Jazz at Raptors Game Thread

MT: rubio scoring early just means he's gonna get cocky
str8line: Donovan's 3 pt shot is in the gutter.
WhiskyPriest: nba league pass seems to be working now
yamers: yeah ingles sequence passing the open shot was classic ingles
MVP: Rubio had nice pass to Gobert as well. besides one stupid turnover he is doing ok today
MVP: why this nba all star thing is all messed up? I get captain thing but why they are not picking east vs west?
Rubashov: right league pass is on and rolling, streaming it to the tellie perfect
str8line: That Ingles Favors roll is awesome
WhiskyPriest: Can I go on record saying I cannot stand the NBA all-star game
WhiskyPriest: such a waste of time
str8line: Donovan has had the ball picked too much lately.
str8line: We suck.
Saint: rubio just becoming a scapegoat
MVP: So far so good
str8line: The effort has been lacking.
str8line: And yes Rubio has been a bit of a scapegoat.
MT: Ingles is Michael Jordan'ing them
Hekate: nice move
MVP: we are up by 8 and you guys still bitching about Rubio lol?
Rubashov: joe having a big australia day
WhiskyPriest: favors and rubio are playing tonight
MVP: Notice how as soon as Rudy went out offense started clicking
str8line: I can't wait to blow up this team.
yamers: is drake inside the raptors outfit?

MVP: we need to to something about Rudy, Rubio and Favors together
MVP: it just does not work
str8line: I get the sense that the passion is gone for Donovan because he knows we suck.
MVP: lol yamers, for sure not.
str8line: He needs fresh mojo.
Ellipse: A lot (most?) bounce passes into the bigs have no chance of being completed. You wonder what the passer was thinking?
yamers: str8line wtf
str8line: He's in on the tank
MT: wtf MVP
MT: season is a disaster, we have no spacing and it's a huge problem
MT: but lay off on Rubio cuz we're up 8 against the Raptors ;/
str8line: Favors playing for money, nothing more.
MVP: maybe he is figuring it out lol
Saint: you are just making rubio a scapegoat
MT: it's not so much rubio
MVP: Problem is Favors and Gobert together
MT: it's the philosophy of trying to win in a pace and space league with a point guard that can't shoot and two bigs that are non-perimeter threats
MT: so on a roster like this
MVP: unless Rudy starts shooting midrange jumpers it won't work
MT: Rubio is not gonna work
MVP: +10
Saint: Favors isnt on the roster long term

MT: the other problem is
MT: I'd rather we develop Mitchell and Exum as the primary ball-handlers
Saint: rubio isnt the problem
MT: which would relegate Rubio to off-ball duties
MT: which is stupid because he can't shoot
MVP: you guys still have hope in Exum... lol
str8line: Neto plays hard always.
MT: exum is a bust
MT: we all know that
MVP: maybe he can be like Chalmers to Wade...
MT: but I'd still take him over Rubio
MVP: to Mitchell
str8line: Exum gonna be good.
Hekate: Neto sacrificed his lay-ups for 3pt shooting
WhiskyPriest: An advantage with Exum is that he is a TALL PG. Which is needed since Donovan is only 6'3 (I know he has a long wingspan, but still.)
MT: idk
Hekate: Poeltl looks *****
MVP: tall means **** if you can't shoot or handle the ball.
MT: wingspan is so much more important than height
str8line: What will their nickname be? The Dynamic Duo?
MT: look at george hill
WhiskyPriest: what is Exum's wingspan?
MVP: Bust and the Star
str8line: Ha!
MT: hill is shorter than mitchell and has been a great defender his whole career in large part because of his wingspan
Jazzta: Just tuned in, the Raptors uniform looks pretty tight
str8line: Exum will avg. 14 next year.
ONE: Damn, Toronto's new uniform is FIRE
ONE: GOTTA LOVE THAT
Hekate: it sucks
ONE: Gold over black
ONE: nothing beats it
Hekate: terribly hideous
MVP: str8lite II bet you pack of canadian beer he won't
ONE: And the arrow & North? Awesome
MT: nah i'm a fan of these jerseys
MT: pretty slick
Saint: this **** is so annoying, none of these streams are working for me
Jazzta: I dig em
ONE: Yah

ONE: Hekate has we weird taste...
ONE: sorry man
str8line: Welcome in cursive is 70's bingo parlor cheese.
MVP: sent you want cy
MVP: one
str8line: Welcome Toronto.
str8line: WTF is that?
Hekate: I love gold and black but these look off
ONE: It's called the City Uniform
ONE: so I guess they're welcoming you to their City
str8line: Funny MVP I was thinking of a bet.
WhiskyPriest: I looked it up. Exum's wingspan is 81.5 inches. I thought he had a longer wingspan... oh well.
Saint: its not the streams, its on my end
ONE: Pants looks off though
ONE: The left side
Ellipse: Their new floor looks pretty good.
ONE: looks like when you go to the toilet at the mall and got some tissue paper stuck to your pants as u walk out
Saint: Yeah, I think Rubio has a 6'8 wingspan
ONE: Should have just stuck with all black
str8line: Ok MVP Canadian beer. I'm gonna enjoy that.
ONE: and let the jersey stand out
MVP: what are you sending me?
yamers: gonads
MT: the jazz are big on wingspan
MVP: since you are 100% going to lose it
ONE: Also that's REAL gold
str8line: Molson Canadian bitch.
MVP: nah Molson sucks
rare144: we must atone for our rubio criticism
rare144: yamers you first
ONE: Gobert means business
ONE: Maybe he read the 'trade Gobert' thread on Jazzfanz today
WhiskyPriest: Rudy is running better tonight.
MT: you guys made a trade Gobert thread?
yamers: rudy needs to bring in the best hands trainer
Saint: sometimes i really dont understand why rudy cant just rise up and get a hook shot off
Rubashov: rudy just got hacked
ONE: well.. not trade Gobert exactly, but gauging his trade value
Rubashov: One love im ashamed of you
Catchall: Burks looks really good handling the ball

ONE: He needs that guy that teaches Jazzfanz on 'Bring it On'
ONE: Jazz Hands
ONE: not Jazzfanz
Rubashov: mind you no more so than normal
str8line: What's a good Canadian beer these days that's popular?
Saint: Burks has been playing well lately
ONE: I dudn't start the thread Rub
Rubashov: Fosters
Saint: surprised he hasnt gotten more minutes
str8line: Molson Golden used to bee tasty
MVP: Moosehead
Rubashov: you're a mod you could have deleted it
MVP: Sleeman
MVP: Aleksander Keith
ONE: LOL.. it's not a dictatorship
MVP: Those would be more popular
Rubashov: will be when im in charge...
str8line: Wow, we used to drink that. I grew up in Detroit and we had a lot of Canadian beers
Rubashov: Dont think ive ever had a canadian beer
MVP: str8line what are you going to do if Exum is not with the Jazz next season?
MT: every now and then Burks makes an incredible play that makes you wonder why he doesn't play more
MT: then on the next play he tries to drive on 4 defenders and loses the ball and you're like "Oh, that's why"
WhiskyPriest: How much do you think Neto is going to make next year? He is having a sneaky good year.
Saint: has Burks ever passed to Rudy on the roll?
yamers: tank captain back
Catchall: smart drive by Rubio
str8line: You wanna bet Exum is with us?
Saint: like im sure he has
Saint: but it seems like Burks never passes to Rudy
str8line: 2nd sixer?
ONE: You can glue cuts now?
ONE: wow
ONE: i'm impressed
Saint: thats what medical spray is
str8line: Love Don's bullet passes
MT: got dayumn Royce
Saint: like spray on bandaids
Saint: are just glue

Catchall: best break I've seen this year
Hekate: Royce doe
Saint: Royce is another player who would help RUbi look better
str8line: That dunk.
yamers: royce oneal should have dunked that then the ron artest chest pound and tried to KO whoever was behind em
Saint: athletes who actaully run the floor
yamers: the ron artest elbow
yamers: https://media0.giphy.com/media/yEZMznoPiKhgc/giphy.gif?cid=8e2f2bd95a6bd2b07943584451742f17" alt="" style="width:179px" />
Hekate: that's a Minny Rubio pass
Jazzta: This
ONE: O'Neal has the name of a HOF and the number of a HOF
MT: that's our big 3
Saint: I looked it up
MT: Gobert, Mitchell, O'Neal
Saint: Rudy hasnt scored on a pass from Burks all year
WhiskyPriest: Rubio is playing nice tonight.
Hekate: does it say how many passes?
str8line: LOL that Artest elbow.
Saint: 1.1 per game
Hekate: that's more than what I would guess
Saint: but I think that is passes that lead directly to a FGA? im not usre
Saint: sure*
yamers: canadians are awful
Saint: its the nba.com tracking stast on passing
Ellipse: Well, since Burks rarely passes once he has moved inside the arc, I'm not surprised he's never assisted Rudy on a bucket.
yamers: met a lot oif canadians when i lived abroad
ONE: Suprised no other team has used Black and Gold as the colour combo
ONE: it's FIRE
yamers: def the bellends of the world
str8line: I like B.C. Canadians.
Hekate: yeah probably
MT: yea black and gold is awesome
yamers: look at this guy
yamers: shapalov
yamers: holly f
MT: new orleans saints
ONE: Yeah but not the NBA
ONE: I meant no other NBA teams
MT: yea i know
ONE: Jazz could have used it

MT: i was just gonna say i've always loved the saints colors
ONE: the gold represents the Saxophone perfectly
ONE: Saxophone = Jazz = Gold
Saint: i just dont like seeing possessions like that from joe
MT: jazz would rather be the phoenix suns for their city uniforms
ONE: And black is naturally the colour of music notes
ONE: Haha
ONE: yeah
ONE: Might as well change team name to Sun Rays
ONE: the Utah Sun Rays
ONE: LOL
ONE: How many TO has Ingles had?
yamers: favors is rlly not boxing otu any1
WhiskyPriest: Didnt Lowry destroy us last time we played them?
Saint: i hate the Favors/Johnson combo
Jazzta: Lol ingles
yamers: mitchel keeps getting hacked
MT: yea
yamers: it's frustrating
Jazzta: what was that?
MT: favors/johnson is... not good
WhiskyPriest: johnson is done. I haven't seen him sprint all year.
WhiskyPriest: he still has some old man moves, but he doesnt defend at all anymore.

yamers: i think playing with rubio just sucks ****
yamers: rubio
yamers: rubio's **** show offensive game creates open looks for himself, but it allows the other team to the focus in on mitchel
ONE: Surpised Rubio didn't pass that to Mitchell
WhiskyPriest: Rubio hustles every game. I really wish he could shoot.
ONE: he could have dunked it
yamers: i feel like mitchel is getting held
yamers: and hit a lot
Saint: Gobert lets refs affect his game too much
yamers: and the refs do nothing about it
MT: yea
MT: Gobert gets tilted in a Cousins-esque way when the calls don't go his way
latin: i like that Quin is always trying to teach something. He used to talk to Exum at every opportunity. he does the same with DM
yamers: jonas got killed
Saint: jonas how do you get beat off the dribble that bad by jonas?
MT: lmao
MT: i swear the way he positioned himself it looked like jerebko forgot where the basket was
Saint: i just dont know why anyone is closing out that hard on a jonas 3
yamers: https://media1.giphy.com/media/AjYsTtVxEEBPO/giphy.gif?cid=8e2f2bd95a6bd6186333614249a6d4b4" alt="" style="width:179px" />

Hekate: what a flop
Saint: jonas setting a moving screen right after ta call
devin_c: is this roller derby or a basketball game
Ellipse: I don't know, my thinking is that Jerebko should stick to shooting 3s.
MT: rudy has to be mentally tougher than this
yamers: https://media0.giphy.com/media/yoJC2GJsij7CZUzf8c/giphy.gif?cid=8e2f2bd95a6bd6667368746e771216a5" alt="" style="width:179px" />
Saint: the refs are boning them tho
MT: sort of
MT: that derozan flop was pretty stupid
MT: I'm not a physics expert, but I'm pretty sure derozan shouldn't be going flying in a totally different direction after running into Rudy
rare144: i foresee a rubio stunner at the buzzer
rare144: it's gonna rain jazz notes

MT: officiating was pretty garbage
Rubashov: so does TJ

Eminence: Dang, rushed the poor kid, TJ is cold blooded though
Zombie: I wasn't even bein like that bro
Hekate: should have let her choose where to shoot from
Hekate: top of the arc wasn't her spot
Zombie: You need to get your head right if that's what you thinking
Rubashov: sure it wasn't...
