Added to Calendar: 05-29-21

Dillon Brooks is shooting way above his averages in this series. I think he has an off game tonight and we win by double digits.
 
To me this game is the most important one so far in the series. Win here and we not only get home court back but start to put serious doubt into the Grizzlies heads about being able to beat us over the course of the series.
Ph.D. in BB psychology.
 
You don't need to deny him the ball all game, but using it to generate some of those 10-0 runs would be primo. Ultimately, containing all of the offensive damage they can do to just Ja is a good strategy. We have like 4 guys that can balance that out.

I just think the Jazz become very hard for Memphis to beat the more Mitchell plays. I don't think Brooks can defend Mitchell without fouling.

So I think he might actually feed off the negative attention and be one of those guys that is better when being the villain. He’s like that crazy girl you dated in high school that loves to fight way more than she loves when things are going well.

Curious to see if he keeps it up.
 
I'm not surprised, the guy is getting anything he wants at the rim.
His shots are too easy... there is a big difference in a floater in the 3-5 range and 7+ feet. With his length and athleticism it is just too easy.

it’s like that little half hook JC used to go to on his drives... it’s a lot easier than a runner. We have to make those shots harder or push them further out... also may need to make him second guess his reads a bit by mixing in some altered coverages.
 
To me, it’s all about getting these guys into foul trouble. Draw as many fouls as you can, two early ones would be beautiful.
