*** Utah Jazz @ Detroit Pistons Wednesday October 28th 5:30 MT Official Game Thread***

He needs to play as good as he usually does. He is the max money guy and face of the franchise

His basket could be a game winning layup right over the face of the other franchise who is one of the best defenders in the game.

He had a bad game on offense, not that bad overall.

Everyone but Favors played worse than we need them to.

Gobert got 0 offensive rebounds and feel asleep on an important clutch play.

Burks scored at the end to help us out a lot, but other than that it was another game of mostly individual offense without any other contributions.

Burke was awful.

Neto was alright. Forced some weird *** shots.

All the backups were all poor, besides Burks.

Burke played? Lol

I'll be the first to admit Booker's value is often over-stated around these parts but I think they really missed him tonight. A couple of hustle plays and a few rebounds by him with the second unit might have made the difference.

Trey Lyles certainly didn't distinguish himself. 0 points 1 rebound and a -15 in 8 minutes...yikes.

You're always going to have a really bad +- when you play 4 on 5.

I wish Burke played a game where you couldn't tell he was on the floor..... might've won.

Blazers are either a dark-horse playoff team or Pelicans are awful.

Didn't they fire their coach last season? Who's the new guy?

The Jazz made 3 or more threes in every single game last season. Tonight, in the first game of 2015-16, they made just 2.

Pelicans have a ton of injuries right now, and I think the Blazers are a dark horse....the west is so loaded while the east is pathetic

I want to say at least burke wasn't chucking up shots, but he probably went too far in the other direction really. 2 shots (no threes) is not enough from one of our 'scorers' off the bench.

 

[kabenac]

It sucks we lost this game. Hayward underperformed and too many players underachieved. Feel free to do something, Lyles.

Noone on the Pistons exploded - it was a good, mostly-consistent performance by the their players.

I expected the Jazz to win this one.

But the east has the mighty pistons, so it balances out.
