Utah Jazz at Boston Celtics

I feel like the Jazz have taken a step back since guys are getting healthy and they have lost some chemistry. Helps explain why we have been barely getting past bad teams and getting spanked by good teams as of late.

I was wondering why Burks didn't get any PT? I only read the last few pages of the thread. Was there a reason he didn't play? I thought his quickness would help against Boston.

Also, I was very disappointed in Favors letting his man beat him down the floor for uncontested lay-ups several times. He also doesn't seem have any lift right now. He's gotta be far from 100 percent.

I also couldn't believe Horford and Crowder shooting the 3's like they did. It was a career high in 3's for Crowder; I don't know about Horford. But they also said the Celts set a franchise record for 3's.

So far as Exum, I do think he could've helped stop IT's penetration. Why isn't he playing? He was never injured, just knee soreness. I think there's more to this than tendonitis.

Against a team like Boston, we need to pound it inside more and let them foul out their big guys.

Good points IMO. Was hoping for a Burks sighting tonight but alas we just escaped a garbage time performance by a few buckets. Also, I can't believe that Lyles didn't get more than five minutes. Seemed like Faves was sucking wind out there and could have used a blow. No excuses though, they were the rested team and looked like it. Overall not a bad performance under the circumstances against the third best team in the East.

One more thing, just had to mention how much more Johnson and Diaw are starting to contribute. Seemed like the second string made the runs that got us back in the ten point range.

lmao, anyone seeing the drama with Jae Crowder and Boston fans? Dude called out Boston fans for cheering Gordon Hayward and someone on twitter said "Welcome to Boston, love it or leave it" and he responded "I have no problem leaving it".

Really? Wow. This dude has already decided that Hayward is signing there and he is on his way out. Lol

I have to say Crowder was definitely the x-factor in beating us. Damn Boston fans had to screw us.

Well he looked pretty good tonight. Wouldn't quite be able to fill Hayward's shoes on the offensive end but dude's a bruiser. Still I think if it did go down, we have enough shooters on the team to make up for the O. It's not like the guy has no skillz.

When have guys gotten healthy? Hill and Burks still out and Favors playing on half a tank.

We need Hill back and Favors to get back to 100%. Seriously concerned that Burks got 3 minutes and then a DNP. Doesn't sound like he's ready to play at all.
