Key looked SOOO bad today. If he was sick then why have him play through it? Give him 10 minutes. But Collier and Walt both need minutes. What better time than when Key is sick?

Ya, they shouldn't have even played him.

He was on the injury report with a sickness before being marked available. I think it was definitely a factor, but I think it was also just a disastrous game

This. Keyonte probably wasn't 100%, but to me it looked like he started feeling sorry for himself after a couple of ugly turnovers, and from there it was just a downward spiral.

Hardy should have taken him out a lot earlier.

There was always going to be bumps in the road for Keyonte.

I think he sucked yesterday because of the illness and the odd start time, but he let the old Keyonte come back out where he let his struggles manifest into his body language and made him worse. Hopefully he has a quick bounce back. I've been really impressed by his ability to bounce back in real time this season, so I doubt it spirals into a bad stretch.

It's rough though because the Jazz team isnt good enough to buoy Keyonte through the bad stretches. If he's bad, the team is going to be awful (especially if Lauri is struggling/being taken out by the opposing team).
