Even though I’d rather stick to the scheme that got us to the playoffs, I feel there’s a lot of misunderstanding about the strategy we attempted. 1. Harden has a ridiculous “points per possession” rate when he shoots his step back threes. That means that allowing him to get that shot means that...

Don’t.

Let's. Go. Jazz! Been a long weekend working on different projects, but I'm so excited to cap that hard work off with some Jazz playoffs.

Other than this being how a typical player (or you) would feel, what evidence points to this? Favors seems to be very even-keeled and very happy to be here. I haven’t seen anything in his comments or body language or history that indicates he’d want to leave.

Wait how did this become a “our point guards are the worst” thread so quickly?

That’s not how commentating works, but I think Smith could probably do an okay job with play-by-play.

It's possible, but my bet is if he became our starting guard, everyone would turn on him quick. There's no denying that a big part of his charm now is the fact that he comes in and shines in limited minutes. If he started playing against starting quality guards all the time, his weaknesses would...

Hey I know this is a long shot, but it looks my DVR is recording the wrong thing for the past two Jazz games. It's college basketball instead, even though it's title/description match the correct Jazz game. Live TV shows the same college basketball as well. Pulling my hair out right now trying...

Shout out to all the people in here siding with science and trying to explain things. It's exhausting work, but I'm glad some of y'all are willing to do it.

You're kidding yourself if you don't think Ricky's received the largest share of criticism on this forum besides possibly Dante. Like where are these supposed frequent gripes about Royce and Neto? Seriously? I think he has a point in that Joe Ingles has had plenty of disappearing acts this...

Jazz don’t seem mentally prepared today. Lots and lots of defensive lapses.

Definitely a joke. Mitchell probably gave him a hard time about just missing out on a 20/20 or something.

I've watched every game this year, thank you: the miracle of DVR. I think he's been fine, especially with team defense. Part of the Jazz system is to funnel guys in toward Gobert. I guess I can see "average," but I certainly can't see "dreadful."

Thought this said "Jazz Play Magic: the Gathering" for a second.

Individual defensive stats are never perfect, but he is top ten in defensive real plus minus so far this season. I don't think he's terrible on defense at all. EDIT: top ten *among point guards*

It’s fun reading these posts and seeing why google translate said what it did. (No insult intended, it’s just sincerely fun). I think Dante and Ricky actually share more in common at this point than you’d think. They’re both PGs who would rather pass than shoot. Neither shoot particularly well...

Another fun fact: As far as I understand, Rodney Hood was fined for it and Russ wasn't.

That’s fair. I think he succoms to the pressure to carry us at times, because I agree that he has the eye and the willingness to pass.

And then Donovan sets up two nice plays in a row. He’s had a good passing night tonight—weird criticism to bring up this night.

This is a classsic case of a team packing the paint hard and the Jazz not being able to punish because they simply can’t hit anything from outside.
