Jazz at Dubs Official Game Thread -- 8:30PM MT: NBATV, ROOT

Isn't it getting old that our guys sit out these games for the lamest excuses? Hood and gas? We all know wht happened, he drank too much last night. And favors? Come on. When we miss out on a good seed or miss out on the playoffs you come to realize that every game counts. Lose to the warriors? That's fine. They're an awesome team. But at least give yourself a chance. When half your roster doesn't bother to show up due to lame excuses, it tells me that they just really don't care.
 
If I were gobert I'd be pissed. He's got that alpha dog mentality. He's surrounded by wusses. He'd fit in better in San Antonio and their winning mentality. We just don't seem to care enough to compete. This roster is physically talented but so mentally weak

annnnddd just on time post game that we lost ..
 
1. We missed too many open looks in the 1st quarter. That let the Warriors sag off guys like Exum, Diaw, and Mack to cover our main scorers and clog passing lanes as they neither respected our PG's drives or respect their shooting when our other players drived.
2. Mack got penetration but he typically didnt make good decisions, same with Exum, once he got there.
3. Hood had diarrhea.
4. We can't ask Hayward to cover Durant on one end and be the primary ball-handler on offense against KD/Iggy. Too much to ask from Hayward and expect an effective offensive showing.
5. Diaw has to hit shots when they leave him completely open like they did tonight or he is hard to play, or at least the entire purpose of him being on the court is mostly lost.
6. Turnovers

I think most of our problems are alleviated by Hill being back. He will limit TO's, make good decisions off the bounce, and open up our players for shots in better rhythm. Favors being back will be nice, but I dont think we can really get away with playing Favors with Gobert too much against them. The key is having Hill to space the floor and make it easier on Hood/Hayward.

Hood had diarrhea, and Hayward had yeast infection tonight.
 
shhhh...you're not supposed to talk about that.

Talk about it all you want, just don't be dumb and act like two poor all-around games out of 22 in a season where Hayward's otherwise been stellar is some sort of trump card against Hayward fans.
 
And he was bad in Denver, and against Jimmy Butler, and he's always awful against SAS

It's pretty telling that you have to bring up games from over a month ago, when Hayward's shot was off from playing through a broken finger no less, to keep this stupid anti-Hayward discussion going.

Getting tired of fickle fans bitching Hayward out. Instead of being happy that Hayward is a really ****ing good player who is having a career season, they throw him under the bus for not being in the LeBron/Durant/Kawhi tier of SF's.
 
All things considered holding them to 104 isn't too shabby.

[MENTION=437]Shad[/MENTION] had this game on the # tho, GSW by 30 - check the 1st page
 
Hayward at least played. I'm annoyed that the Jazz had given up both games against the Warriors before the tip off. Either it's a lack of strong players or a poor training staff. Benching Favors tonight and not tomorrow was giving up too.
