Game Thread - Jazz @ Kings - 8:00 PM MST

I think Exum coming back is soon going to push Mudiay deeper into the rotation.

Lakers went big against the jazz too.

Also, If Mitchell/Conley can't keep DeAron Fox out of the lane how are they going to win in the west? Harden Westbrook Lillard McCollum

Our savior Dante Exum is the perimeter defender the jazz need

Sure would be nice to have a fast tall guard to help defend the likes of Fox

Big athletic off the dribble players is the weakness of the Jazz defense.

Totally agree. I get that people are praising him because he's had moments. But you can tell why the Nuggets gave up on him and why he's on the minimum. He does the same stuff Burks did that made Quin pissed.

For any team really

i'd be way more mad at the refs (and they were *****) if we played anything close to reasonable basketball at close to the entirety of the first half, or if we had decently boxed out (throughout the game, or at least on that kings last posession), or simply did better than 5 of 10 at the ft line on the last quarter

We are lacking something, I think Ed Davis is too one dimensional

I feel like the Jazz knew that though. I haven't even seen any of the rebounding chops. I think Quin is asking him to do more than he usually does and he's playing confused.

The only thing I don't understand is why the hell Mitchell insisted on staying behind the line and winding down the clock for a three when all we needed was a two. Why not drive the lane with the option to oop to Gobert if the defense collapsed instead of that cluster fudge?!!!

We need another beast rebounder

Love Bogie but no clue what he was doing on that last play - was basically a spectator.

You have to know all 4 players are crashing the board. You gotta put a body on someone.

Also that loose ball foul after Mitchell's go ahead layup was big (and a peculiar call) - otherwise Jazz had a foul to give. Could have forced Sac to re-set.
