A good tanking loss. Ant will definitly be a superstar in the league. Impressive how he improve recently. I'm pretty sure he will be better than Don., If KAT and Rudy can be back for PO, they can be dangerous. For the jazz, we stuck right now. Keyonte will probably be a good offensive player, but need to improve defense by far,

Will be better? He already is better than Don.

Watching the replay on that dunk..... What's with Keyonte's half-assed defense when he gave up the turnover?

That's him on every play where something bad happens, especially his own turnovers.

I think Hardy has played his cards; the "no free minutes", "play hard" are pretty hollow, because he obviously won't bench Keyonte. And I don't think he should either.

But this team has only one veteran player (Dunn) who could pull him aside and tell him a few things. On another team there would be veteran leadership that would set him straight.

Sexton had 24 points on 53% from the field, 63% from three and 100% from the line.
Didn't take a single shot attempt in the last 6 and half minutes of the game lol. That's some good tanking.

That's some "played 18 minutes straight to the end and was totally gassed, because Hardy has no idea what his rotations are night to night". And that's a Hardy trait of course: playing a guard (JC) an impossible stint to the end with diminishing returns the longer they go.

I feel bad for Collins. Kind of hard to stop a dunk when your face gets taken out. You know his head hurt bad when Edwards dislocated a finger due to the force of the impact.

It feels like a little bit of a debbie downer to talk about, but that play was dangerous. I'm not sure if there is anything that should/could be done, but it also feels a little bit bad to celebrate something so violent.
 
I'd say it was a pretty clear offensive foul, and Jazz probably should've challenged, but I guess they felt the whole league would be mad at them for taking the dunk away.

I actually wonder if both dudes get hurt worse if Collins actually gets off the floor. I hated the Collins trade but John Collins the person and player is awesome and it sucks this happened to him. At least he didn’t get Jalen Johnson’s Junk dived in his face like Austin Reaves I guess.
 
There is clearly something amiss when both players get injured on the play and have to leave the game. The league might need to look into plays like this for player safety. Clotheslining and fore arm shivers to the head were once legal in football but no more.

The Johnson dunk was way better because he didn't push off, it was a nice dunk and he made Reaves his bizzle ha ha
