GM #9: 11/12/2014 - Utah Jazz(3-5) @ Atlanta Hawks(3-3) [5.30 PM MDT, 7.30 PM ET and 1.30 AM CET]

I can't wait to see the Booker-Millsap matchup tbh

Will Booker 'outmillsap' Millsap or will Millsap 'outbooker' Booker, I'm confused

Mike Scott also won't play.

Scott and Carroll are the Hawks 2nd and 3rd best 3pt shooters thus far.

Atlanta is the #1 3pt shooting team in %, though with those 2 out Korver is the only 3pt shooter on the team shooting over 32%. You really only have to guard Korver on the perimeter. Sag off every wing/guard and give respectable closeouts to Antic/Millsap.

sagging off of schroder = bad idea

Favors would have sent that weak **** back to Germany.

I like these early starts where I can watch it in peace a pub.

Korver is shooting 36% from 2pt range. Guard him beyond the arc, and force him into the 2pt shots.
I like the idea of having Favors and Gobert out there guarding Sap and Horford because they have some defensive range and can mess up the mid range and outside shots, and they are long. Maybe they can tip rebounding in the Jazz favor tonight as long as they don't get into foul trouble.

Hayward on Korver most of the night, or all night. Let Thabo shoot.

If Carroll is out that is huge, he has an impact in all areas of their play.

If Carroll is out I say the Jazz win. If he plays it's 50/50 depending on how he can move with the injury.

I also predict we get another good game from Favors as to pts, rebs, and blocks.

Favors would have sent that weak **** back to Germany.

But not Duncan because he's too old and slow?
Duncan is still mr Fundamental. Hard to tell if Silver Spoons made a good play, or Duncan lost 2 steps in his old age.

For some reason I feel like Quin might run some more pick and rolls and allow Trey to dribble the ball more than usual in the first quarter to get his confidence back. I just have a gut feeling that today's game is the day Trey breaks out of his slump. Might not break the slump permanently, but he'll have a good game.

I am pretty sure Quinn's plays start a set that flowing options. Calling a play for Trey specifically isn't how the offense works. But I hope that Trey finds a way to break out.

But Teague is a tough matchup for Trey. At least they don't have great rim protection.

Honestly....

It's time for Burke to step up and have a good game... Srsly it's not like these teams have blackmail stuff on him, he shouldn't be playing this bad...

And Burks, while playing solid, is capable of much more... I'm looking for him to stand out tonight and add some quality along side Hayward!!!

They have pictures of Trey fully clothed.

I just have a gut feeling that today's game is the day Trey breaks out of his slump. Might not break the slump permanently, but he'll have a good game.

Well, we thought that about Indiana with Trey going up against Donald Sloan and a waiver-wire PG. Can't get much easier than that. Now, if Trey goes 4-12 and 1-3 on his 3's, we'd consider that breaking out of his slump.

 

[Revolution 9]

Can't wait to watch Dennis and Trey battle it out.

We're on MST time now. No longer MDT. Just sayin

 

[NAOS]

I'm sure there's at least a couple of people on this board who are thrilled that the Hawks will be without Carroll and Scott tonight, right?

Raise your hands, guis.
