From Clipperholics - I’m talking 119.7 points per possession good in non-garbage time minutes. That mark is six points higher than the second team in the league. The high scoring is understandable given that they are effectively shooting 59.6% from the field and are third in free throw rate, attempting 27.9 per 100 possessions. That is the unstoppable force.
The immovable object? Utah’s defense. They are allowing just 93.7 points per possession in non-garbage time minutes, which is first in the league. They are allowing the fourth-lowest effective field goal percentage in the league (46.2%) and are generating turnovers on 16.7% of their opponent’s possessions. With Rudy Gobert anchoring their defense, it makes complete sense. What happens when these two units face each other? We’ll find out.
Jazz have looked great on defense as usual, but haven’t looked good offensively at all. Donavan Mitchell is balling right now tho.
I do worry about Gobert vs Harrell. I really wish Doc would change this help and recover defensive philosophy. I remember this killing us in the Blake era.
There is a whole lot of helping and not a lot of recovering. Leaving wayyy to many open shooters every game.
Just a theory but I feel like the game is played at a way higher pace than in the years back when Doc first started running this defense. Probably back in Boston days.
Shamet not working for us in offense or defense. Try Mann!!
If the Clippers win, I will be pleased. If the Jazz win, I will be sad.
Utah...
seems wildly overrated to me. Lot of people overvaluing Conley who has been atrocious. (I say this and he’ll probably go off tonight).
well, if conley's gonna shoot like this i think that's gonna do it
The starting unit it a horrible mix even with Kawhi. Shamet won’t shoot, Patterson can’t shoot, Beverly not aggressive scoring and Zubac plays the least amount of minutes to provide true value
Lou is on Mitchell. Looking forward to a win. Against the Spurs.
Conley looks SOOOO bad in this offense. I know he'll figure it out, he's great. But holy cow he looks bad right now.
This aged poorly.
Holy **** Mitchell that was nice!
30 seconds of this zone is 30 seconds too many of this zone
I forgot Mike Conley’s overpaid *** is on the Jazz,
Lou going full Harden out there and we really need it.
Can we not load manage Kawhi until PG gets back? Thanks.
another horrendous display of preparation and line-up decisions- Leonard needs a break after 4 games?? Long season - we need a younger coach who finds chemistry BEFORE the season...
Jeez..... Lost to the Jazz??
I know imagine losing to a preseason top 4 team in the west, the preseason number 1 defensive team, and not having your two stars playing
Never load management again We are in the West not in the east Imagine finish 7 seed !
And there are 12 more back to back games this season LoL I hope Doc's youngsters and bench guys develop fast.
Conley pick and roll with Gobert is killing us. Zubac has to do a better job hedging that. He is literally glued to Gobert.
Conley has woken up. Against the Clippers. Typical.
Donovan seems like a good dude but he seems like a theater kid who learned how to ball.
**** Joe Ingles btw
One of those nights when you welcome the harsh embrace of the Cardiac Clippers.
We need to be better than this without Kawhi and PG. Not good enough Doc and the team. We are lacking the hardness we had last year. Take a good look in the mirror lads.
Why is Kawhi resting against a playoff contending team? He should be resting against bad teams.
doc!!!!! When do your players play like a team?????? no team defense one on one offense
dumbass lakers fans gonna talk **** not knowing Kawhi didn’t play.
So this is the game where Conley comes back to life huh? SMH
That was quick. Mike Conley pretty much just put the Jazz up 9 himself.
Gobert sets some good *** screens tho
why couldnt conley continue sucking *** smh
Gobert with a blatant moving screen and holding our guys on literally every single pick
god ****ing damnit. The jazz cant miss tonight.
Even Ed Davis scoring
Half of these dudes are scared to shoot the ball.. there's one too many passes going on
The caveat is that the Number 1 ranked offense is missing its best player, but yes - 5 games played, 0 opponents over scoring 100 pts.
They completely shut down Kawhi.
Jazz fans: when is Conley gonna show up. Conley: hold my beer.
Nah man, it’s Utah. Hold my non-sinful beverage.
Oh ****, we're playing the Jazz again on Sunday!
Conley gave us hope with a quiet first half, but finally turned on the inevitable "god mode against the Clippers".
Everyone throwing in floaters tonight
Conley has engaged God mode.
Yikes. Utah look like damn 2k team. This **** brazy.
Our problem is....that when they execute their PnR, our center commits to help because our defense sucks **** when Jazz guards drive in....leaves Gobert wide open to just score
I guess they really are calling travelling this year smh
Conley's not going to duplicate tonight's performance on Sunday, that's for damn sure
and you can take that to the bank
Our defense is horrible. I am not convinced Kawhi and PG fixes that.
Watching this game makes me wish I was muerto
I realize that Conley and Utah just caught fire
but the Clips defense has been terrible too – they’re like 2-3 steps slow (at best) in closing out on shooters
I don't think anyone was expecting to win tonight
but this is just embarrassing. I don’t think I’ve ever seen these dudes coast like this. Doc might as well just send in the rooks and Motley – not like they’re gonna bring any less intensity.
We need doc on load management
not gonna lie jazz arena music playing lots of great 90s rap.
Let’s not forget that the Jazz will be one of the best teams this season especially as Conley gets clicking.. I think we all know this game was going to be tough
We just stay getting dicked by Conley lol
Just want to say Gobert is easily one of my least-favorite players in the entire league, and that's with guys like Harden and Draymond. Him and Ingles just piss me off
Enjoy that load management. How many true GOATS took 1/3 of the season and looked in the mirror or their fans and still cash those million dollar checks and have self-respect to 100%. What it do. Cyborg!
