pretty upsetting about that game is tgat we are on a different level compared to the scrubs and they had there best players not suited.
To me its a bit concerning, are we a finals team or are we dreamers

We're better than we've shown, ill leave it at that

Exum's outside shot is painful to watch.

This is a game we needed. All hail Ingles. The first unit did well. The 2nd not so much. The garbage times guys pukeee.

I reviewed the highlights. We improved a little, but a lot of it was Memphis sucking. We would have got destroyed by the Lakers if we had to play them agian.

On a random call out, looks like Mudiay played well. Looked like he was trying not to be a ballhog and make the right plays.

I've always wanted him to succeed since he has some physical tools that could make him a great player, but his shot is something he could have worked on even while he was injured.

That and the fact that Snyder doesn't like him, is why I'm pretty much giving up on him. No point in being hopeful for something with such low probability of working out. If it miraculously works out then so be it, but I'm not holding my breath anymore.

Tbh I'd have much rather kept Grayson Allen this past off season than Exum. At least he could get on the court.

His name on our roster is more painful

Sigh. It’s like 2015 all over again

I remember jerry sloan once answered a question about why a particular young guy wasn't playing. Jerry said all the right things about being ready, staying in shape, competing in practice and so on. Then he said something that wasn't coach speak. Jerry said, "I don't want to put a guy out there and have him get embarrassed."

I have often reflected upon Jerry's words as I watched several young Jazz players struggle...Dante in particular.

Some noteworthy stats-

Only 3 Grizzlies were positive +/- Grayson was +7 in 26 minutes.

Joe Ingles led the Jazz with +23. Mitchell had the smallest + of all the starters at +6.

Jazz had 22 turnovers. Mitchell said the team needs to do a better job of protecting the ball. Mitchell had 7 TOs. Dante had 1, which is like 9 TOs per 36 . dante is averaging 4 TOs per 36 this season.
