What's new

Last game of the season -- Jazz @ Blazers 4/11/2018 8:30 pm MST

We had more turnovers than them and shot worse than them and only lost by single digits on the road. Not terrible.

I'm curious, was Mitchell taking dumb shots? I saw his shooting numbers. Also, screw Crowder. The guy is gonna shoot us out of a playoff game or two.

I can agree with that. I crashed about half time (new sleep schedule for work). I also give PDX some credit on D as they were stingy. Just wasn't our night apparently. Ah well.

It was a much more comprehensive loss than the final score indicates. They killed us .. physical on every play and clogged the paint. No room to move and we were getting pushed and shoved and hacked Good prep for the playoffs, far more valuable than a cushy win would have been.
 
Ugh. Horrible hangover. Drank way too much. Slept like ****. Gotta go to work now. So not worth it.
 
Tough place to play the back end of a B2B.

Jazz were tired, and it showed.

Thankfully we'll have a few days until the next game. We'll be fresh, and focused.

We ended up 9-8 on the second end of back to backs. Not saying it’s not true but it really shouldn’t affect us that much.
 
Synder outcoached tonight
Why would Neto even see the floor?
Rudy got dominated he seemed slow tonight. Hope he can fix that for the playoffs. Also, Rubio needs to shoot more he is the engine.

Snyder did not get outcoached. Jazz played poorly. He can't go out there and make shots. Portland made tough, contested shots, and Jazz couldn't make open 3's which allowed the Blazers to pack the paint, then the refs wouldn't give the Jazz any calls, which I would have been fine with if not for the ridiculous calls against the Jazz. That foul on Exum where he stonewalled Lillard being the worse, but there were 4-5 calls against the Jazz that were less of a foul than 4-5 no calls against the Blazers. Not only the points were a problem, but it changed the momentum of the game.
 
Here are my observations:

#1 Portland was really prepared and focused. They came to play and played well.

#2 The refs gave every call to Portland in the first half. It was comical.

#3 Mitchell got some good schooling which should help in playoff prep.

#4 It is complete and total bullcrap that we had to play such an important game, game #82, on the 2nd night of a back to back. Whoever schedules NBA games is a freaking moron. That should never happen. If our playoffs lives depended on last night, how incredibly unfair that scenario would have been.

Would they have scheduled GS or Cleveland on a B2B for the last game of the season? Seems easy enough to make sure no team has that.
