Sure we can match up size wise but they have steph and klay. We don't. That's why their lineup works.
And Draymond? And Bogut a also great passing big and Barnes and Iggy who all can pass or attack.

I think Steph and klay make those guys what they areAnd Draymond? And Bogut a also great passing big and Barnes and Iggy who all can pass or attack.

So the way to beat GS's death line-up is to attempt to put out a similar style line-up, but clearly not as good? Makes sense

Aaand that's pretty much the thread.
2 years ago before GS was champions ,Curry was 26 and Green and Thompson were 24,meaning they were young veterans....Now Jazz are entering that stage ,Hayward is 26,Favors 24,Gobert 23,Hood 23,Exum close to 21,Burks 24 and Lyles close to 21 too.....Unless some Jazz fans are so down on these players that they think they won't ever become good then I can see where your coming from BUT I don't ride that boat !! Jazz were picked last year to become the top up and coming team because of their youth and great defense. Of course we know injuries derailed those expectations.
OKC showed length does bother GS and Jazz minus Exum more than held their own against GS at their home court,THEY didn't play in AWE.Kind of mind boggling some fans have such a poor view of this Jazz team.Jazz have 7 keepers ,all 1st round draft choices.
Haywood
Dante Exum (PG) 6'6" vs. Steph Curry (PG) 6'3"
Rodney Hood(SG) 6'8" vs Klay Thompson (SG)6'7"
Alec Burks (SG) 6'6" vs Andre Igoudala (SG)6'6"
Gordon Haywood (PF)6'8" vs Harrison Barnes (PF)6'8"
Trey Lyles (C) 6'10" vs Draymond Green (C)6'7"
Jazz don't have the Dubs rep but they look like they will be able hungry to play against the Dubs death lineup.Jazz will have so much flexibility next year .
I agree about the klay and Steph part (it's obvious to me that the jazz need their best player to be better than anyone they currently have).tHING is Curry and Klay are each better then any single Jazz player. Jazz do not have anyone on those 2 level. They do not have a big guy with fire like Green. Favors is awfully passive of a personality.
