Utah Jazz v. Houston Rockets 1/4 7:00 PM MT

[Jazz4ever]

Analyzing what we can control, the Jazz melted down in the fourth quarter. The offense was stagnant, indecisive, and overall just lacked any killer instinct. Such is the life of any team with no true 1st option though.

Must be ridiculous to watch this rockets team three times a week. I feel bad for them.

People were saying Houston was a contender... They look worse than late 00's Hawks team in terms of concentration, cohesion etc.

This game hurts so much. Why did Quin feel the need to change the rotations in the 3rd from what we did in the 1st/2nd? Taking Hayward out early in the 3rd, when we were playing well, and making him play the entire 4th. Hindsight 20/20, but that seems like a bad decision.

dude... we were beneficiaries of a bad call just ONE game ago. We would have lost otherwise.

True. But that call was 60/40. This one was 99.9/ 0.1 Really hard to imagine how it was missed by a sighted person.

Big poop.

Terrible non call on Withey. No excuse.

But this L is on the Jazz. They got away from what gave them the lead in the first place. The ball stopped moving andf they started ISOing. That isn't their game. They don't have the players for that.

It wasnt even a game changing call since we got another chance to tie the game with less than 24 seconds left on the clock.

Would we rather be down 3 with Hood taking 3 FT's for the tie, or down 2 with Withey taking 2 FT's to tie the game? It seems like Hood is the better scenario for us.

Rough math in my head says it's a tiny bit higher % for Hood to hit 3 than Withey to hit 2. So yeah in that sense it was ok. Still sucks to get screwed on a call like that.

Offence completely spluttered, couldn't get any rythm that 4th qtr we scored only 14....

I was talking about the Grizz game. We don't win that game without the phantom "foul" on Hood.

I agree with this, Quin speculate too much to rest the best players when the Jazz have a notable lead.

He wasted a timeout at the end too. Another thing I noticed is that he waits too much before calling a timeout when the opposing team has a run.

True-All the above

There were also a bad non call that went against the Jazz in that game as well in the stretch. When Conley went out of bounds with it and was allowed to pass the ball back in.
