I thought we had good internal defense. Gobert is all but invisible.

 

[SteakNEggs]

Rudy isn’t playing with a ton of effort tonight on defense. Isn’t making the normal plays he would.

He's guarding his man, plus Williamson

 

[kabenac]

Worst third quarter of the season.

 

[BabyPeterzz]

we ready for all star break.

 

[Hekate]

It's probably all-star break blues. We have been looking forward to that for some time.

 

[zyzz]

I'm pretty sure Conley has airballed two floaters by miles, but they ended up being accidental lobs

 

[SoUjazzfan]

This is one of those Mitchell will lose the game singlehandedly games.

No, this one is on the defense (or lack thereof).

 

[str8line]

They have 9 TO, we have 8

 

[Elizah Huge]

I thought we had good internal defense. Gobert is all but invisible.

He’s not challenging shots like he normally would. No second burst or jump on shots.

 

[str8line]

They have 37 REB, we have 25

 

[Utesnjazz]

No, this one is on the defense (or lack thereof).

Exactly

 

[MT Steve]

I mean we have the biggest point differential in the league. Tough to say we aren't killers.

So did the Bucks the previous two seasons, and in both they ended up melting down in the playoffs.

I just want to see one game. Just one. Where we're trailing going into the final few minutes, and we impose our will and win the game.

I don't have faith in our ability to play well in such a scenario - I think we have to be leading comfortably in order to play well down the stretch in games.

this... If you are ready for a break two of the last guys you probably want to go against are Zion and Adams because of how physical they are.

 

[str8line]

Pels shooting 59%, Jazz 47%

 

[DasJazz]

Still going to win by 7.

 

[Hekate]

It would be pretty cool to come back from here. Expecting big minutes from Mitchell.

We haven't had a lot of opportunities to do that. I agree and would like to see that too... maybe its tonight.

 

[zyzz]

Wtf happened to Conley's floater? That thing is gross lol

 

[str8line]

Oh my, we going down.

 

[The Thriller]

This game is over. You can’t dick around with a good team
