Game 4: 11/3/2014 Jazz at Clippers. 8:30PM on ROOT

Don't look now but Hayward is 19, 6, and 5 on 48% and 37% for the season playing stiff competition.
Gotta like that
 
Also, Hayward is perfect from the FT line this year.

Probably just jinxed him for next game though.
Burks drilling them free throws too
 
I was super pissed about the officiating, but I hate blaming the refs.

It felt nice to see I wasn't alone in my assessment.

Of course there's a lot of things we could have done better, but it definitely didn't help our comeback.
 
The Kanter hate is off the chain.The kid actually played his azz off last night.Trey has looked like a lost puppy out there his whole time as a jazzman and gets a pass. Kanter I know cant cover alot of the stretch 4s like Griffin and Aldridge but who in the league does,but he wouldnt be as bad in the picknroll if trey wasnt so bad up top.Kanter plays hard and still gets dissed,I dont get it.why does there have to be a scapegoat every year.
 
That was the play of the day for me(along with the Booker putback):

One of my favorite parts of that play was Burks's reaction afterwards. He's usually pretty calm on the court, but he was really fired up.

Agree about Kanter. He certainly has defensive deficiencies but last night I was willing to trade those for his rebounding and offense. Who knows tho..

Because every time Kanter was on the court he just got put in a PNR and got abused by Griffin?

Burke was bad too, but I noticed him actually making some defensive plays and some nice passes. The offense can still run with him. Our offense wasn't bad with Kanter, but I never really see him as a cog in the offensive machine. He doesn't pass out of the paint consistently and his main offense goes against the team concept. When he is at his best is most likely when the team isn't doing what it wants to do.

Throughout the season I don't we will see much correlation between Kanter playing well offensively and the team winning.

Guarantee we will see that correlation with Burke though.
 
Kanter was very big alesque last night.
Put up good numbers, made some really nice moves in the paint, even had a big al push shot™
Defensively left alot to be desired
