Game Thread Aug 01, 2020: Utah Jazz vs Oklahoma City Thunder

Holy crap niang is bad today. Maybe his worst game ever? Bradley too for that matter. Did he have 6 fouls in like 12 minutes or something?
He was terrible in the first game too.
 
Our perimeter defense is so porous that we need to give him a try. There’s absolutely zero upside to continuing on as we have been.
He seems to know how to rotate and has quick feet and recovers well. I wouldn't mind him replacing Mudiay in that 3 guard line-up.
 
Spyda has been disappointing so far but he needs the ball in his hands more. What Quin is doing with him right now makes no sense. I've always had Conleys back and still think he's a good to great player but Donovan needs the ball. This team is a first round exit and then it's time to revamp the roster. The good thing is, we have a solid foundation with Spyda, Ingles, Gobert, Bojan, hopefully JC and though I'm not as high on him as everyone else Royce is a solid all around player and has his role. Niang, Mudiay, TB, are gone I hope. Well I'd take Mudiay at a discount, theTB and Niang experiment should end.

Who knows though? Maybe this team rattles off a few straight but I think we all see that this team has some glaring weaknesses.

It’s certainly alarming that Mudiay has been coming in at the first substitution. I think Mudiay has a place in the rotation on some nights, but he shouldn’t be a 7th man.

Jazz laid an egg. They looked slow and sluggish. Thunder might be a good team, but the Jazz should have been able to make a shot and get a rebound. They were completely outworked up and down the roster.
 
No surprise at all .
Jazz lack the amount of talent many other teams got. You need lots of hard work and chemistry to make it up for it, and chemistry does not appear to be there anymore. Roster's got about half dozen good guys that should be fighting hard for the last spot or 2 on most teams. Bogey out. Mike a shadow of his own self.
Does not look good. Suddenly I've realized that there have been very good times, but mostly it's been a hard team to watch for quite some time now.
Hope I'm just horrible at watching basketball.
