Game Thread Aug 08, 2020: Utah Jazz vs Denver Nuggets

[Pastramiking]

I think he did these things on purpose. Jazz were treating this game as pre-season. The Jazz got a lot of data yesterday on different lineup combinations.

When the Jazz play a 7-game series, normally the first game is to try things out and see what works and what doesn't. I think the Jazz were using yesterday's game to experiment, and they didn't care too much about the win.

Big mistake. You should always care and play for the win. Utah might end up against the Clips in Round 1 because of this loss and the spurs loss.
