SLC Dunk - Utah Jazz vs Toronto Raptors: The Overtone

Up 4, kind of disappointing after the hot start. Curious to see if Casey starts Bebe in the 2nd half.
 
Feels like Toronto has a lot of points of TO's. I think if we take care of the ball we have a chance to win. Got to think Lowry is going to come out in the 2nd half motivated to get buckets.
 
hood and hayward need to get more involved in the 2nd half, cant rely on mack to shoot 86% for the game to be in this one
 
Haywards got some fouls is why

Ingles has talked about trying to be real physical with opponents and see what he can get away with and get them off their game. Apart from being slow he's better defensively that what he gets credit for
 
At least Hayward is likely to be defending him in the 4th quarter. Quickness really dominates the pair of Joes

Joe Johnson shouldn't be guarding DeRozan at-all. He's toying with him. It's like he's looking at him thinking " I could do this, do that, or this and then spin into this and fake" or sorta like a boxer such as Chocolatito sizing up an opponent for a 15punch combination..

Iso Joe is totally frozen by the jab step and he's toast once that happens.
 
Yeah, but we are also only up 4 when Mack had 13 in a half and Lowry scored 5.

There is good and bad. The 2nd half will certainly be a lot different. Some good is that Hayward will likely be able to guard Derozan more in the 2nd half. So while Mack is certain to cool down and Lowry is likely to heat up, Derozan probabaly won't score every possession like he seemingly has in this 2nd quarter. And Hayward will probabaly play a little better offensively too.

Totally agree. Jazz just don't have any good options at wing defender after Hayward.
