Gamethread: Jazz v Lakers. 7pm MST.

Lakers are terrible and Jazz are not "good".

The point I was making is that a loss to a garbage team shouldn't be cause for panic and definitely doesn't mean the Jazz might as well tank the rest of the season.
 
this loss is on the players for lack of execution, particularly on one key aspect : FTs. With an 80% success rate instead of 60 this game is a victory. EDIT : of course the team taking care of the ball in the 4th instead of going on a TO rampage could have helped too...

No biggie though, the team is growing and learning, those last 25 games are about Gobert and Favors becoming the starting frontcourt and getting used to each other and their role, about checking if Trey as a 6th man is workeable concept or not, etc...

Alec Burks, out for the season with a shoulder injury, still working on his shot before each game. Fighter.

Jazz win. Lakers do not score more than 65


I missed you Colorado Bulldog... :(
 
Snyder continually said they were weak minded and they chose to blame someone or something instead of reacting by getting tougher.

I didn't see the game. Was there something between one of the players and him? Any bitching? Gordon? Trey?

I doubt it would. The Jazz were beating the contenders and losing to suckers all season. The only spark of hope in me for this is that Quin is the right character with winning obsession to teach these guys the lessons they need. Kick their asses.

I thought Kanter was the scapegoat Cancer?

Only thing I noticed with Hayward last few games is he seems to be getting real pissed AND letting it bother him when he drives to the hole and gets no call.

Seems to be new strategy defending Hayward, rough him up and see if refs blow whistle.

Trey and Rudy had words near the end of the game - they had some sort of miscommunication on an offensive possession.
 
Yet Kanter did? Exum isn't performing or showing flashes of brilliance. Couldn't say the same about hayward, favors, gobert, or even burks

Had some pretty amazing moments against Parker the other night. It's mostly bad from Dante, I get why peoples might be down, but this is what we were told to expect.
 
People need to chill on Dante. In pick up games at a park, anybody can choose to play hero ball and be big dawg but when you are part of an organization with a set heirarchy, you have to wait until you gain trust and are handed the keys. I have no doubt Dante can do more, but we should be encouraged that he is self aware and not the next Lance Stephenson.
