What's new

GT: Goliath @ David Thursday Dec 8, Vivint Smart Home Arena 7:00 PM MT

I stopped watching when we were down 20 in the first (mostly cos it was friday afternoon and I had a team meeting, but also cos bleh), so we basically won the post fgcamel game.
 
How do you grade Dante this game ....he was horrible offensively yet played 37 minutes and helped hold GS 14 points less that their average (120PPG)

I'm right now at a Coldplay concert. Chris Martin is one goofy white mother...r who I'm tipping still might have been a more active and effective point guard tonight. X seems confused as all F atm
 
Two positives I saw from this **** show were Ingles and Gobert. Like I said maybe prematurely a season ago, Rudy is the leader of this team. Or will be.

Ingles I wanted off the team, but there is no denying hes a solid player, and fits in well here. Hes a great role player fit for the team.
 
Gobert 9-9 FG, Diaw 4-7, Ingles 7-13.

The rest of the team pretty much sucked FG%.

G.S. played their starters full minutes.

This was a real-deal moral victory.

G.S. and the rest of the league just saw how dangerous we could be.
 
Not sure about anyone else, but this game reminded me a lot of the 2003/2004 Sloan team. It had the same type of vibe. You knew they were going to lose, but they fought very hard every game and it was a joy to watch.
 
@Warriorsworld on twitter is talking mad smack on the jazz right now because one jazz fan made a 3-1 joke.

Grats on barely escaping our bench with horribly bad calls.

Man I hope the players are seeing all this. I'd be such a jerk if I played.

Solid post. If everyone gets healthy, there's your playoff rotation. . .

Gobert, Favors, Hayward, Hood, Hill - Burks (please Lord, let Burks finish this year healthy), Diaw and Jingles. Rock/paper/scissors with Lyles, Mack and Exum for each game. Jingles is so underrated off the bench. All he does is come in and make good things happen. Ultimate glue guy.
 
Jazz need a Dennis Rodman-esqe enforcer type. Anybody out there worth going after? I want them to have a guy that bends these soft teams over and wrecks them. Throwing elbows and getting into their heads. I know Gobert has that mentality, but I want somebody who can come in off the bench and have that impact without hurting the team if he gets ejected.

Bogut.
 

Good suggestion. Not a huge fan of the guy, but that's exactly the type of mentality that the Jazz need. I'd like to see them go after somebody at the deadline who can fit that role. Either that, or throw some assets at whatever top level guy comes available. Won't be cheap, but adding more talent to the top of the roster would not be a bad thing.
 
1) People are taking waaaaaaaay too much from this game. They were killing us and then started coasting. It doesn't mean they aren't that good or that we are so much better than we thought. There are games like this in sports every week.
2) **** the Dubs. I loathe them. I sort of want the 4 seed (definitely possible), to win in the first round, and then play them in the 2nd round. If we can win one game in the series, I'd be content. If we won two, I'd be very, very happy. It would mean we are that close to taking a leap.
3) Their laughing at Quin infuriates me. If someone has video/audio of that, it needs to be shown before tipoff the night of the next time we play them.
4) Trade for Bogut. I wouldn't say we're a soft team but we're certainly not tough. The Dubs weren't until they added Draymond and Bogut. If we can trade for Bogut, he's the perfect backup center-enforcer type and increases our badassedness in spades.
5) I'm not sure I can mentally give Exum more than about another month to show me something. Anything. I'm to the point where I want to trade him for a legit backup vet pg.

Hill-new backup
Hood
Hayward-Johnson-Ingles
Favors-Lyles-Diaw
Gobert-Bogut

Just not sure how I feel at the backup 2. We could also find someone there. Korver maybe for one of our late 1sts?

6) **** the Dubs.
