What's new

12/13 Golden State Warriors at Utah Jazz 7:00pm MST

The Jazz played well. I don't know if they keep stats on Big Al's push shot, but I bet he misses it more than he makes it.

But a lot of the boys are evolving. I mean Cj is awfully consistent, but i feel that its improving; but his in-traffic shooting skills certainly have increased. Fesenko is improving offensively, and defensively. Certainly a deeper team than last year. Ceilin is the limit, hopefully something we can acclaim with the arrival of okur as well.

Oh, and nice to have Booner back on the broadcast for a change. Not that I don't like Matty, but I've always liked what Boone brings to the broadcast.

Jeremy Evans playing = instant dunk

Looked like Deron got under Monta's skin, jazz defnse held Ellis to 16 points
 
It must really bug Gordon B Hayward that some unknown rookie named Jeremy is getting all the cheers.

Gonna be kinda hard when you're a dude that doesn't have a lot of physical ability and you don't show much on the court outside of getting burned and lost out there. He really looks like he has no idea what to do most of the time. I can't think of a player I've seen recently that has his same demeanor on the court.
 
Why did Evans hardly get any burn in the 2nd half? He was easily the best player we had in the 1st half.
 
Sometimes I don't know if I like watching Deron more in the game or on the bench. His reaction shots are just as good as the plays. That's a leader.
 
I like Jeremy Evans more than you do. I just do and everyone should accept that. Fight it out for second, I don't care who wins.
 
The whole Evans highlight reel was so good in the 2nd quarter that I was actually surprised we were losing at the half. It made me not care. But that has to stop. It's just ridiculous at this point how bad we play in the first quarters of games.

Who cares, we won. I want to see something more from Evans besides dunks before I call him the best player we have on the floor at any given time. I am happy for him, he got some minutes and he made them count. Can't complain about that. Well other than his conditioning. Was pretty obvious that he was gassed after his stint.

OTOH, as soon as Memo gets back, Hayward needs to head to Orem. He's not ready for the NBA game yet. Hell I'm not convinced yet that Evans is ready either, but at least he's contributing something when he gets in.

....hey Monte! Can we squeeze one more jail-house tat on that arm of yours???
 
The first quarter was the first time I had bad thoughts about Al. I still love the guy, but he's got to do a better job of picking his shots. It's the Tim Duncan learning curve (not that Al is ever going to be TD.) He plays like he's trying to get himself hot. TD doesn't care if he doesn't score ever. He just knows he will and takes the points where they come. Al will get there, but he has to forget the pressure and just play.
