Jazz vs. Charlotte Whorenets Saturday 12/21 3:00 PM game time

He just needs to not average 50 fouls per 36 min.

Eh. Some of his fouls tonight weren't even fouls. The refs were just bad tonight. He only averages 6.1 fouls per 36 on the season. That's not bad for a bench player.

Same takeaways as the last few weeks.

- Our top 6 players are great. When we have any combination of Conley/Mitchell/Oneale/Bogdanovic/Ingles/Gobert on the floor we are as good as we expected we would be.

- Bradley needs to play over Davis. He's a better system fit. Better screener, better finisher around the rim, better hands. Quin finally played him over Davis in the second half and here's to hoping the obvious finally worked it's way into Quin's head.

- Niang does not belong on the floor. 12 minutes, 2 rebounds, 0 assists, 0 steals, 0 blocks, 0 deflections, 1 turnover, -10. It's the same thing every game. The guy is a great shooter but he can't do anything else. Next to Green the lack of versatility kills us because Green isn't all that versatile either.

I thought effort and energy in the second half was amazing. Great job by Mitchell and the other starts. Fun game to watch.

Rudy is just dominating.

Rudy had a double-double in the first quarter.

It's great to see Joe back with the starters and playing great, but we can't keep playing him this many minutes without wearing him down. He played 39 minutes tonight and hasn't played less than 34 in the last 6 games. Unfortunately we may not have a choice until Conley gets back. I'm also worried about how many Rudy's playing.

ed davis is a help defender, not a defensive anchor. he will continue to play like garbage if we keep playing him that way

This is why the idea of a bench frontcourt of Bradley/Davis/Green is something I've brought up in the past. I know that it goes away from the "modern NBA game". I know it goes against the spacing Quin is looking for. But I feel like with Bradley at center and Davis at power forward you're going to get the most out of Davis. He'd be more free to provide help D. He'd have an easier time crashing the boards because he isn't the only rebounder in the frontcourt like he is when he's next to Green/Niang. He'd be more of a secondary/offball screener.

And if you think about it yeah we lose spacing with that bench unit. But that bench unit would also murder opposing benches on the offensive and defensive glass, should get easy buckets at the rim, and should be very very solid defensively especially at the rim.

As opposed to the current bench unit that doesn't have any strengths.
