When does the damn game start? Utah Jazz (13-12) at Memphis Grizzlies (14-13), 9:30 p.m. (ET)

What I liked about Hayward tonight is that he did it all. He hit the 3, he hit the mid-range, he drove to the hoop and scored, he drove and kicked for easy shots, he ran the break and finished hard.
I hope to see more of it. The kid has talent.

Hayward had a swagger tonight that I haven't seen since the end of last season from him. He was continually trying to dunk on people, hitting the step back 3 (foot on the line - long 2, but it's still his mind set), fadeaway jumpers over gigantic gasol.

Hayward optimism from last year quickly returning.

Gotta get the win tomorrow in NO. Second game of a back to back, but the hornets are awful. These are the road games you gotta get.

Fun game. Very happy for the team and their effort. Big Al has GOT to figure out how to pass more. Shooting the ball against a triple team is just plain stupid. I don't care if it did go in, that was just plain black hole selfish. Millsap is the anchor. I love his efforts and smarts.

Did you watch the game at all Al was brilliant, and had 4 assists, and dominated Gasol!

I wonder if Al's selfishness gets to the big men. I haven't seen Milsap pass much and Favors has like 8 assists the enitre season or something.
Lol I remember that triple team play that you're talking about...that was soooo dumb

I agree. I want the Jazz to blow out the Hornets tomorrow night so they get as much rest as they possibly can for the rematch against OKC on Tuesday. They have to. The Hornets have the WORST record in the Western Conference. I have realized something. Gordon Hayward needs to be our #2 scoring option. If he is on, it takes a lot of pressure of Millsap. Millsap's ideal role on this team should be the #3 scorer, IMO. Gordon has been playing much better of late. One could say that he is returning to his late-season form from last year. If Mr. Hayward can become a consistent 15-20 ppg scorer, the Jazz will become a much, much better team. His perimeter scoring ability opens up things down low for Milly and Big Al. Mr. Jefferson was simply outstanding tonight. Not only did he have 21 points, but he also had 15 rebounds. The play, IMO, that was most impressive by Al tonight was the one in the 4th quarter when he passed up a jumper and instead passed it to Raja for a three late in the shot clock. Big Al played very unselfishly tonight. He even passed an ally-oop to Paul.

This is one game where Jefferson Haters need to just say Big Al played a good game. It was better than Millsap's. 21, 15, 4 is pretty dang good.

Truth. Al played a great game. Gasol was very obviously motivated to dominate, it was a great battle to watch.

21 points and 15 boards isn't good enough for you....and a win, and keeping an all star in check?

I guess everything is Jeffy's fault.
If other players don't pass much, then it's Jeffy's fault, even though the jazz had 26 assists tonight

Millsap had 4 assists tonight, and so did Jeffy....Favors even had one....Harris had 3

 

[Brown Notes]

Griz really need another Center. That Iranian guy blows. Gasol is going to die playing all those minutes every night.

No, Al had a really good game, that was just a side-thought
