Yeah, we're done here. Not enough offense when we needed it.
Well at least we will have to deal with a bit less Chicken Little over our draft pick position
A bit interesting Brice or Hendricks aren't in with the blow out unit
Cody looked a bit more confident on that 3ball off the hand-off. Baby steps.
Hey someone try another soft layup and see what happens.
The other guy who didn't play in the 2nd half and only logged 5 mins tonight was Taylor Hendricks. Somehow Taylor was -18 in the 5 mins he did play.

That was effing brutal. But great for the tank.

Lifeless performance. At least 2nd half was a bit better. Seems that Lauri has decided to become All NBA.

Tay Henny had zeroes all across his box. It was like they put someone from Jazzfanz in.
No way would I be shut out of the box score. I would have bear-hugged someone.
Cody needs to get his 3pt percentage into the 34% or 35% range and limit his possessions to no more than 2 or 3 dribbles and I think he's playable. He's moving well defensively, not getting faked off his feet, and staying in his lane on offense.
My problem with Svi is that he can be erratic, like no one knows what he's going to do sometimes, including Svi.

Cody ties with Slo Mo for third leading scorer on the team tonight.
Keyonte didn't have a great shooting night, but was still able to manufacture 17/8/9.
And shot a horrible percentage again. He seems to struggle when pressured.

Just finished the game. Flip shouldn't be starting. He needs to come off the bench.
Sensibaugh and Walt aren't playing well together. I wish Bryce was better defensively, he could be starting.
Ace is looking lost, Cody looks kinda ok.
Collier would really help the 2nd unit.

17 points on 10 shots is really good tho. His ability to get to the line is crazy

I'm embarrassed for feeling pretty good about this team over the last couple of weeks. New faces, same old BS.
We don't have the heart, will or brains to defend. Every rotation is ****ed up, every steady 3pt shooter left alone, and our rim protecting, bag-seeking center suddenly plays softer than a pile of wet toilet paper.
Speaking of Kessler – does he have a medical condition that prevents him from holding on to the ball? I mean it's getting ridiculous. Walker seems to have the same amount of grip strength as my mom, and my mom can definitely GRIP when the situation calls for it. No rebound Kessler gets is safe until it's in the hands of some other Jazz player.
Ace is two years away from being two years away as a serious NBA offensive option. He looks rushed, gets tunnel vision, doesn't trust his dribble, and keeps forcing stuff up from midrange. A true project who needs a LOT of work. It's painful to see how well some of the kids drafted after him are doing (to say nothing of the top 4). This was one pick that the Jazz couldn't afford to **** up, and the jury's still out.
