NO VS Jazz 7pm MTS - Ingles will be out Wednesday...

8th seeds suck at times during the season.

So everything they did last year was Gobert and Exum ?

yes

This is the first season in a while that Jazz homecourt is so easily conquerable.

Allowed 10-21 3pt. D lost the game. We were clueless at the end on O, but we aren't grinding out the D anymore. What's going on? I know Dante and Rudy are better, but I feel like effort has more to do with it than defensive talent.

This season started hurting me more than 13-14 season. Seriously...

This team is exhausted though. They 2 losses to OKC took a lot of steam out of this team. They really went all in those games physically and mentally. We need some rest and some monster games from Hayward and Favors going forward.

I also dont know why this team doesn't feed the hot hand. Favors is dominating in the third and cant miss yet he doesn't touch the ball multiple possessions during that quarter or just runs the hand off play.

Agreed. Blows my mind that they didn't run plays thru him. They posted him up once I think and Davis blocked it. No reason to not run PnR and post him again.

Also Neto was on fire and only played 10 min. 3-3, 2 ast, 8 pts.

Didn't watch but bad loss. Season is kind of lost without Gobert and Exum. If Lyles looked even remotely promising I could find some interest in watching these games, but he's horrific.

Wow, that game hurt.

Makes the Denver game Wednesday real important to get......

 

[MTS]

I swear this team has no killer instinct. They have so many losses already this season where they play well, build a decent lead, and then proceed to start wasting possessions with careless mistakes while their effort goes out the window defensively.

They get content with leads. Instead of going for the kill once they build a league, a lot of the players just relax and the focus is gone. I noticed it right when Favors dunked it to give the Jazz an 8 point lead. Harpring even followed up with the comment that it felt like the Jazz were on the verge of blowing the game open. And then what happened? The Jazz pissed away multiple possessions with stupid mistakes, jogged back in transition, and just like that the game was close again.

I blame Joe Ingles. Missed this crucial game.

It's Gobert, Favors, Hayward and everyone else. Still have hope for Burks and Exum, but they need an infusion of talent AND some development from the young guys. Being forced to play Withey, Booker, Lyles and Neto this year certainly was not the plan. Gotta hope that Exumcones back healthy and ready to contribute next year if they're going to take a significant step, because I don't see a major free agent or quality draft pick coming in and changing the trajectory. Maybe the Jazz will cash in some of those trade assets at the deadline for a surprise acquisition.
