Bogey carried us offensively the first half 20 points on 8/11 from the field. Conley carried us down the stretch had 4 crucial points in crunch time.

Rudy dominated the entire game defensively. Like legend status ****.

Donovan had a rough first half only 2 points on 1/9 from the field and went playoff Don in the second half with 30 points on 9-20 from the field in the second half.

Royce hit the biggest shot of the game when it was a 1 point game to push it to 4 with under a minute left.

Good summary! I was distracted fighting zombies with my 3 year old grandson.
 
I think both teams have gotta feel pretty good tbh.

Dallas has gotta feel pretty good that they were within striking distance without their best player. Their defense was impressive and if they can keep the Jazz from going nuclear from the 3 point line, then they’ve gotta like their chances to be competitive.

The Jazz have gotten feel pretty good because they just stole HC despite having a subpar offensive game. Teams that win game 1 generally win the series. When Dallas went on that late run, we found a way to win.

One thing concerning to me is that we’re still getting nothing from our 3. Royce got the late 3 but we can’t wait until the final minute of the game to get pts from our starting 3.

The other concern for me is that after watching all the playin games and now Memphis/Minny, we are clearly the least athletic team out there. Can’t believe we haven’t addressed this issue. And it’s not like there haven’t been opportunities. Bane two years ago and Herb Jones last year. Herb should’ve been a no brainer. We needed a long athletic defender far more than another undersized shooting guard. These other teams have athletic wings that provide defense, rebounding, and those emotional fast break dunks that fuel runs. We don’t have that. Everything we do comes out of our set offense. That puts a lot of pressure for us to execute perfectly. It decreases our margin for error.

Just watched it after recording. We shot poorly and they played pretty darn well.

I understand the NBA is a business, but if the officials had called the same contact for us that they called for Dallas in the 4th quarter, we would have won by 20. Bojan, Conley and especially Donovan endured a ton of contact without a call.

With 50 seconds left, they had taken 16 free throws in the 4th while they still had a foul to give. I mean cmon.

But we won. Go Jazz.
