Game Thread Oct 25, 2023 07:00PM MT: Jazz vs. Kings

[Handlogten's Heros]

This game is the evidence #1 we need to start Kris Dunn. I dout we will. This season is going to be about development and trying to see whether we get traded THT or Collin Sexton or both. The org. needs them to throw in stat lnies. Nut we need Kris Dunn vr the etter shooting teams will obliterate our back-court.

Kris was bad tonight

In the 1st half, Jazz played zone D on 21 possessions, giving up 24 points. Seemed like more. Transition D was terrible.

and Kessler struggles vs non traditional big

Kessler owned Sabonis last season.

Most of Sabonis's scoring production tonight was not against Kessler.

Why couldn’t we start last year like this?

Kris was bad tonight

No. He is my "THT mountain" I will stand on til the end!

I would hand the keys to Keyonte and let him learn to play with our bigs. He can then play with a secondary playmaker to take a bit of pressure off. Jazz may as well get him reps.

Because we had veteran pieces like Mike Conley and Malik Beasley that we needed to shop for a trade.

So many drives to nowhere… paint is packed.. so many dribble into a meh shot possessions.

I feel like the spacing is not great to begin with, but we're not exactly getting explosive drives to begin with. Our guards don't have the threat of shooting off the dribble. That combined with next to no off ball movement makes us so predictable. The defense was straight up terrible tonight though. Even Kessler got his **** pushed in by McGee.

And how does Kessler become more than broke man’s Gobert? Because if it’s just gonna be the same story if we ever make the playoffs and have a decent team I’d rather just move on before then.

He’s good… but tonight he was bad… it wasn’t a good example of why he should start imo. I’m a fan of his fosure.

I think he's more like a bouncier version of Brook Lopez with less post-up game.

Doesn’t Brook Lopez shoot threes decently?
