[LogGrad98]

Tbh, I don’t really enjoy watching 53 3-pt shots. I think they’d have to make an absurd number of them to change my feelings about that.

It’s especially bleh when the opponent takes 43. I feel sort of anesthetized.

It was a lot more fun watching the plays with Rudy under the basket.

Joe Ingles is old.
Rudy Gay is old.
Royce is small for a forward.
Mike Conley is small period.
Jazz shot like crap most the night.

Jazz won because of Gobert's rebounds and free-throws.

Royce shoots 1-for-9 and everyone praises him. I appreciate his rebounds as much as the next guy, but if we think we can't get more from a 30-minute player we're kidding ourselves.

This. He definitely shouldn't be off the table in trade talks.

I'm having a heck of a time trying to figure out the identity of this team.

It's a long season and just getting into the playoffs is paramount, but I'm honestly not seeing a lot of confidence in our ability to close out games right now. Our defense on the perimeter is just not good enough.

Clarkson was a -9 today. He's just not shooting the ball well this season.

Kevin Murphy led his GLeague team in scoring, rebounds and assists tonight. I think he would be better than Royce.

It's a re-run from 2 years ago, except that now everyone is older. Kind of like the late seasons of Sex and the City.

I'd keep him, but I think he's the Dorian Finney-Smith guy you play off the bench.

Jazz simply have to look for some perimeter defense/stretch four support. They don't grow on trees, but it's awful to watch.

Don't go too far.

If Joe lost 20 lbs he'd knock a few years off.

The Jazz players think they're better than they are. Bunch of posers. They have no killer instinct. The only guy who isn't scared to get dirt on his hands is Rudy.

Some things never change!
