The shooting percentage by the Cavs was out of this world and we got outrebounded a ton. These last two games were royal buttkickings.

Yay we won the trade!!!
Yeah, he often has a huge first half and then barely gets the ball in the second half. Seems to be becoming a little bit of a theme.
True.
That 2nd half tonight was absolutely shocking to watch.
Mr Clarkson too often tries to be a hero especially in nights like today and last Sunday.
And who's stanting into corner like some freaking prancie
who can't do jack-**** to help his team even try to win the game? yes Lauri.
Right now mr Clarkson and Jazz as a team are sabotasing Lauri's allstar chances
and if it truly is so Hardy and other coaches cannot use Lauri better and get best games out for Lauri effectively
then what a hell he's doing in there huh? if Jazz truly are unable to help Lauri become a allstat then it might be better
trade Lauri into playoff team where he has a chance to be a 2nd or 3rd star and become a allstar.
Lauri's selection into allstar game this season is highly depend on that how well Lauri plays and how well Jazz plays as a team.
Because the allstar selections rarely comes those players who are playing into tanking or losing team.

Yeah you said it homey! Whooping it up too much after the NO sweep no doubt! It’s in the Bible you know, something about pride and the subsequent fall!

Might be time to unload Conley. Who wants him, what can we get and what will it cost?
That game was absolutely infurious to watch last 24 minutes.
I seriously thought to close my Finnish stream because i couldn't stay sanity
at some moments watching that Clarkson hero-ball circus any further but somehow i didn't close my stream maybe i'm masocist who goddamn knows.
It is absolutely true Jazz should recognice better when Lauri is hot.
But what you can do when your other guards are some freaking jockers etc clowns who do not have any Basketball IQ or they have tunnel vision.
Ainge's decision to not acquire legit backup PG will probably cost wins and maybe Lauri's allstar selection as well
because right now it look that Jazz are sabotasing Lauri's allstar dreams or then they don't want him become an allstar yet because the goal is to start TANKING some point of the season.

I had to work tonight but from the comments it pretty much played out as expected.
Looking at the boxscore JC took 21 shots. The 2nd highest was Lauri with 12 shots. Beasley took 10 shots and only made one of them.
Clarkson had zero assists tonight. His early season passing seems to be disappearing.
They also got badly outrebounded again.

That’s impossible. He was playing with Conley. If he was playing with Sexton he would be more motivated not to pass the ball.

Dok came in and got 4 boards in 5 minutes of garbage time or the rebounding would have been much, much worse.

Hardy isn’t getting the max out of his team if he doesn’t coach to get the ball more often to his best player. Lauri hardly touched the ball in the third quarter even when he was open for passes. This happens way too often in our games. Kessler is still raw but fun to watch. The bucket of the game definitely belonged to THT. I hope we get Sexton back for tomorrow’s game. Might be still too early.

Our defense is so bad we really have to have a good offensive game to win. The Cavs mostly played tight defense, but we also missed some open shots.
Early returns on the Vando and Kessler lineup is not encouraging. Kessler needs to play with 4 other guys that can spread the floor and with KO and Sexton out it's difficult to put that many guys on the court that defenses have to respect.

Life isn’t a sprint.. it’s a tankaton.
If it is so freaking difficult for Hardy and other Jazz coaches to get best out of Lauri every game
then why in the hell Hardy won't take consultation phone-call for Lassi Tuovi ( Lauri's national team coach ) and ask him how to use Lauri effectively.
Sometimes watching this Jazz team is almost same than watching Jim Boylen's Chicago Bulls into Lauri's 2nd and 3rd years.
And believe or don't that was brutal to watch. Oh well tomorrow is new game vs Pistons so perhaps that's a win hopefully
Lauri is having a career year by leaps and bounds and people are really bitching about Hardy not getting the most out of Lauri?
Y'all should be embarrassed.

I love the connection between Mike and Lauri. A lot of pass from Mike are for him. We shoot bad and rebound bad, no other reason to this loss. Maybe the guy didn't go 100% knowing Cavs were too good. And keep energy for tomorrow which is a much more winning game.

By thw ( and i'm not Don fan at all). Cavs use Don in a much better way we use him before. Garland conduct the game where he is much better than Don and Don can be focus on offense and put some effort on defense part as well. It works quite well.

The actual issue is not holding JC accountable for his 2nd half hero ball. Coach has no cojones to lecture him like he did for Collin. JC is Utah icon and older so nothing changes. He goes his ways and the team is getting worse each month if its not changing.
