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

Could Brantley possibly be that guy for the Jazz? The defensive stopper we so desperately need against the likes of Lebron, Harden et. al.?

He just needs to be average defensively and give the Jazz some size so they don't post up Royce with Millsap over and over.

Clarkson isn't going to let us lose this game

 

[Hekate]

Weird *** game.

 

[Troat Guru]

Donovan, no floaters please...

 

[LogGrad98]

Tough game. We really need to lose this one, but I'd love to see a win. Ugh.

 

[Hekate]

Mitchell is chucking the game away lol.

 

[Hekate]

And Gobert ain't helping.

 

[IBProfane]

This 2nd half has been pathetic. Every aspect of the game has been ugly.

 

[Bawse Dawg]

At this point a loss is of more benefit.

Win-Win situation.

 

[Goodluckchuck]

I think they have 5 or more offensive rebounds this quarter. They are playing a lot harder than we are

.......................... we subed in Conley for Clarkson and n ow we loosin

 

[cowhide]

what a complete choke job. Jazz playing really good defense and getting nothing on the other end. It is almost like they are afraid to shoot. Where is Joe and Conley/

 

[LogGrad98]

Mitchell with kind of a turd today.

 

[IBProfane]

Why did we go away from Ingles being the primary ballhandler?

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Win-Win situation.

Yes! This.

 

[latin jazz]

Maybe OT? then we put the bench in and lose it on purpose. Would be a moral victory.

 

[Release the Kraken]

Best case scenario IMO. Both Houston and OKC have our number, we can beat this team in a series!

 

[cowhide]

Jazz are physically and mentally weak. Just amazing how they just fell apart at the end. This pretty much shows me that the Jazz are going nowhere in the playoffs.

 

[Zombie]

Total collapse down the stretch. I'll take it I guess if we're trying to avoid Houston in the first round, but that was a frustrating way to lose a game that the Jazz had pretty firmly in hand.

 

[LogGrad98]

Well for one half we saw that we can actually play ball with all the scrubs. But the scrubs can't carry it to the end. This is the problem with 2 players that clash and filling in gaps with g league players.
