Burks doesn't shoot the open 3 and it ****s us over.

Yup he should have shot that.

Still surprised he didn't score anyway... Burks on the baseline going at the rim usually results in pts

Something's clicking, I'm starting to feel better about the Jazz, and I think Gobert has a lot do with it

I think a lot of the TOs the waddling ducks had in the 1st quarter were from Gobert standing in the paint.

@davidjsmith1232: Quietly, @AlecBurks10 is having a very good game: 9 pts, 3 asts, 3 rbds, 2 stls. #UTAatNOP

People who thought Exum was going to come into the NBA and just be able to drive all the time, are delusional. He's a 19 who needs to gain muscle and get stronger first off. He needs to gain confidence and that will come after he gets experience. Exum to me has shown pretty much what I expected for a kid so far.

I expected him to drive, get banged a lot in the paint... miss a lot around the rim, get blocked some because of lack of strength... I expected him to shoot spot up 3s. But he's scared of contact. Whenever he sees a body in front of him, he either dribbles back and gets away from the paint or throws a desperate floater trying everything in his power to avoid any contact inside the paint.

I agree.
Gobert simply effects the game just by being out on the court.

His mere presence is a factor

Some posters here want Exum to fail so bad.

I think they might be undercover Magic fans.

I'd rather have him do that then recklessly drive and have a higher chance of getting injured when he knows he isn't strong enough.

Burks putting some arc on his jumper. Nice to see. Expect his percentages to go up in a month.

 

[Doublea]

I'm confused. Do we want to win this game?

 

[yamers]

wow kanter is beasting

 

[Doublea]

It's crazy how davis and Asik are one of the worst at guarding inside. Lol at Harpring saying they are probably one of the best.

Good hell, what is up with Kanter?
