Hill is Out for Heat at Jazz

[Handlogten's Heros]

Right on, what performance for your daughter? Dance? How old?

6.... singing/dancing group. They do a bunch of Christmas performances. Its the first one. She loves it and they keep them under an hour which I appreciate very much.

Hill is in our top 2 this season. Hard to argue otherwise right now, he is killing it for us right now and the biggest factor in winning. Going forward I think our top 2 are Hayward and Favors but I understand the argument for Gobert.

Hill really seems to unlock some things for Hayward and makes the game easier for him at times. I think Rudy may bring a little extra for Blancoside, so we prolly win. If Hayward shoots well we have no problem... if hes meh and we don't have Hood it's a ugly game that we probably win.

This should be an easy win for us still with all the injuries. I think that points to our talent at depth though, which I think it definitely top 5.

That sounds awesome.
I love that there is singing too

Why the hell hasn't Silver made injuries illegal yet?

I don think it's hard to argue, it's Hayward and Gobert.

Dragic is gonna have to score 45 for this Heat team to win ...

Really? I guess you can argue that but I would disagree. I would put Hill as #1 this season and I am not sure its close to me. I think those two could be considered our most valuable players but Hayward has not played great this season especially without Hill and Rudy is still a bit of a liability on half the court. Hill is our best player by almost any metric offensively, he has been the leader of the team and a good defensive player.

I suppose an argument could be made that Hayward will play better going forward and Hill will come down but so far Hill has been better. The same argument could be made that Favors could come back and be our best with improvement or 2nd best player like he was the last couple seasons. I think its fair to say those are our top 4 players and two of them are down for this game and the next two players after our top 4 are down. Most teams would really struggle with that, as the Jazz have but not as much as most teams would.

Hill's value is inflated because he has the worst backups compared to every other position. Gobert is the foundation for our team's identity and Hayward is our best overall player.

Gobert is the MVP of the Jazz and it isn't close.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Gobert is the MVP of the Jazz and it isn't close.

In a weird way you could argue Hill is MVP, but not even a top 3 player on the team. He is so valuable because his backups aren't very good and he makes our best player better.

 

[Hekate]

One day in dog house, one day starting. Why doesn't Quin start Mack if he trusts him more? It's weird.

So this is the game thread? Could this be the one where we finally get to

#BUCKLE UP

 

[spycam1]

I cringe every time Diaw shoots from 3--no matter how wide open he is.

Then the rest of the game happened.

HOW IS THAT CLEAR PATH?

 

[MT Steve]

What's the point of letting the refs review plays if they're just gonna **** up the call anyways?

 

[Ellipse]

HOW IS THAT CLEAR PATH?

Refs didn't even look at Hayward.

That's a fair point, but if i could choose one guy i could guarantee would never get hurt, it would be Rudy and i wouldnt think twice.
