Concerning our commitment to Butler’s development: I said I’d check back in at about this juncture. I wasn’t going to get pissed before now, but I’m getting pissed now, fwiw. Things are bound to get even worse for Butler if we aren’t going to rest Conley in b2bs.

Not sure about him being better than Forrest overall. A more disruptive defender? Probably. But Forrest is showing some pretty keen awareness on offense that I never saw from Shaq (regardless of what team he was playing on). For me, the argument isn’t Forrest vs Dunn. Instead, it’s Oni versus...

I get that. But the top-line summary of why the Suns are a problem for us needs to be about their offense versus our defense: even with Rudy in the paint, they are perfectly build to expose our biggest weaknesses. That’s my point: they can go toe to toe with our best punch and hit us back harder.

Your interpretation of how your positions have been received around here is ****ing hilarious.

Why do you think that? Cuz of yer gut?

round 3 of LAL vs OKC is tonight. :p

Hmmm. O Hmmm I guess 1 vote for 5th place counts as being in teh running

No mention of him in the ESPN early simulation of mvp voting....unfortunately. And ESPN’s simulation follows pretty much the identical path that the actually voting does, so...

Clarkson is clearly not forcing things anywhere near the level he was 7 or so games ago. I really appreciate performances like last night in Philly where he was dialed way back and not dominating the flow hardly ever... because we didn't need him to... and I think he recognized that.

I'll take this L on my prediction. No problemo. Keep winning. Playing Conley was stupid, though.

I'm definitely enthralled when the shots are falling. But you'll have to sue me, I guess, because I enjoy watching a gritty defense more than anything else. That's always been the case, so..

you're crazy about the Suns, bru. If the way they generate their offense doesn't scare a jazz fan, then that jazz fan isn't paying attention, imo.

Any news on Embiid?

Fify

I love boxing metaphors.... and I would prefer my team not be in the “puncher” position.

Um.... the Rockets have won 7 in a row...

Pretty hard to beat us when we make 20+ 3s.

All this. I mean, I’m really not sure why this all isn’t obvious to everyone ... and why it isn’t clear that this is precisely why the issue has been raised.

Jazz: Udoka Azubuike: out (maybe ded), Hassan Whiteside: day to day (butthurt).

INJURIES: Timberwolves: D'Angelo Russell: out (ankle), Patrick Beverley: out (adductor), Jaylen Nowell: out (back). Russell has given us fits, so.... yay for us? Or, boo because we don’t get a better test?
