Our guys got tired and tentative in the fourth. My heart can't take this.

Conley was a magician out there. Rudy dominated. Faves got it done. Ingles was back to being Ingles. Great game for the most part from the Jazz. Fun game except for the nail-biting end.

Conley and Gobert carrying us.

Don't forget Favors

That was 10 seconds in the paint by Ibaka.

K the refs are letting bigs do this an absurd amount of the time.., they play 15 feet off Rudy as like 4 guys work around the pick for 12 seconds... I have no idea WTF is going on.

Favors was great tonight. He stepped up in a major way after Gobert got his 4th foul early in the 3rd quarter. Conley also played amazing despite allegedly being short, old, and a bad fit on the team

My thoughts on the good exactly.

2021 Conley is what we thought 2020 Conley would be and 2021 Bogey is what 2020 Conley was.

And DM looks like rookie DM.

Ingles, Conley, Favors, and Gobert were all very good tonight. Honestly, these last 4 games have felt like a battle against how far Bogey and Mitchell can drag us down.

Phoenix beat Denver in Denver on the second game of a back-to-back tonight.

It isn’t just missing shots. They both look like they attended the AB “school for stopping the ball and taking two worthless dribbles”.

I’m not sure what the game plan is but double Leonard from the strong side to leave knock down three point shooters wide *** open hopefully wasn’t it. Bogie and Don both fouled Batum on threes that were basically guaranteed misses. I don’t know what is going on but it needs to stop.

Their cakes are baking nicely. Still, not overly worried about them.

Yeah, I don't think his shooting was the bad part tonight. It was the constant dribbling and hijacking of the offense...which often led to him having to take impossible shots. Every time he touched the ball in the 4th we got taken late into the clock because he wanted to dribble for so long. There were also several times where he had the advantage or a decent mismatch and just dribbled out of it for no reason.

This all goes without mentioning his 2nd quarter turnover barrage that lost the first initial big lead. I like Don, but he's got to have some of the worst decision making in the league right now.
