I'm at work, but I'm looking at the box score and I'm befuddled. What the hell is going on? Harris only has 13 minutes headed into the 4th? Millsap is 10-15 but has only played 21 minutes? Neither is in foul trouble. And how is Hayward shooting the ball so well but has no rebounds and no assists in a team leading 31 minutes. I'm so confused.

Harris injured....no report yet.
Corbin adjusted the lineup to put Millsap at the 3. He ended the 2nd and started the 3rd absolutely on fire.
Hayward doesn't need to rebound as much playing along side Favors, Millsap, and Jefferson, but is very active - moving and getting open looks.
All of this with Burks and Kanter coming off the bench. It's been fun to watch.
Point guard situation is a little rough.

What the hell is Earl doing?!?

earl watson the tank captain

Watson knows he sucks so bad he just threw the ball out of bounds to get Tinsley in the game.

I don't know what Tinsley is doing different from Watson, but he setps on the floor and suddenly the Jazz remember how to execute on offense.

 

[yamers]

thank you tinsley!

watson thought CORBIN WAS OPEN FOR 3. HOW CAN COACH NOT SEE WHO IS BETTER

 

[The Norm]

That was an incredible drive and pass by Tinsley.

And our dumbass coach will probably play him 0 minutes again when Harris gets healthy.

*sigh*

 

[yamers]

Tinsley is playing amazing...this dick head corbin benched him and we went on a **** streak.

**** YOU CORBIN. YOU BLIND ****. Tinsley isn't god but he's playing so well. Reward the guy for playing well don't bench him. I thought corbin was good until I saw his stupidity on the earl and tinsley issue.

 

[Ellipse]

Tinsley waited too long to pass to Hayward.

 

[The Norm]

Jefferson, you had TWO players wide open under the basket. Wow!
