[MTS]

Jazz give up 46 pts in a quarter with few, if any, defensive adjustments and without calling a timeout for 10 mins. Anyone see if Will Hardy was beet-red with anger?

Timeouts don't do any good if you have no answers.

They literally changed to zone at one point....

For like 2 possessions. It kinda worked.

Really just a battle of styles and who can make their open 3s

Not really. Duop just missed an open 3

He's just getting the guys in shape. No TOs equals a great cardio workout.

I dont think any of us expected ny defense with Keyonte, Svi, Flip, Lauri, and Walker starting ... but then who's going to play defense on the bench?

I was gonna make this comment earlier in the year but Ace doesn't seem to have much of a vertical. Seems like on his dunks he barely gets over the rim.
Even on a wide open breakaway dunk.
It's weird because he has good height and length and seems like a jumper but then looks like he struggles to dunk a little bit.
It's confusing

Keyonte just has really inconsistent base/balance on his 3s. Even when he's mostly open there seems to be too much movement in his base. Might have to rework his base at some point to make it a bit more of a set shot. He's on fire from the FT line.

Brooklyn Nets start 0-5 with a -14 point differential. Looks like they're the pacesetters. NOLA and Indiana not far behind.

I didn't think a Rick Carlisle team would tank, but it looks like it's on its way.

I really liked the buckets from Taylor.
He has developed some new stuff.

Could be the knee tendinitis.

Walker Kessler is going to be a top 6 shooter by the end of the year.
