Well, it's working like a charm.

Hendricks ends his scoring drought dating back to last Wednesday.

Jazz are shooting 12.5% from 3pt, and it's like they're only shooting 3s.

We are now.

Ace got Kalk-blocked.

They're -9 in 2 mins.

It's probably not that he's in the doghouse. It's that he needs to play next to a defensive 5, and Walker is out. So Hendricks plays next to Nurkic and Lauri plays next to Love.

Here's the Ace, Brice, Walt lineup with Love at the 5. Everyone hold hands.

Walt having a 6'4" wingspan is a limitation, unfortunately. And Brice doesn't exactly move great laterally.

Mostly due to injuries to Thomas Bryant and Isaiah Jackson. Are you saying he's good now?

Right now, Brice and Walt are below average defenders due to physical limitations. (Ace also misses rotations and close-outs, but that’s more processing than ability.) Put those two on the floor together with Nurkic, who can no longer guard space well, and the Jazz bleed points pretty fast...

Ace is learning the game. It’s new to him. He has physical advantages, but a bit like Cody last year, he needs to add some strength to really bring those tools out. He’s also been recovering from a bad flu that took him out of preseason. He’s behind in his conditioning.

He’s probably around 6’4.”

Keyonte didn't have a great shooting night, but was still able to manufacture 17/8/9.

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...

No way would I be shut out of the box score. I would have bear-hugged someone.

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.

Cody looked a bit more confident on that 3ball off the hand-off. Baby steps.

Yeah, we're done here. Not enough offense when we needed it.
