Game 4: 11/3/2014 Jazz at Clippers. 8:30PM on ROOT

[Doublea]

Best lost so far.... wish the refs hadn't bailed out the clippers so much.. Jazz probably should've won, but good effort.

 

[fishonjazz]

I woulda been on here giving Corbin hell if he hadn't done HACK-A-JORDAN in that scenario. We were obviously down a couple of possessions... shoulda been doing everything to gain a couple of extra possessions.

True

 

[Dr. Jones]

Also really hated Quin taking Favors out with 2 fouls in the 1st half. Really put us in a hole and Favors was never able to get into the flow of the game.

This.

And as I bitched about several times already.. we had a horrible rebounding effort at the end. Literally 2 boards in the final 6 minutes. Inexcusable.

 

[Revolution 9]

Do we count this as another moral victory in LA?

^and this.

Favors has always had a hard time getting into the flow if he gets gum in the gears early. I hope Quin learns to adjust to this aspect of his game.

favors will bounce back on wednesday. he will rape the cavs

 

[VINYLONE]

Good game.

Yuh.

Good game - way to show some guts. Got to be better down the stretch defensively, and for the whole game as well. We are playing some really good teams. I think we still win 35+ if we stay healthy. Trey needs to step up starting now though. For real.

Yeah, man. Is it me or did TB look great in the preseason? I thought he had turned some sort of corner and when the regular season started he kind of regressed. Right?

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

I think the coaches just figured on lettin Grififn get his and guarding the other players. I mean for all intents and porpoises, the strategy was working. The were on the road and pretty close to that win even with two of our starters not getting their averages.

Either way, good game by the young guys.

Yeah, part of the point of that strat is that towards the end of the game you start doubling the star and let the ice cold role players who havent gotten shots all game be tested in crunch time when they have no shooting rhythm. I mean at least send some soft doubles to get him thinking.

 

[VINYLONE]

Nah, it was a moral loss but a foundational one.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

Great game... Clippers got those home team calls tonight. Kanter showed up... Props to him.

Clippers are tough. Now that Blake can shoot I'm not sure how you stop that ugly *******.

Black Jesus 6pts ,4rebs,4assist,4 turnovers

CP3 13 pts ,10 rebs,12 assists,2 to

this is the difference in the game

 

[fishonjazz]

Kanter had some really nice moments tonight. Encouraging

Kanter had some really nice moments tonight. Encouraging that he might actually elicit some trade value

It works when Griffin is content on shooting long range jumpers like in the first quarter. But he deceives you, and always goes to his much more deadly post game in the 4th.

 

[fishonjazz]

Now that Blake can shoot I'm not sure how you stop that ugly *******.

This.
He is a handful

 

[nateboz]

After tonight Hood, Booker and Exum have earned minutes. When they were on the floor the defense actually looked promising.

 

[enchilada_style]

I'm satisfied.

 

[GVC]

Yeah. On balance Kanter was pretty good tonight. Was a bit surprised Quin didn't stick with him to close the game, especially with Favors defending Jordan, not double teaming and not really getting touches on O. Kanter could have provided that and potentially kept the defense a bit more honest.

 

[Doublea]

Man, really wanted that game. It'll make our players want it even more though.

 

[Dr. Jones]

.. and needed rebounding.

But we're all hindsighting it a bit.
