Night guys,

If Conley doesn't pull his head out there may be no playoffs to worry about.

I hope all of next week's practices are centered around rebounding.

He has had one good game so far. Even Rubio had good games more often. I’m rooting for Conley but ****...

This isn’t on the refs. We had the lead and we gave them 2nd chances. This is a huge weakness is our team. And it needs fixing. If bogey or anyone else can’t learn to box out, then you have to end the game without them. Boxing out is **** you learn in jr Jazz. No reason for professionals to struggle with something so simple

Effort can help, but rebounding is about size and strength. The Jazz decided to put rebounding low on their priority list by trading Favors and trading for a tiny 34million dollar point guard. Now that's fine if you can win your games through offensive excellence, but currently at 23rd in the league in offense, the plan is off to a bad start.

Some would say that his other claims were a touch self serving.

Sure, but I don't believe he gambled on his own games. He bet on other games based on how he knew the officials' tendencies and behind-the-scenes info (official biases against certain players or teams).

I haven't been more mad at the team than I am right now in years. I can handle a game where the teams shots don't fall or the other team just goes crazy and makes everything.

What I can't handle is a total lack of effort. Giving up 18 offensive rebounds is truly pathetic. It shows a total lack of heart. Boxing out is 100% effort and that's it. Its not a special skill. Nobody on this team is showing effort. And I can't take a team that doesn't want it.

He gambled, the FBI never found any evidence that he fixed games.

The NBA I'm sure didn't send a pile of cash to get that outcome either.

37-54 including 18 offensive rebounds. Can't win games of basketball not rebounding.

Ouch. Ron Boone just very carefully called Conley a liability. Then said the Jazz backcourt needs help.

He’s correct.

 

[JazzyFresh]

I know he won't but I would like to see Quin publicly rip this team. Maybe light a little fire under their asses.

What? It's a greater indictment to the NBA that he didn't gamble on his own games and still raked it in betting on other games. It would be in their interest that the issue be contained to something as simple as one ref fixing games (which it wasn't).

 

[JazzMan4Life]

He went to prison for literally fixing games and then betting on them. Try to keep up.

You mean I knew the guys name and had no idea about him?

I thought he was spread betting and point shaving? Hell i'd cheat like that if I could get away with it. I know for instance of sports in this country who's outcomes are arranged by bookmakers, I have family links this industry.

Mudiay's hamstring loomed much larger in this game than it should've.

Mike Conley was AWFUL...

That step back 13-footer with 2 minutes left in the game was...

What is actually going on?!?!
