I love that offensive set that lead to hayward's dunk, it's really nice. I like Burks' too cause Favors made a great pass to him.

The Burks' one was beautiful on one more level - it is an almost perfect execution of a horns set where both bigs come out to the elbows ready to set a screen for the guard(Exum), but Exum chooses another option of the offense, passes it to Favors at the elbow, at which time Booker leaves the other elbow a few feet back so his defender won't have the time to interfere, Exum rushes towards Burks, sets a screen for him at which point Burks is free and 2-3 steps ahead of his man, Favors makes the pass while Booker's defender doesn't have the time to recover and he gets dunked on. Absolutely beautiful!

Exum seemed like he was trying to avoid non-existing block when he tried to finish at the rim. I think he's overthinking it and he seems scared from the physicality of the players in the paint.

This. Which is interesting, because if there's one thing I've taken from his play prior to these last two games, is that he hasn't mind taking it inside. Just go hard kid, it's ok if you get blocked once in a while!

Agree with this observation. May be he's too afraid that he'll get hit in the air and landed on his legs & injuring himself.
 
Dat Hayward yell after his dunk. Never seen or heard him like that before. Hopefully he keeps up that mentality throughout the year
 
Favors's pass to Burks before his dunk was a beauty.
Kanter with 5 TO's is bad. Be careful fella!
I think Jazzfanz will have planty of opportunities to appreciate the huge difference made by a good coach (QS) and a better PG-game (Burke showing good signs).
 
Damn that was NASTY from Hayward. Crazy to see his body hit Freeland's and just keep on rising. Love the attitude.
