That was way to close for comfort.

THT night overtake Sexton as PG. Much better defender and much higher ceiling.

He is good on D. Something I really like that maybe goes unnoticed is how he rotates to contests shots under the basket to help the big. He has a big body and long arms and usually does a good job on being pyhsical without fouling

Sexton is also a negative rebounding. Doesn't have any awareness on the boards.

Yeah, only issue is that I don't think he's great at guarding quick guys, especially through screens. His strength is more guarding the bigger wings/guards/forwards. He can really defend up a position with ease and makes transition difficult if he's back.

Disappointing loss, but lots of positives tonight as well. THT looked like he gained a level.

There is no such thing as a disappointing loss this year. Especially when the game is competitive.

I thought when Clarkson hit the shot to tie it late in the 4th that we had them. Wasn't to be.

THT is easily our most talented passer. He's a guy who can see a difficult passing window and instantly act on it. Most players have a level of fear of making hard passes that THT just doesn't have.

That is the good and bad with THT. The dude has no conscious which leads to some bad plays but it also allows him to stay confident and hopefully turn into a consistent player for us.

They outplayed the Jazz for sure, but they got a lot of 3s from bad shooters at the end. Terrible rebounding hurt the Jazz.

This.

If he could only shoot....an be less Alec Burks (every layup could make you laugh or pull out your hair, it's fun though)

Kessler gotta quit biting on pump fakes

He is showing a bit of his inexperience, still very good for a rookie. Also needs to learn to not leave his feet on help when he has zero chance of blocking (think mid range jumper). He needs to box out instead to avoid letting the opponent have so many 2nd chance points.

Tired of watching Clarkson's inefficiency.
