Agreed, but Millsap could have gotten his third foul in the last two minutes very easily since the entire Raptors' team knew he was running away from contact. As I just said, it was pure luck he didn't get it. The unit that got us the big lead was a sight to behold on the offensive end. Beautiful ball movement!!!

Kanter is the most irreplaceable player right now with both Al and favors out. The small lineup is working. Kanter is young and still trying to learn to play big minutes with out fouling good move by Ty.

I'm talking about his two fouls. I admit that that group that finished the quarter was awesome offensively and energywise!
 
Kudos to Corbin for playing 3 wings, a PG and Millsap and speeding up the game. It takes away the Raptors size advantage, and they don't seem comfortable at that pace. It's impressive that the Jazz would be winning the battle of the boards with Jefferson and Favors out.

Why in the hell did Corbin stick his thumb up his *** there with Millsap and Marvin having 2 fouls each. Pure luck that they didn't get another foul!

Small lineup was working. What if Kanter comes back and picks up two quick ones, you'd be bitching about Ty bringing back Kanter with the small lineup working. We are always complaining that Ty doesn't stick with the hot hand, well there ya go. We are winning stop bitching!

Jazz play small ball. It does not make sense for Raptors to put JV in unless they would run offense through paint. But since they like to chuck from the outside then they matchup and play small as well.

I saw that as Corbin did with Kanter, but this question asked in overall. Not his current presence on the floor.

Seriously, what other options did he have? Corbin's "great coaching" comes only when he doesn't have any options. He didn't try this line up until Evans got his 3rd foul and Kanter needed a rest.

A real BIG-MAN would crash a small paint like the Utah Jazz are playing, but JV is just to soft.

Iam the only one who has a boner after this passing ? BIG game by the Jazz...

DeMarre Carroll can rebound the ball extremely well for his position. When he hits shots, he is so fun to watch. That unit that finished the quarter was wonderful in every way except for defense in the paint!
 
Having 2 or 3 fouls in the first half isn't a big deal. Usually players get pulled if they have 2 fouls in the 1st quarter or 3 fouls in the 2nd quarter.

Absolutely not. I am a tad bit dizzy because of lack of oxygen and the permabone! I forgot how much I enjoy watching an offensive team that trusts the pass.

There's truth here. I'd like to see Marvin Williams get the back-up PF minutes ahead of Evans. I'd also like to see a bit of Burks here.
 
Kanter had to avoid contact becausse of the foul trouble of the other bigs, now he can play just more aggressively on both ends of the floor.

Agreed, but when you have two key big men out, you might have to be a bit more conservative. And considering how much Millsap impacted the game, you can not take chances.
