Svi is really the worst of all worlds. I just don't get Hardy's fixation with giving him 28 minutes a night.

 

[str8line]

Lauri's athleticism blows my mind at least once per game.

Brice just isnt an nba player. A cardboard cutout is the equivalent of what he does on defense

 

[Shad]

You can turn this game off after the first quarter

The Jazz drafted the wrong Florida guard in 2025.

 

[Qman]

It drives me crazy that no one can execute the defensive game plan.

 

[homeytennis]

Some positives: Key, Ace, Slo Mo and Brice. Cody, Kessler and Kevin Love led the team in +- in the box.

The weird thing is he’s shown some flashes of competence/hustle on D, but there just seems no mental fortitude in sustaining it for a whole game

It’s just a really bad defensive team. Thank goodness, tbh- I haven’t looked at numbers, but I’d guess their offense at least NBA average. Which would mean at least a .500 record if their defense were worth a ****.

Ace is progressing well.

 

[KqWIN]

The Anderson minutes have been great.

He can still help a team win

I just looked cause I was curious as well.

We are second to last in defense (only the Wizards are worse) but 15th in offense (I'm not sure if it has been updated from tonights slamming we got)

 

[Tremendous Upside]

Nurk's "interior defense" is pretty much all the tank commanding we need. I mean anywhere else he would be suspended for conduct detrimental to the team.

The fact that we haven't even tried to pick up some rim protector off the scrap heap after Kessler went down is all I need to know about what the FO wants to do this season.

Not a surprise, though. This team wasn't going to be a challenger regardless, but without Kessler it was pretty obvious the season would be quite miserable.

- Keyonte had some incredible passes in this game. His activity level on defense is very high this year.
- Lauri is already wearing down. He missed so many bunnies in this game that just looked like he was too exhausted to finish. Maybe this game convinces him and the team to give him some more rest.
- Ace looks incredible off ball, but struggles on ball. Does that mean he might not be a good fit next to Lauri and Kessler? Is that too many off ball players? Do we think he can improve enough to play more on ball eventually?

Wow Cody did not get even one minute
Not good
