    Only when the Jazz are negatively affected. Sort of like the Durant foul. Yes, he grazed the ball first, but it didn't stop Lauri feom raising up and still getting a good shot off, when Durant clearly fouled him. I understand ball contact first in certain situations, like a continuous swipe, but...

    It is what he does. Crazy misses or turnovers that lead to easy fast breaks for the opponent. It is mind numbing.

    Lauri's Defense

    It seems like his interior D is similar to last year. At his length he could be better. Like most of the roster, I assume his 3 pt defense is down, a lot of that attributable to the zone this year.

    Opponent 3 pt shooting

    Here are some tracking defense 3pt stats: Collins man shoots 5.2% better than his opponent. Lauri+3.2%. Sexton +1.6%. Keyonte's +5.5%. Clarkson +2.9% Kessler +1.3% Dunn +1.0% THT +5.8% Sensabaugh -0.6 But smaller sample size Hendricks at +9.6, but smaller sample size. I will say the...

    Do you watch the G League games? I do. And he bricks a lot of shots. I'd love for him to him to be a consistently good 3 pt shooter, but he's not, and he is at 31% this year. https://stats.gleague.nba.com/player/1630548/traditional/

    31.8% this year and 25.9% career is high 30s? Next you'll start spouting how THT is good too. They need to turn off the internet connection over there in the looney bin.

    One thing to note is Juzang's shooting last night was outside his norm. He bricks a lot of open shots in the G League. If he could hit the 3 consistently, he could be an NBA player, but that can be said for a lot of people...

    World travel

    No, but I know a guy who went there to see an old girlfriend who owned a bar there. Place was run down, entertainment was seeing who could drink the most without passing out. Snow everywhere. On his first night there a bunch of thugs broke in, attempting to steal some jewelry from the guy's ex...

    Comparable rookie years to Keyonte's. (I thought I had linked just the PER 36 min section of each player) Just look at the rookie year Per 36 min

    The Jazz have some good "potential" pieces. All 3 picks from the 23 draft look decent. I Key and Brice both need to improve on D. Brice and Taylor need as much in game experience as possible at this point. Ideally we will see as little as possible of JC, JCo and THT. I'd love to see Preston get...

    Jazz sign Kenneth Lofton to 3 year NG deal

    Yep, in a end of season game where neither team played starters or even tried (throw-away game). I think he can provide value by helping Kessler learn to play better defense from their scrimmages/practices as Lofton is good at the rim. Can't shoot or defend, which is why he was available.

    Keyonte was like that when he first starting playing in the NBA. The speed and pace of opponents needs to be adjusted. He was definitely making some bad passes, but at least he was trying to keep the ball moving and not overdribbling into the defense like the team's main turnover machine.

    Are you a DVE Actor?

    I would if I knew the context. Missing kid in neighborhood? Criminal on loose in area? Sure, take a look on my property, inside and out as needwd. I would not be okay with forced entry without consent or probable cause and a warrant.
