GAME THREAD: Utah @ Golden State, 2/2/12, 8:30 Utah time

[Jerry Lundegaard]

Wow. Harris out (hamstring) so Tinsley getting the start tonight via Jazz twitter
Hayward and Burks expected to carry some of the PG - Brian T. Smith tweet

Should be interesting to watch.

Yikes...

Hopefully Tinsley can step up.

Go Jazz!

Wow, the drama factor just went up by a 1,000. So bummed I may not be able to watch this game until tomorrow.

Locke says per Corbin Hayward and CJ will be second PG option.
In a seperate tweet says Burks may play some, but Jazz don't feel he is ready for PG yet.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Well it looks like we get to see if Hayward or Burks can be a PG.

Burks definitely isnt ready to handle any PG duties. I'm interested to see how Hayward responds. Could be a huge game for him. I know C.J. can create off the dribble for himself and others, but he hasn't done it nearly enough for me to be confident enough to let him run the point either (I'd be willing to bet Ty feels the same way and we don't really see C.J. at the point). He's best playing off the ball.

Regardless of who's handling it, hopefully we can pound the Warriors inside and it doesn't matter.

Burks is the only one out of the 3 who I think can bring the ball up effectively by himself against PG fullcourt pressure.

 

[fallenchicken]

I'm actually excited. This should be a fun game. I've been desperate to see Hayward at the PG since we drafted him. Burks too.

 

[Beantown]

Jazz will have to live by my motto tonight: Pound it down low.

 

[Thee Idiotic Minivan K]

I think Ty wouldn't play Burks unless Bell, Harris, Haywood, CJ, and Tinsley were out.

Um, who is Haywood?

 

[Nate505]

Wow, so Tinsley who has been getting a whopping 5 minutes a game will be getting like 40 or so tonight...eek.

1 missed box out/rebound by Jeffy = 2 points

 

[Jerry Lundegaard]

please?

I'm watching on League Pass bruh. If you go to the chat on the homepage of Jazzfanz, you can read my stream of consciousness play-by-play. That's probably better than watching live to be honest with ya.

probably, but uh....Ill hold out for that link.

 

[Nate505]

Very impressed with Tinsley so far. He's made many great passes....honestly, I believe that Harris is the third best passing PG on this team.

 

[fallenchicken]

Tinsley to Hayward is the new Stockton to Malone.

 

[SojoDave]

Why can't Hayward post up on Monta Ellis?

 

[SojoDave]

Does it sound like Matt Harpring is yelling more than usual tonight?
