Game Thread Jazz/Heat scrimmage game 2

No mask, shades, or subway can hide my enthusiasm for the return of Jazzbasketball.

Conley in the 3rd quarter is the Conley we hoped we were getting all year. Hope he plays like this the rest of the season.

Conley is much better when he just dribbles into the lane and freelances, instead of trying to run whatever it is that Quin wants him to do.

Jazz should let Conley handle and let other guys knock down shots.

I can see it.

That was not a foul.

Beautiful block by Rudy and they call a foul.

Starters have looked better tonight than the 1st day, but enough of them, time for the 3rd stringers.

we have to come up with a name for this lineup

Mudiay Spider Chicken

This bench rotation in the 3rd quarter ain't it.

How about replacing Bradley with either Morgan or Brantley and see if it opens up the floor.

Tucker seems to be at the top of the 3rd string pile through the 1st two scrims.

Jazz are small right now, but they're athletic with Morgan and Tucker. Mudiay and Tucker also do a good job of rebounding.

Tucker would make a better running back than basketball player.

Can we blame Exum for this?

I don't get why he gets the most minutes from all the rookies, especially given our abundance of guards and shortages at 4 and 5.

In terms of +/- Tony Bradley was -17 in just 14 minutes. That's pretty eye-opening.

Rudy and Royce were +15.

Bradley finished with zero points on 0/1 from the field, 2 rebs. and 4 fouls in 14 mins. He really struggled against Olynyk.

Looking at the highlights though, the Jazz's second unit was off on several of their defensive rotations that weren't really Bradley's fault.

My thoughts after watching the game, but before reading through the thread:
Gobert was amazing on both ends. The difference in quality of play from when he was on court vs off court was drastic. Just showing once again that he is the most important player on this team. Over his career the number one thing that is so great about him over any other statistic is simply how much better the team is when he is on the court. And thats really the most important stat. Stay healthy Rudy.
Tucker has great size, athleticism, effort/motor, and attitude but he just doesn't seem to have a good feel for the game imo and he gets out of control too often and tries to do to much.
I thought brantley looked pretty good on both ends again though he didn't get much of chance to show much.
Conley had a nice little stretch but i still thought that he sucked for the majority of the game and I think mudiay has been better than him all year and if we arent going to put Spida where he belongs (at the point) then i would prefer mudiay starting next to mitchell.
I am really liking these games in the bubble. Cant put my finger on why but I prefer these games to normal games as of now. The officiating seems better somehow so far. I liked the nba promo commercials a lot. My god Lebron is a freak of nature. That commercial showing him shooting shirtless? Holy ****.
Cant wait for the next game. Im really enjoying these games so far.
Oh and I think what keeps us from going far this year is not having a number 1 option on offense that is as good as the best teams in the leagues number 1 option. Basically Mitchell needs to take a decent size leap for this team to really be contenders.

Now im going to go through this thread and read all ya'lls dumb *** takes

Dude does like to shoot. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing.
