Countdown to Game #1 - Utah Jazz @ Sacramento Kings

Mitchell really plays like crap and puts up 24. What happens once he finds his groove? 40+ on the reg?

Typical win against Sacramento - last season 2 of Utah's 3 wins against The Kings were underwhelming to say the least. They almost stole one in Utah late in the season.

WCS had a game like this against Gobert last year - he just has his number I guess.

Rubio might have had his worst game ever as a Jazz player - that's saying a lot considering how he played in the beginning of last season.

This is refreshing to say - Jazz probably would have lost this game without Exum and Burks.

Rubio was overall our best player through the first 10 or so games last year. He definitely wasn't good tonight.
 
The starters really haven't played well even in the preseason. I wouldn't be shocked to see a mix up if this continues the next few games. Maybe Rubio with Exum. Or Crowder with Favs? Hopefully the starters figure this out quick.

Really only a few people had truly good games: Gobert, Ingles, Exum, Burks were the 4 that really stuck it most of the night. Favors bounced back and came on strong at the end. Crowder did fine, but if that is all he has to offer he won't play much. But the rest really need some work. First game jitters. Mitchell started to look in form toward the end of the night. Rubio just got out of the blocks poorly. They need some solid game tape sessions and practice before the next one. Shake off the rust, get the gears to mesh. We will still come on strong. When we are firing on all cylinders we will be very very hard to beat.

Yeah, 30+ pretty easily. Sacramento guarded him well with Yogi Ferrell on his hip, followed by Iman Shumpert being physical with him.

Yeah I think their physicality caught him by surprise a bit and threw him off. They obviously had a game plan to take him out of the game that worked pretty well. They followed up on our last game of the pre-season by preparing for us. We looked like we expected them to roll over and play dead. That is a good combination to lose what should be an easily winnable game. And I don't think we beat the spread either, so some ref somewhere won a bunch of money.
