutch but I am not gonna be mad. This game was a win if it wasnt a back end of b2b. Lauri is hstorically bad shooting in these. Found his touch too late tonight. But for the future this back to backs is a big issue for him to tackle. Shooting cant go from 50-40 to somewhere around 35-25 his career stats been in these. There are fifteen of these each season.

Also what about NAW?! GR3EAT DEFENSE but made some shots.

This game was showing good things and that coaching is doing things right. No matter which of these men are with Utah in few seasons I am counting for coach Hardy being in talks of coty season in and season out.

He better do something cause our rebounding down the stretch is what sealed it.

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Not fouling and letting the clock run out is a tank move, tbh, whether Hardy meant it that way or not.

 

[fishonjazz]

What in the actual **** were we doing not fouling? There was a 2 second difference?

The reporters better go after hardy hard for that one. Pure insanity. And you know what makes it even more insane? Booker didn't even get the ball! So we had opportunities to foul 2 suns players who aren't booker and still didn't foul. Suns set us up perfectly by not getting the ball to booker and we blew it.

 

[MT Steve]

Because we were going to grab a rebound with 0.8 seconds left call a timeout and hit the game winner.

Honestly, hitting a game winner with 0.8 seconds left seems a lot more probable than the Jazz getting a clean rebound with Olynyk inside.

From the 9:57 mark (when Kessler checked out) to the 0:58 mark, the Jazz got one defensive rebound.

The Suns got 8 offensive rebounds in that span.

Good job Hardy.

He a bully! Need to unleash the Dokenator on these bums!

I wish a reporter would bring up that stat and ask him about it.

 

[fishonjazz]

Borderline retarded not fouling on that last possession. We have 1.5 seconds best case scenario if we get it back with a perfectly clean rebound, which we didn't accomplish.

This. 1.5 seconds aint ****. And like you said, thats best case scenario. Plus who in the hell would think we would get a stop AND a rebound? Hadn't happened all game (hyperbole noted but still)

 

[fishonjazz]

Pretty stupid to settle for getting scored on every possession because "Oh Olynyk moves the ball around" (he had 0 points and 0 assists in the 4th quarter).

Nailed it.
KO gotta go

Seriously we could have fouled Payne. He’s not a bad FT shooter he’s around 80% but it’s better than Booker for sure.

 

[Jingled]

Jazz now just 2-7 in their last 9 games.

 

[str8line]

Hate to say it but if anyone lost us this game it was Lauri. That and Ayton was going to feast no matter who he was up against tonight. Good effort from everyone though.

 

[Elizah Huge]

Suns were super dumb fouling Clarkson there too. You do that when there is less than 7 seconds or so on the clock.

[reignman40]

Why didn't we go for a steal or foul immediately? They played it perfectly and took a 3 at the end of the shot clock. Game Over.

 

[sip]

That was a close one but once again a good result. I love losing while still seeing guys play. It is great to see NAW get some decent minutes and shut up some of the haters. Unfortunately when Conley gets back he heads back to the dnp's. Hopefully Ainge has some balls in the future and is willing to move the vets.

 

[jumpin bean]

Lauri and KO are not big or bulky enough to stop Ayton, they were just exhausting themselves which hurts their offensive game also.
