Jazz game tonight yada yada yada EXUM to Start!!

[Stifle Tower]

Ingles with a near triple-double. PGOTF?
Millsap had a decent showing. Some nice assists. He just can't shoot.

Anyone wonder why Novak isn't getting PT? I don't. I doubt he could even guard one of us.

Totally get what you're saying, to be fair it's not your normal ref job:
Starting salary of $150k ($550k for vets) and 3 mos of the year off, being that close. Not the worst gig to have.

the job is not that hard, the hardest part is to make it to the nba

no one retires, you basically wait for someone to die to get a job there

Exum had a heck of a line....0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 13. He is learning from Trey how to jack up shots and not do much else.

Do you watch the Jazz play defense at all ,did you see Indiana Pg's or Dante's assignment blowing by him like everybody does against Burke

Thank goodness he is doing something/anything else out there, other than standing behind the 3pt line bombing away.

Serious? The past 3 years have been predictable. We go down 16 years before and we never come back. This team has fight and desire. Sure they don't pull them all out. But they are the 3rd youngest team in the NBA. These games show a very bright future for me.

3rd youngest age wise. In terms of total NBA games played, the Jazz have played the fewest combined.
It says something that we fought back. Just don't have the personnel to compete. Our PG play has really sucked this year. Too lazy to look it up, but probably the worst in the league. Dante needs to grow a pair.

Speaking of Novak, has he hit a 3 this season? I think I've seen him shoot about 4 times. All misses.

I dont want to sit through further delays to the flow of the game. You see how long it takes them to decide even the most obvious out of bounds calls over replay? Imagine how long it would take to call something as subjective as fouls over replay? No thanks. Just play teh game and don't blame refs for every loss. They weren't even that bad this game. They have been worse in past games.

The games are often fixed. If you have a chance to overturn a few bad calls that is well worth it. Look at football. Yes the replay is slow. MANY games have been saved due to it.

I'd rather have the occasional bad call than challenges. It usually evens out over the course of a season, it's not like we never get bad calls in our favor. The refs do a good job for the most part. Being a basketball ref isn't an easy job.

Utah would have a championship if they had replay challenges back then. There's really no good argument against each team having a couple. If you're afraid it will draw the game out too much, there's a simple solution. Just turn off the tv half-way through the 4th quarter. Problem solved.

 

[Hotdog]

I'm for a couple challenges too. I'd rather see the game get called correctly. I'm not too worried about the few extra minutes it will cost.

The challenges would probably only come late in the game when it slows down anyways, if you limit how many (like 2).
