Game 6: Close it out -- Thunder @ Jazz 4/27/2018 8:30 pm MST

I predict a balanced game where 7 score in double figures, 2 with double digit rebounds, 3 with over 5 assists, 2 with scuffles, a couple of technicals, and the bench helps win this game by hitting shots in front of the best crowd in the NBA. The Jazz will not let up on the gas like they did in game 5.

Go Jazz!

I was at that game live in LA. Probably one of the best basketball moments of my long fandom (35+ years).

Did the titanic music play in the stadium? Had to have been a bad sign for clippers fans when the music started.

If they keep doing a switching defense then Exum is a guy who can exploit a matchup. We’ll see if Quin agrees.

If by exploit you mean dribble very fast in a straight line, toss it akwardly towards the hoop and then fall to the floor while the other team rushes to the other end 5 on 4, then yes I agree, Exum can exploit tonight.
 
I just got home from a camping trip and missed game 5. I tried to listen to it while I was fishing diamond for river but it wouldn’t come in. I did get it to come in if I stood in one certain spot by the campfire and held the radio a certain way. When I started listening the jazz were up 16 and I listened until they got up by 25. Then I shut it off.
Turned it back on with maybe 5 minutes left in the game. Locke would say the score but wouldn’t say which team was which score so I was hearing scores like 95-90 and figuring the jazz were up. Each team kept scoring back and forth I kept thinking we were up by 5-7 points. I finally found out we were the team that was losing when there was like a minute and a half left. Couldn’t believe it.

Anyone want to give me a brief summary of that game? Should we just not talk about that game in here and I should just read the gamethread? Is it worth it to watch that game on my dvr?




Anywho, I’m back home to watch this game so we will win it.

This seems pretty unfair.

Exum has been playing solid defense and has had some good moments this series. He definitely could be better, but are you SO disappointed that you wouldn’t even give him a shot as a dude who can blow by a slower defender switched onto him?

Harsh.

Staying out of foul trouble is the biggest key. I guarantee we win game 5 if Rudy had been able to stay on the court.

How the hell did Rudy and Favors each have 5 fouls while Adams had 0?

I don’t think I’d go back and watch it if I were you. Will make you sad.

Basically we hit them with a five finger death punch and then Rudy picked up a phantom foul and a stupid foul. The refs had major influence but we also completely broke down without Rudy.

Then we could never get back and going... stopped moving the ball.

They made two adjustments to watch for... Carmelo was placed on the bench and they stopped trapping and just switched.

It was my bday on Wednesday and it destroyed my bday... I don’t care about those type of things... hopefully your bday turns out better.
 
Btw one time I saw Ray Felton on the KFC bucket chart when he was having a good game... it was low key one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen.

he's not completely off base though. Dante has been absolutely terrible this post season. I know it may seem like solid defense, but his metrics don't agree.
PER of 5.0 (team worst) || oRtg of 82 (team worst) || dRtg of 109 (2nd worst) || BPM of -7.3 (team worst).
He's averaging more turnovers than assists --> He has a 31% turnover rate. Let me reiterate, 1 in every 3 of his possessions end in a turnover.

He's really bad right now, and this is the year we have to make a decision about him. Kinda sucks.
