ladies and gentlemen, your opening night starting pg......

lol

 

[Getting Traded]

Looks like Lucas will be starting opening night.

 

[mellow]

More details; it was his right "index" finger. Which is even worse.

How is that worse? I thought right index fingers only affected shooters.

 

[Doublea]

At least Clark is playing all right.

 

[mellow]

And still no Lester Hudson?

 

[slc]

So Lucas starts opening night
Who backs him up?

 

[Qman]

I am less and less impressed with Machado

It sounds like it will affect ball handling too and also its at his shooting hand.

I'm totally talking through my streetball experiences btw. Not an expert.

Yes this was one of those ugly games we expected this year. The Clippers are really good and deep and legitimateI contenders. Too bad about Burke, I hope it isn't too long before he is back. I hope he doesn't need surgery.

Agreed. He was pretty awful tonight

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Favors played like ***. He looks like a defensive center and not much more. He looks heavy and slow.

 

[candrew]

Sloan from the stands had a look on his face like he just watched his grandson crap his pants on stage during the school play.

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Clearly the Jazz are tanking. There really is no debate on this. Biedrins sucks as expected. Jeremy Evans is getting too many minutes. There's nobody of note on our bench, and we're not even playing Gobert.

 

[just because]

Why didn't Gobert play?

 

[Goodluckchuck]

Favors played like ***. He looks like a defensive center and not much more. He looks heavy and slow.

I noticed that as well. Seems a lot slower. Out of shape? Kanter also looks out of shape.

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

The positive I take away from this is that there wasn't anything positive.

I also think some of the guys were tired from playing last night and traveling from Boise, however that worked out.

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

I noticed that as well. Seems a lot slower. Out of shape?

His weight is supposed to be up to 263. It might help his rebounding a bit, but he doesn't have much mobility on offense, which he sorely needs.

 

[Revolution 9]

"Why didn't Gobert play?"

 

[candrew]

Not going to dwell on the game too much tonight. Jazz will be lucky to beat The Clippers once this year but they're not as bad as they played tonight. Kind of like how GSW played on Tuesday. Probably a better idea to reserve your back-to-backs until the end of the preseason. Sucks about Burke - Jazz will need to pick someone up - Tinsley I'm guessing. Machado is not an NBA player.

What the hell is Brian Cook doing on an NBA team - worst body in a Jazz uniform since Amaechi

 

[orangello]

Why didn't Gobert play?

Corbin.
