Jazz throttle the Spurs at their place game thread

I’m not sure if he can really help us honestly. Have there been any games where he’s started/played big mins and we wouldn’t have won had Mudiay/Clarkson been given his mins? I’m at the point now where I seriously wonder if we’d miss him if he and Mudiay switched roles.

Perhaps what bothers me the most is going from playing a guy over 20 mins a game to playing him 0, nada, adios. If I were Mudiay I would want out without a doubt.
 
I missed it, but what happened with Donovan Mitchell throwing up a wild layup that pretty much hit the bottom of the backboard near the end there?

Yeah I’m not sure. I do think if teams go five out we should bring in Mudiay... would be nice to have one big forward to anchor that unit as a 5, but they gonna score anyway... I’d rather have Mudiay get some burn. Can at least help more on the offensive end.

bojan, conley, niang, bradley, clarkson.

that is 5 out of your current 9-men rotation that are mediocre-horrendous level of defenders. it's simply too much ground for rudy, royce joe and donovan to cover. and even for joe/DM, i'd call them average defenders too given the ball-handling load that they have to carry that really hurt their concentration/energy on D.

Im fairly sure he got hit... our stellar broadcast team gave us the worst replay angle ever so we may never know.
 


One of the things that I really wish Quin would do is better identify bad matchups before they become a problem.

Putting Bradley in a position to defend a five out offense is a recipe for disaster.

i saw him out of control and throwing that nonsense up hoping to be bailed out by the refs.

Joe has had some bad nights recently. Royce is good but has some limitations.

Niang has actually done a much better job staying in front of guys and competing... he still gets his *** kicked but just less.

no one on the staff foresaw that?

Yeah. It's an obvious hole. While we still have Rudy, last year we had more defenders we could throw at scoring threats. Not to mention better rim protection with Favors.

We probably win this game if we have favors. We’d be set if we had favors instead of Conley.
