Game Thread Nov 18, 2022 07:00PM MT: Jazz vs. Suns

[HeatCheck]

I watched the Suns telecast. NAW wasn't cheering either he just looks defeated on the bench. Kinda feel for the dude tbh.

Jazz sent a strong message to the pro tankers tonight: STFU

FWIW I would like to go on the record as saying im not pro tank or anti tank. Im pro jazz and this season its ALL good.

THANK YOU Ben Dowsett!

He started the Atlanta game and got like 3 straight FT trips to start the game. He gets a pretty good amount of respect.

The start of one game isn't a very good sample size imo.
FWIW he is averaging 4 free throw attempts per game. I have no idea if that is high, low, or average for a player like him. Seems low if I had to guess though.

Boller is elite at interviewing and never asking a question.

“You scored a career high 38”


“………..ok”

Awesomeness. We are going to miss the laughs when he is gone.
I remember one play tonight where a suns player (booker I think) hit a kinda long two. But not even really that long of a two. It was like 18 footer or something. Boler says "he hits a three" (or something like that) and then a few seconds later he says "oh, it looks like they only gave him a two"
Good stuff. He is the THT of broadcasters. Has a great skill that keeps him in his job (AMAZING voice) and is hilariously bad at the same time.

Dear Olynyk: Please stop flopping.

This. he has been the only player on the team that I have hated this entire season. that isn't to say he isn't playing well this season or being a major part of our wins. I just hate watching him. He annoys the crap out of me all the time.

I'm all for them competing and playing hard but man the draft odds just keep getting worse and worse..

Sorry but I think this team needs one top 5 pick and they could be set for a nice long run. I don't think they have enough young talent at this point especially when you compare our under 24 yo players to some of the other rosters in this league.

 

[fishonjazz]

Not to be a buzzkill but Jazz likely lose if CP3 was playing tonight.
They keep lucking out. So many stars on opposing teams have missed games against the Jazz (CP3, Morant, Bane, Ingram, Kawhi, Lebron, etc)

Eh, they were missing their 40 year old and we were missing our 40 year old as well. sixes

Really doe, if cp3 plays he probably takes some shots away from booker and the guys whose minutes went up in cp3 absence played very well.

Dont call it luck and try to take something away from that win. Suns played great. Just not as good as the jazz.

 

[fishonjazz]

No, other teams are lucking out that we’ve been given the worst schedule in the entire league. It is continuing too. We have to travel to Portland tomorrow for a back-to-back.

I bet we win. Dame or no dame

 

[MTS]

I think we win this one. I think our shooting shows up again (im looking at you mike jordan) finally and the home crowd propels us to the win.

When he's aggressive he typically gets calls. He isnt always aggressive. His 4 per game is a fair number for him.

Booker drops 49 on us. How many guys are we going to see with career nights?

You are forgetting the most important career high tonight. Lauri. Also, im pretty sure 49 isn't bookers career high. I think he scored over 60 one time or something.
