GAME THREAD - Lazy Sunday Version: Jazz at Hawks 11/15/2015 6pm EST

The road trip has been tough. But it's time for the team to rally, get our best team on the floor and show why we're playoff bound. The Hawks are another top tier team in the East and this road win will send a message - those close games with top notch teams is just a precursor to our onward and upward trend. Plus Snyder wants to show his old boss who's boss.

For those of you long time Jazz fans it's ten years ago this season when our visit to the Hawks led to this oh so fun and memorable game:

Time to pull out your favorite beverage, lay back the recliner and watch some Sabbath hoops. Here's to a little Lazy Sunday action:

Want to get familiar with what the Hawks fans are thinking? . . . enjoy the Hawks fan forum for some kicks:

A particular quote that is fun in light of our front line if Gobert plays with Favors:

"This team is inferior to last years team.

I'm kind of bored with these guys.... They play like they're bored, and I'm bored with watching them play.

Anyone else tired of watching big men go off on Al and Millsap? Kelly Olynyk had 15 points in only 17 minutes and Amir Johnson had 19/8/4. Splitter is a useless sack of ****. Waste of money... He is a big clod without Duncan to make him look decent."

Get ready for the Block Brothers to marinade themselves in the joy of owning the paint - [crosses fingers].

Their game thread not up yet ... will be interesting to see what they're thinking about us particularly.
 
Just a reminder, some people wanted to trade Favors for Millsap in the offseason. :rolleyes:

Hawks started the season on fire, but have lost 2 out of the last three. If Gobert is playing, then we have a good chance, since they don't have anyone to guard our bigs. They're 9th in 3pt attempt rate and 12th in 3pt%, so not as devastating from behind the arc as they were last year (but still good). That's promising since the Jazz are 22nd in opponent 3pt%.

If Gobert is playing, I'm putting $50 on the Jazz.

That seems crazy now.

As another reminder, some people wanted to dump Al Jefferson and keep Milsap to play with Favors. Dennis Lindsey thought it was a better plan to let Milsap walk for nothing in order to develop Kanter into trade bait for Tibor Pleiss.

Haha.. hindsight is such a wonderful thing isn't it???


Imagine Gobert/Favors/Millsap lineup... Wow..
