Remember when we used to be a good 3rd quarter team?

Quin has no faith in Dok.

Gobert has to play every minute or the Jazz fall to crap.

Jokic out lead gone for Denver. Gobert out lead gone for Jazz. Such a weird game.

Rudy Gay at the 5 has coughed up our lead. It's just layups, put-backs and and-1s for Denver. Jazz might do better with Azubuike, tbh.

Can't blame the Jazz. They haven't practiced with Gay at the five, yet.

Why the hell did Donovan just leave his guy wide open in the corner? 3 jazz guys in the middle already. We got lucky his guy missed. Stupid play.

Notice how the Nuggets didn't take Jokic off the floor at all in the 3rd quarter.

He has been terrible on defense the whole game outside of one or two highlight moments.

Pretty evenly matched game. We should have the advantage in the fourth where they are on a b2b.

Jazz need to extend the lead with Gobert on the floor till Jokic comes back or need to match their minutes.

Keep Gobert in the rest of the game to pressure them to leave Jokic in. He’ll be totally gassed by the end if he pushes near 40 minutes on a back to back. Then again, his game isn’t really predicated on needing a lot of physical effort. Just capitalize with him on defense.

Great start to the 4th quarter. I loved the move by Paschall to get the and-1.
