Jazz @ Pelicans 1/16/20 6 PM MT Going For 11 Straight Wins Game Thread

too much donovan in this game

I feel like we win this if this was the Zion return game. A lot less shots for Slim Reaper.

True.

We also win the game if the refs sent Donovan to the line for whatever Ingram got to the line for. With a couple minutes left in regulation, Donovan was 7-7 and Ingram 9-9. Donovan, although he ran the offense and shot almost all possessions in reg and OT, never shot another one. Ingram shot 11.

They were definitely more motivated to win this one since the Jazz escaped with an uncalled foul last time. They're pretty good, gotta give credit where credit is due.

Royce got cooked by Ingram the entire night, at some point we should have tried someone else on him.

In a playoff matchup, we would have a different plan. We played well enough to win without tipping strategy.

He did but too late. Made Rudy close on Ingram on the pick n roll. That resulted in 3 baskets for Favors under the rim (with Ingles rotating over). Ingram just dissected our defense all game.

I admit I was pretty frustrated but I've cooled. I just think you give Ingles a shot at some point. Would he have still gotten burnt? Most likely but Ingles does have a knack of getting people a little off their game. O'neal has been solid so I'm not calling for the guy to lose minutes or anything but he got flat out abused tonight.

At the end of the day though we had our chances and even got a second chance on a pretty ticky tac foul and just didn't get it done.

Yeah, probably change defenders to give him different looks. But Ingram was unstoppable tonight. Went Durant on us. When his jumper is on, he can shoot over everyone.

they simply face guarded Donovan and denied him the ball to cool him off. and we couldn't even do the same thing with ingram...

We didn't really try tbh

 

[JazzyFresh]

I'm not sure if it's been talked about but Locke said they called the foul on Rudy based off of his knees.

The Stars played three players tonight in Pryor, Bluiett and Collinsworth that might have matched up better with Ingram than what we put out there.

I would've preferred tipping our strategy and getting the win. It's not like we're going to face these guys in the playoffs.

Yeah props to him for sure. To be honest, his passing is what really came through at the end and won them the game. I think he outplayed DM at the end tonight and deserved the win. Awesome game really all the way around.

Conley would have probably cost us this game much earlier. Because he would have taken minutes away from players we needed for defense.

No what we need is a legitimate backup to Rudy. That would have made a difference.
