Jazz vs Clippers: Round 2

[kabenac]

Should have won this one....

 

[yamers]

ouch! thats not burke we are used to!

 

[Goodluckchuck]

So I have to say I am happy even with a loss. Damn we are looking good! Two broken plays and two 3 pointers not taken and we take this game. Bright days ahead my friends!

 

[Fabtrey]

lol. gobert.

 

[nateboz]

With Burks the Jazz would have won.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Well that sucks. Really weird for Burke to have such a bad game from the FT line... at least he got there though.

 

[Flc]

As far as losses go, this is one I'll take.

 

[NUMBERICA]

How does Crawford not start? I've always wondered?

Because he is the scorer-off-the-bench incarnate (defensive liability, shoots a lot of shots whether he should or not, good enough scorer to do that on the second-tier but not the first).

 

[Jazz4ever]

I think we would have won with Burks. Clips were playing this like a playoff game.

 

[The Midnight]

Good loss.


The young guys should learn from this.

I challenge you to watch Clark when the game stops. Timeouts, foul shots, end of quarters. Watch him on the bench when he isn't playing. Watch what he does when pressure gets high.

I see something worth keeping there. I want him on the Jazz.

I'm just talking about on court. I don't dare to evaluate locker room influence and stuff like that.

 

[Mr. McGibblets]

Damn. Really fun nonetheless. Good night all! I must admit that the preseason is getting me even more excited and hopeful about the season.

 

[mellow]

Yea, not sure what he was doing there. Was looking over his shoulder at Coach Quinn too much?

Do you not understand the luxury of having a scorer with your 2nd unit?

 

[AlaskanAssassin]

I know people will be disappointed that we lost, but I actually think this was the best game we have played all preseason. We are going to surprise some people this year. Are we this years "Phoenix Suns"?

 

[Fabtrey]

How does Crawford not start? I've always wondered?

he is a perfect 6th man. tremendous energy, sick 1 on 1 skills, and an instant offense.

honestly, i really don't mind burks being our 6th man for good. why not? we will still give him 30 min anyway.

 

[cowhide]

Gritty performance from the Jazz, but someone might have wanted to guard Crawford. That guy always kills the Jazz. Hayward played great. I was wondering why Exum wasn't in the game instead of Clark. I thought Exum played very good defense when he was in.

 

[Goodluckchuck]

Do you not understand the luxury of having a scorer with your 2nd unit?

Yes I do. And I agree with you. Good to have a scorer with your 2nd unit. I just have always felt he was good enough to be a starter. Didn't realize he was a bad defender.

 

[mellow]

I'm just talking about on court. I don't dare to evaluate locker room influence and stuff like that.

Sure thing, I sort of agree with you there. But my point is you Gotta have glue guys, and he seems to be a really good one. By February Exum will consume all his minutes.

Because neither Ian Clark or Rodney Hood are near average NBA starters. JJ Reddick is.
