The Cavs are hunting Kessler. They're involving him in as many pick and rolls as they can.

In other news, I cannot ****ing deal with Vando getting the ball at the FT line and not even looking at the basket.

That's going to happen a lot once Walker becomes a starter and he is more regularly going up against elite PNR guards.

Tough game without KO

Conley has been absolute trash since getting injured.

Clarkson has been as bad as I've ever seen him. This is the second game in a row where we're REALLY missing Sexton. Clarkson dribbles into the trees without a plan and just doesn't have what it takes to score or get fouled in there.

Things going about as I’d expect. Kinda miss Sextons energy.

This is a product of missing KO and just the simple fact the Jazz arent a good road team.

Except Lauri, all the other players suck tonight....2 in a row. Tank is on the way if we play like this.

Looking at the schedule, the next 10 games are mostly on the road. A very reasonable expectation is to go 4-6 or worse. This team will be a lottery team very easily. If they end up making the playoffs, it'll be a miracle.

The reality is that this Jazz team just isnt all that good. Being a fringe playoff, solid play-in team, just isnt all that valuable. We need talent.

We are a team that is better than the sum of it's parts, but when that magic isnt working, the individual pieces really get exposed.

This.

Conley, Clarkson and the bench have to be shooting about 20%. That won't win too many games.

Kessler is so soft sometimes.

He's rookie so it shouldn't be a surprise.
Even Lauri was a bit soft as a rookie in his 1st Bulls year.
But Kessler will get better don't worry of that.
