Game #7: Grizzlies at Jazz, Friday 01/06/2012 7:00 MST

The defense is looking much better. My question is was the good defense from last night us or the Bucks bad offense?

Afraid it was mostly their play. They looked like they did not want to be out there.

No ZBo? we have hope then.

Let's go back in time.

I come on this forum because I want to talk basketball.

Anytime I spell anything wrong or say something that isn't popular. I get attacked with all sorts if insults. And then when I fire back, I get reported. So I decided I would just start dishing out the same crap that everyone else is serving.

That's it. Pretty simple. You wanna fight? Then let's fight. You wanna talk basketball? Then let's talk basketball. Quit crying that you can't take some of your own medicine.

First off bluesrocker you have never done anything to me personally and this is not an attack against you so you dont need to attack me back.
Maybe if people are always attacking you when you post stuff, then maybe you are posting just so people will attack you (kind of like a troll).
Just sayin that if everyone is giving you a hard time, then maybe there is a reason that is happening and i might not be everyone else in the wrong but in fact it could be you pushing peoples buttons.

Is this supposed to be a game thread? Someone may have mentioned it already but ZBo is probably out 8 weeks. We are definitely catching some breaks right now. No Gordon, then no Bogut, Udrih, or Dunleavy and now now ZBo or Arthur.

It is nice to hear. The Grizz should still be a challenge. I hope Burks can keep getting to the line, he's having a good knack of doing that, plus it gives this wretched backcourt something to go on.

Who is going to guard Rudy Gay?

My vote is for Bear. That guy is shifty, you can tell by his eyes.

Assuming Ty stays asleep at the wheel and starts Bell, then Hayward. Not a good cover for him. But maybe that will help motivate Ty to yank Bell. One can hope.

Who is going to guard Rudy Gay?

One can not hope to guard Gay, one can only hope to contain him. These are the kind of challenges that should only make Hayward better.

 

[freakazoid]

No. This is my first.

Lies make baby Jesus cry.

Speights has had a drop in performance the past 4 season the likes of which only CJ Miles can match. Interesting to see if he gets on court.

 

[SojoDave]

I don't care if Burks go 0fer from the field, I want to see him get minutes. I also like when Hayward pulls up on his jumper. I think his pull-up jumper could be his "go to move".

 

[Jazz Spazz]

Definitely another winnable game with out Randolph. I keep expecting us to lay another stinker ala the Denver and LA games but the jazz keep proving me wrong! Here's hoping Howard didn't have a setback last night. He's on the verge of taking Bell's starting spot any day now. Along with Burks, he can actually get to the basket and create problems for the defense.



*update: Z-Bo out 8 weeks

Here's the link for anyone who cares.

The Jazz should pound the ball in the middle, and try to get Gasol into foul trouble.
