Jazz - Nuggets: Round 1

Next season is the season of good fortune, right? I mean we couldn't have been more unlucky with the way everything went this season. So the universe is just saving all good fortune to be used in an epic run next year I'm assuming

Maybe I’m a hater, but Conley’s absence is having very little impact on how I view this series. As long as he is replaced by a more capable perimeter defender, then the impact could be fairly small.

It hurts from a depth perspective. We'll now have to play Mudiay 20+ minutes. Maybe even NWG and JWF. Playoff teams usually only go 7-8 players deep.

Yeah I’m not saying it doesn’t hurt at all. But I’d rather Joe use more possessions anyway, so he steps up his usage rate. Our success this year is correlated with Joe using more possessions and Mike using less as a primary ball handler. Then we play Oni to help with perimeter defense.

This isn’t good news, but I’m not much more worried than I was already.
 
If we are hitting our threes we won't miss Conley

I'd be surprised if the first sub isn't Niang for Joe - but I hope Q spices it up

I can't fault Conley for that. This is a decision you make 100 out of 100 times... but it's still super frustrating for the fans....

From our acquisitions in last off-season we will get the following contributions for the playoffs:
1. Bogdanovic - 0
2. Conley - 0 for the first 3 games
3. Ed Davis - 0
4. Jeff Green - 0
5. Mudiay ... hopefully not negative contribution

Kinda the story of Mountain Mike... everything lined up on paper and didn’t work out... planned the baby for August which should be perfect and turns out it was the worst possible time. Sigh.

I think another underrated way it could hurt us is that it gives Denver a more confident mentality. Maybe even makes our team lose a bit of confidence.

Can't remember if I already posted this and don't want to search the thread but I think we went 19-2 for a stretch without Conley earlier and mudiay was pretty great. (I think I already did post this but whatever, deal with it jagoffs)
