Game Thread Aug 23, 2020: Jazz vs. Nuggets - Game 4

Added to Calendar: 08-23-20

Lets be mentally prepared for bullsht calls on Jokic and Rudy on foul trouble. More games in those series are best for business.

Eh, idk if it really matters tbh especially in regards to Denver and Utah especially when you aren’t selling tickets.

For team revenues not, but for tv more games and another close series matter (and there won´t be one close series on the east first round). Not that i really buy it. Refs call it from inconsistent to lame all the time, and it's not something that the team can really control (outside of avoiding to foul, which i have my reasons to think they already do).
 
Go hard and attack them early ... put more doubt in their minds and the pressure will build ...

Looking at Mike Malone they are already beat
 
Even with the refs against us, I see the Jazz smoking the Nuggets. We are already in their heads, they are shook. Royce will lock down Murray again. Gobert will destroy that American History X outcast
 
At the end of game 3, Denver‘s body language was that of a team that as experiencing shell shock. No communication and dead eyes. They STOLE game one. The world knows this should be 3-0. I won’t play the role of “petty fan”, but there was a reason they took game one. Maddening....

Tonight is a must win. A chance to take their souls. Joe had his issues last game, but Conley and the bench hit timely shots to quell any run they made. Joe might have a big game tonight. He seemed frustrated despite the win. More times than not, the man has a short memory which serves him well...

I remember prior to the start of the playoffs, many “talking heads” we’re talking up how Utah would suffer the most without getting the benefit of playing games on their home court. Now I will admit, the way we finished those last few games during the restart, I was worried.

We always say “we could be dangerous“ and it ends the same way. No travel and the players getting more and more comfortable. If we get a couple of others to step up, I like our chances to get much farther than the “experts” thought...

It all starts tonight. I think Utah wins a close and ugly game to go up 3-1.

Maybe we get to shoot 50+ free throws lol....

I disagree with this. The jazz have a rhythm going and the offense is being run to perfection. Any kind of long layoff could do more harm than good. I feel this has screwed us before.

Agreed. Not getting playoff games in SLC were what the “experts” and the trolls kept pointing at. Hell, even I was worried...However, it’s been the opposite. Outside of that “brain fart” stretch in game one, we’ve adjusted well to almost every scenario. Team looks comfortable and is playing under control. When Jokic has to pop out to help, we are killing them. The bench guys are playing with confidence as well. Royce needs to pick it up. Joe will go off at some point.

I look for Murray to be much more aggressive. I worry he and Jokic shoot a ton of FT’s tonight. Denver has a way of doing that. Keep the Miami/Indy refs from yesterday away from us lol...
