Should we be sad that we were supposed to tank last year and didn't, and to win this year but aren't?

Yes of course.

It’s this magical thing called defense. We should try playing it more often.

I think he was saying we should be trying to lose for the tank.

Great 4th quarter comeback. Maybe Kessler being hurt all season has been kryptonite. I thought we would lose by 30 at half.

Jazz definitely missed kessler. Jazz fans forget how good he was last season. He struggled this season but apparently he got hurt in game 1 and tried to play through it. That could explain his struggles. Probably shouldn't have been playing.

Also , theoretically, I should want us to aquire Ingram and that he is pretty damn good, it just seems like he just falls flat a lot when it counts. I can't really put my finger on the issue there.

Ya he is a tough one to figure out. I have a hard time gauging how good he is and what type of contract he is worth. Physically and skillset wise he seems like a star player but he just seems to be on a lower level to me.

He is quietly (or loudly since its been brought up a fair bit) becoming what we all hope he will be. A lockdown defender and 3 ball shooter. His defense is already great, just need his shot to really come around. Actually I just googled. 37.2% from three aint bad.
Hopefully hardy continues to give him big time minutes. He is also really good at keeping the ball moving and making quick decisions. Even getting a little better off the dribble (like his and one 3 point play last night)

Agreed although I will say Hardy started Tecchi over Agbaji last night because Simone had more length to defend Ingram. The lack of playmaking will always be an issue but Ochai does well moving the ball/moving off the ball within Hardy's offense. Definitely a rotation player but I still don't have him as a lock to start on a future playoff team.

Just looked up Brandon Ingram to see what his profile and stats have to say.
26 years old (perfect), 6 foot 8 with good length and positional versatility (perfect), 25 points (50% from the field), 4.6 rebounds (should be a bit better imo), 5.3 assists (pretty good).
Under contract for this season and next season for 33 and 36 million.
After looking that up I still dont know how i feel about him or if I would want him on the jazz. Im guessing his next contract will probably be more than I would want to pay him.

One thing is for sure, he smokes all the weed. He looks high as **** in his profile picture on basketball reference lol.
 
The only downside with this win is it makes it harder to see Clarkson come back and dominate possessions with his drives to nowhere with ultra contested shots. No to mention his turnovers. Hopefully Hardy keeps beating this share the ball idea into everyone's head.
 
Watching the replay as I didnt catch it live, man, I forgot how miserable Walker was at post moves for a minute while he was out. Just watched him put up some weird flip shot over Cody Zeller in the final minute of the 3rd quarter like he was trying to shoot over an elite shot blocker.
