Playing with passion. Love to see it.I realize we should probably be tanking harder than we are, but man - in terms of unexpected joy, LULZ and sheer entertainment value, hard to get better than this.
I would say the Jazz lost their lead on the 4th quarter simply because the Pels suddenly got the momentum, played hard defense, and the crowd was loud and wild behind them. Was an impressive win for the Jazz in the hostile barn.Well, believe it or not, Kessler currently has a 2.0 offense +/- and a whopping 141 offensive rating. Him being on the floor does make our offense flow better instead of settling for happy threes like we've seen year after year under Quin. Same reason Rudy made our offense better with his cutting and screen setting despite being limited offensively himself.
Him being on the floor may not have prevented a pels come back and forcing OT, but the fact is we almost blew pels out of the building with him on the floor then simply threw our lead away once we took him out.
Good lord man. Just one pick and we should be thrilled.Price is going up. Westbrook + '27 + '29 for Conley, Beasley, Gay. I can throw in NAW, Bolmaro, etc, but Vanderbilt is no longer on the table.
Yeah, I know, it was in jest. At least partly, I do think the price has gone up (in particular with Lakers' awful play), but yeah, we're not getting two picks for that lot.Good lord man. Just one pick and we should be thrilled.
Conley is averaging 31 and 27 from the field and three. Gay is mediocre most days. Beasley is one dimensional. Let's not overrate our individual assets because they are collectively overachieving as a team.
