Game Thread Jun 10, 2021 08:00PM MT: Jazz vs. Clippers - Game 2

[infection]

I think game 3 is the perfect time to (continue to) sit Conley and part of me kinda wants the Jazz to sit Donovan too. I think Conley is back for game 4 (and hopefully beyond).

I think in the event that we sat both Conley and Donovan, we could possibly steal that as a huge trap game.

My prediction is that the jazz lose game 3 and then win game 4 and 5

While it would be great to win out, I have been thinking as of now that this is the most likely scenario.

I'll be happy with a split if it comes to it.

This is great news. I think he would have been more effective against us than Cousins or Zubac have been.

It's also great news because it kind of seems like he looked at the series and was like, "well I guess the season is over, no need to hold off on the back surgery."

Yeah he was the only guy that gives them stretch and rim protection.

No way.

I think we play our healthy guys. If you sit with an eye to game 4 you lose an opportunity that might not present itself. I think you play your healthy guys but pull the rip cord if it looks ugly in the first half. We might have an unusually hot game 3 or they might be cold. Giving our guys a game off would also allow them to manage minutes with key guys and I think Leonard is wearing out. I also think that gym lends itself to good shooting... kinda closed off and quiet like the bubble.

I’m not advocating it. I’d like to win game 3. But if we sat people I think it opens up some unanticipated chaos.

But I’m sitting here with some withdrawals and needing a fix and I can’t stand the thought of having my weekend game be a loss. The whole fam has been together watching the games on the TV. The regular season it was usually just me watching on my phone, so it’s been great bonding, too. Win that game.

Royce is on his way to LA.



He’s taking his Pomeranian. It’s got papers.

That will only be true if we win a championship

That would be a legendary dad-dicking.

It's a little early to proclaim Donovan as the greatest Jazz player ever. My Stockton-to-Malone heart will ache a little, but I will get over it with a championship.

I noticed Joe Ingles was absent from that Stephen A quote... I guess everyone already assumes no one will be better than he is... seems fair.

I don’t think it ends well if we sat them. I think Mike is ready and we might spring it on the clips late on Saturday to give them a jolt of WTF energy. They seem to be overly reactive so it might send Lue spinning.
