Yeah his shot looks really good and effortless. The Jazz value him for his potential to be the type of player NBA teams today are looking for - 3-point shot, defensive skills, length, will get much stronger.

I don't want LaVine. Let him go somewhere else.

Putrid for sure. LaVine had a total of 2 points with FG% 11.1% and plus/minus -22 in 25 minutes playing time. What's going on with the Bulls? Locker room issues or something else?

I would add Sexton and Agbaji on this list. They had 11 and 12 points with a good shooting efficiency in only 17.40 and 16.27 minutes of play. Sexton also moved the ball well although it doesn't show in the AST stat.

Improved defensive effort and moving the ball to find open shooters won this game for us.

Well done! Great game.

Hardy needs to put the Young Bull back in.

Kessler great on both ends, looks pretty dominant out there right now.

Well, I guess he could be “friendly” with him but still not eager to play with him. Idk.

I dug into this earlier out of curiosity, and it seems to me that LaVine might've been part of the reason Lauri asked to be traded out of Chicago. LaVine's unwillingness to pass the ball to his teammates and coaching decisions put Lauri in a position/role where he felt he couldn't play to his...

And they moved the ball better too

Sexton came in fired up on the 4th quarter with 10 points and 5 assists.

A lot of talk here (and in some of our other threads) about how to built our team and whether to keep Lauri. I’m definitely in the camp that wants to keep him. My reason for this is simply that this way we’ll have a chance to become a contender much sooner. I'm not a fan of waiting in our...

The word "intention" you use is the key word here. The best guards often drive to the paint with the sole intention of collapsing the defense and kicking the ball out. And they often already know at the start of their drive who they’re going to pass the ball to.

Exactly. The winning offensive formula in today’s NBA is to find an open 3-point shooter by moving the ball around or by driving to the paint and passing the ball out. When you watch the best teams, you see this all the time. They use the ball movement and driving as tools to get the ball to an...

LOL so some analyst and a former teammate know these things.

Who's Laurie? Does she play basketball?

The biggest negative for Key as a rookie starter imo is its effect on our defense because defensively Key and Clarkson are the worst starter guard duo in the NBA.

Rookies are often overhyped, and this has been no different with Keyonte. He has shown promise to be a good player in the future, but right now he’s a rookie with rookie mistakes and can’t defend (like most rookies) and shoots poorly. I wish we had a good point guard so Key could come off the...

The most intriguing (in terms of fit) Lauri trade talk I have read so far come from the Pacers’ fans who realize what Markkanen and Haliburton duo could do. Mike Conley once said that Lauri is a dream player for a playmaker. Lauri and Tyrese together would be a problem.
