Royce will get very little credit for a performance like this, but as soon as he plays bad people will question if he belongs in the league. He may not be perfect, but we desperately need him.

Yes, I love me some Royce O’Neale.

I literally denied the NAW-Bogey comp in a post right before you. NAW will be in the forward rotation and compete with House for minutes at the SF spot. he ain't got nothing to do with Forrest. Our backcourt rotation is solid as it is.

Naw won’t play… he’s not better than our other options.

Well the one play Walker made didn't end up in a basket but he looked pretty damn dynamic.

I would never slap Dok. That is a giant man.

Really, really encouraging to see Donovan play so well on defense. Him going from a horrible defender to even average defender completely changes our title chances.

Dok turning in to a playable NBA player is very surprising to me. If he can just focus bringing energy vs trying to play a game plan, he seems to do much better. He reminds me a little of Fesenko in that I'm not sure he's serious enough about basketball to really stick in the league.

The announcers made a great point last night.
Rudy should be very happy that Whiteside and Dok are playing well. It should keep him fresh.
I would like to see more Paschall, though.

If this defense continues, are the jazz contenders?

When he plays like that, he's awesome. He doesn't a majority of the time though. He's par in every aspect of his game besides he's above average on D and he can sometimes, every once in a while play great defense.

Compare his stats to Paschall playing far less minutes

Getting nearly 30 pts out of your center position is extremely good no matter the era. Remember when we were happy when Ostertag could just give us maybe 4 pts a game?
