Game Thread: Clippers @ Jazz, 7 p.m.

[Revolution 9]

"Rookies Alec Burks added 11 points and six rebounds, and Enes Kanter had 10 points and five rebounds for Utah. However, it was second-year pro Jeremy Evans who brought the crowd to its feet, with four dunks—three on alley-oops."

 

[Revolution 9]

Well considering that we don't have Favors tonight, No. If Sap or Al get into foul trouble this game could turn ugly fast.

so true...

Hayward?

You can tell the kid is working his butt off out there on the court. But his shot's just not falling.

Hayward?

Yeah, he didn't hit a FG but he did get 3 from the line. So I should amend that to everyone who suited up scored.

Over the last decade, I have never seen our defence this good. We seem to be able to do the things that the good teams always did agst us. I am not a Jerry, dwill, a k47, etc hater, but this group is defending the pick and roll etc very well.

 

[Revolution 9]

It's cute to see so many of you worried about Hayward. He's just in a little soph funk. If Bell and Harris can turn it around, Hay will be fine.

nice win.

Did Reggie Evans welcome him to the NBA in that Reggie Evans kind of way?

if u mean pushing,pulling,elbowing? yes.If the refs would call those fouls of Reggie's against Kanter,he would avarage 453 Fouls in P48

Burks is so unusual to watch. He does things only star players can do, but you can't help but worry that he's not going to get it. He runs breaks badly, he plays aggressively to a fault, he takes dumb shots. On the flips side, he makes plays, gets to the line, and he's productive. I'm really not sure how you reign in a guy like Burks.

Burks was the only option on a very bad Colorado team. This is probably the only way he knows how to play. Not too worried about it really. Comes with time.

Yea Reggie was physical but I didn't see Kanter backing down. Kid is tough.

Hayward stunk, but he did finally have a stop and pop in the 3rd which got me excited. I get his deferring to Al and Sap. But he still leaves too many shots on the floor.

LOL - that's the shot that got him benched for the rest of the game.
