Utah Jazz vs Portland Trailblazers Tonight at 7pm MST 11/1/2017

Really selfish play by Hood at the 11:38 mark to force something up when Sefolosha was wide open behind the 3 point line with nobody within 10 feet.
 
Yeh, it's a hard layup for a bad rim finisher or a small player, but anyone with athletic ability and size it should be pretty routine.

I rewound it and watched it again. It’s at the 1:42 mark of the first quarter. He went up and under the defenders arm off the wrong foot for a left hand finish off the wrong side of the hoop. Not easy. Not routine imo.
Lots of guys might miss that shot. Some struggle just to finish with their left hand in ideal conditions.
 
Notice no comments about Hood's missed opportunities. Burks hate is strong.

Naw, Hood needs to figure his **** out too. Plays like Charmin and no confidence 50% of the time.

So why would he attempt it?
