Game Thread? Jazz @ Warriors. 2nd Round. 1st Game. (8:30 MT 5/2/17)

Nice to cut it to twelve.

Gotta cut back on the turnovers. But honestly, they are just so damn good. Even our best vs their decent would be a super tough game for us.
 
In a game like this, Ingles' lack of athleticism stands out a bit. Diaw too. Jazz need to add more athleticism.

That said, Exum fits right in.
 
Quins thinks to be a wizard, he played Mack tonight only because he scored 16 points in the penultimate regular season game and the Jazz won.

I only know that Snyder made many mistakes in the Clippers series too.
 
Has anyone gotten dribble penetration other than Mack?

When he played backup pg not backup sg. Backup sg with JJ at the 4 Favs at the 5 and Ingles at the 3. That was dumb. The result spoke for itself. It was an 11 point swing. QS called a timeout and adjusted the rotation for a reason. I'm not even Blaming Mack his coach put him in a ****ty spot.
 
And Exum threw away two points yet no one berates him like they do Mack? I just ask for consistency in people's bitching

Serious question... have you been watching game? Mack has been abused badly on defense and isn't moving the ball. He's been beat back multiple times. At least Exum got one back with his steal and should have been two points. You cannot tell me his length and athleticism are better to defend Livingston Andy curry. If you do, you're delusional.
 
I thought it was just against CP3 but I think Exum is the better defender than Hill now Exum has recovered from his ACL surgery and Hill is slowing down. Although it's probably more that Exum is only playing in short stints and is going all out. He needs more minutes.

We are losing this game though because of stupid unforced mistakes. Jazz need to calm down and play their game.

Hill looks so much slower than the beginning of the season.
 
Hayward got the ball underneath. The play was on him after he got it. He could have dribbled it out, taken a better angle, etc.

Exum hater plain and simple. Sing another song. We've heard this one.

No, Im just being consistent. If Mack gets blamed for things he's not even involved in, then I'm going to call out Exum for running a terrible fastbreak

I'm not saying play him over Mack. Tbh I dont think it matters. These games aren't going to be won or loss by the backup pg. I think Mack does some things well against them. He got two wide open layups off dribble penetration and I have yet to see any other Jazz player do so.

Ofc exum plays better D, but he hurts the Jazz in half court offense. If he isn't making defensive plats or working in transition he can hurt the offensive execution.

He got those layups because GS was sagging off him. It's not like he beats his man off the dribble.
 
@Cy if Mack got that steal and then passed that ball to Hayward which Dray stole I'm pretty sure none of us would be blaming Mack. That play was 100% great defense by Dray
