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

At least Mudiay is scoring. We go on large cold spell where no one is scoring. You might not love Mudiay for chucking threes and running back in defense make or miss. But, he is creating offense for our team.

I’ve liked Mudiay so far... tonight wasn’t great... he does some good things... he also has 1 or 2 WTF moments. I don’t think he’s a problem... just noticed joe spotting up a lot when he’s in the game.
 
So if Ed was hurt why didn’t we play Bradley at all?
 
joe hardly touches the ball right now... spends too much time in the corner... he plays a lot with Mudiay who the ball seems to stick too.

Sticks to him until he turns it over.

2.8 to's/3.2 assists.

You would hope for a 2 to 1 ratio, and not a 1 and 1.
 
And with the caveat that +/- for a single game generally means nothing.... Royce was -25 in a 1-point game. Next worse for us was Bojan with -11.
 
I'm not sure people should blame Bogdanovic for Barnes' final lay-up. When the ball was passed to Bjelica, Bogdanovic didn't want to commit to rebounding, since that would mean leaving Barnes completely open. Thus, he hesitated for a blink of an eye, while Bjelica was shooting. At that point, he was not close enough to Barnes in order to simply put his body on him, though. Then, Bogdanovic, like everyone else, looked at the basket waiting for the result of Bjelica's shot. Barnes, though, antecipated that it could be a miss and run hard towards the basket. When Bogdanovic reacted to the missed shot, it was too late. At first sight, the play looks bad for Bogdanovic, but I think it would have been ill-advised to try to crash the board while leaving Barnes wide-open on the top of the key. Kudos for Barnes for making a great read and great play, though.

Not sure if our shooting has improved from last year. Our offense is awful to watch.

but I do know our toughness and rebounding is worse.

Last year’s team would’ve blown these guys out.
What? We have the same record so last year so far. We had a bad loss to crappy Memphis last year. After this that team went on a 4 game losing streak. That team has a losing record into January.
