Can the Jazz stop the Golden State Warriors winning streak?

Facing Golden State is how it must feel to face the White Walkers in game of thrones. I'm not even on the team and I'm kind of scared for Monday night.
 
Gotcha. And realistically, the Jazz have nothing to lose by taking chances. They should go all out to compete with them.

And honestly I want to see the guys go out and play hard to try to be the ones to break the streak. I don't think they will, and that's fine, but I would like to see this young team hungry to prove themselves. It'll be fun.


Or a bloodbath.

A Stanis Borathian type bloodbath ...
 
They are going to feast from 3

most teams feast from 3 on us and we are facing the best 3 point shooter in history. Burke and Neto ain't stopping him.

we dont match up well at all.

QS should warn Neto that if he goes under one screen against Curry he's watching the rest of the game from the bench.
 
I will be shocked if the Jazz beat the Warriors. The Warriors are just playing with teams. They are never out of a game with their 3 pt shooting. Green might go down as one of the greatest 2nd round picks. Curry is the best player in the league. They have a deep bench and play as a team.

For the Jazz to have any chance they need to play an inspired game, meaning a full game. They can't have a bad quarter and they have to make shots. I would like our chance better with Exum, but in the end this Warrior team may go down in history as one of the best teams of all=time. I hope the fans show up on time and jacked up. The Jazz need to give their fans some reason to believe, the beginning of the game is very important. If the Jazz lay an egg out of the gate then the game could get real ugly.
 
The jazz need to surprise them with something.

If I were Q, I'd do something outside-the-box, like putting Rudy on Draymond. He's definitely mobile enough, and could seriously choke off one of the main conduits on offense. Favors can guard the C and protect the rim. And, while Neto is a pesky defender, I'd say this game is a candidate for starting the 3-wing lineup and putting someone bigger on Curry.

Hopefully Joe found a rhythm last night; and hopefully Burke returns to his increased efficiency and production. The bench is going to need to play their best game of the year.
 
Somebody will have to guard and stop Curry for us to have a chance....

The stage is set for Neto. Its not like any familiar faces have been able to slow him down. This is one of the matchups I like what Snyder is doing with the starting line-up. Hopefully Raul can avoid fouls, but I'll also be glad to see him use them generously -- whatever works just keep him out of rhythm..





Anyone see an early line for this game? I wouldn't be surprised if its under 10 points.
 
So much hyperbole. Knock lil Stef down a few times, take advantage of an injured Harrison Barnes.

Favors and Hayward need to come up big here. Hope the 6th man helps out, too.
 
I watched part of their last game against SAC. The Warriors are playing very aggressively on defense and the refs are swallowing their whistles. We need to take it to them in the beginning, very aggressively on defense, and knock them off stride. But on offense we need to be careful not to get into a running game with them. That's what happened to SAC -- they started playing helter-skelter and the Warriors just killed them with open 3's in transition.

If Booker can bring it like he did against NO, he can match up well with Green. He's as quick or quicker, and as strong, and probably a better leaper. But he needs to take care of the ball -- the turnovers will kill us in the open court against them. Has anyone heard if Favors is playing? Also, I think Withey can be useful because with the aggressive physical play, we probably will need to use all our fouls. Fouling, to some degree, might not be so bad, because it will slow them down, so long as we don't foul 3-pt shots.
