DW amazing with 15 assists and 0 TOs to this point.
Kudos to Sloan for going to Fesenko when Elson did OK but not great. Fes with 6 RBs (3 ORB) in the same # of minutes as FE.
But Jerry, there is REALLY no reason to play Bell and let Hayward rot. Utah is up by 18 or 19. We've heard this song before. Put Hayward in, for Pete's sake. Give him some valuable minutes. This team is deep, but not so deep to sacrifice anyone.
BTW, I love Jefferson's contrast to Boozer's Windy City debut tonight (albeit off an "injury"):
5 points and 2 RBs (and, to his credit, 2 steals) as the Magic make the Bulls disappear by 29 points.

In the paint, Orlando outscores the Bulls (or more aptly, the Matadors) by 20 points.
Another good job by Sloan. Price was terrible in the 1st half of this game and Jerry did not use him in the 2nd half until the game was over.
Great game by Dwill and Jefferson.
That's not true. Price played well but wasn't suited to guarding Dunleavy. For matchup purposes, Price didn't fit this game. Watson is the point when Jerry elects to play Deron off the ball. I can't disagree with that.
Another successful thread. Thank you.
That 3 by Hayward towards the end of the game was possible the prettiest looking shot I've seen all year. Just so pure.
No reason to downplay it - Pacers have a solid squad. Jazz are just a much better team right now.
