Jazz against Memphis 29 minutes away

Notice how Favors passed the ball back to Burke with 2 seconds left. This happens a lot. Not the sole reason for Burke's low FG%, but a big part of it.
 
And they are also playing a better, more experienced team with a big man who is an exceptional passer. Memphis is simply better so they'll make the Jazz look bad more than the Jazz make Memphis look bad.

Grizzlies OffRtg on the season: 105.1
Tonight so far: 123.6

You'll excuse me for not sweeping this embarrassing defense under the rug with a "Well the Grizzlies are just good". It's really not even like the Grizzlies are just making tough shots. They're constantly burning the Jazz off the ball because the Jazz are not paying attention to their man. The rotations have also been surprisingly lazy compared to what we saw last month.

Same theory advanced by Cy, but I don't see it. Let's keep track of his bad shots from now on.
 
Pics or it didn't happen. Do you want to be known as the guy who glued hair to your scalp?

Ya, bummer, I have a much higher expectation for a team made up with ~50% D League fodder playing major minutes.

Hence why I said The rotations have also been surprisingly lazy compared to what we saw last month.

As in, relative to how they usually perform. They didn't often let their opponents score at a better rate than their average, and when they did it was generally because their opponents made a lot of tough shots.
