Game Thread Dec 23, 2020: Jazz at Trail Blazers

[JazzMan4Life]

Dumbest foul call of the game right there on Gobert. Pushed off before making his move? Stupid. Refs playing the spread?

Nah he pushed off, even I am willing to admit that.

Shaq and Oni were briefly in there for defense. That's smart and the Jazz are deep.

Quin needs to tell clarkson that if he thinks he has a decent look then it's ok to pull the trigger.

Yeah he's too hesitant, amirite?

It happens on literally every play... great time for them to call it.

I look forward to arguing about Favors with you again.

I'm not mad at him now. Cause he's not the starter or being paid 20 mill a year

Hard not to like that first half.

 

[JimLes]

Can we just talk about how much we've missed Derrick? 2 for 2, +19 in 9 minutes and can comfortably guard Dame on a switch. I already feel like Ed Davis was a bad dream.

Niang guarding Melo is such good bait.

This.
I love everytime melo shoots

Whoever put together the defensive strategy on Lillard deserves a free latte.

100%. He could take note from Joe Ingles.

Quin also running offensive/defensive possession substitutions and it’s not even the end of the game. Good stuff.

And hopefully Stotts’ early challenge will help Quin know he can actually use his challenges and doesn’t have to save them.

Maybe after DL trades away all our second rounders, we could start using our supply of unused challenges as throw-ins for trades.

what a great half of basketball. For all the talk of how the young players have made progress, not one of them played in the first half. Not complaining because the jazz are kicking butt. Just saying it was surprising. DM woke up finally. Royce needs to be on the bench. Joe, favors, JC automatically make our bench stronger. I rather have Morgan play the PF than Royce.

Dat Bogey Mentality. . .

They look great, but Dames been terrible and I hope he doesn’t explode in the 2nd half.

He was solid and big improvement over Ed who was like the worst player in the nba last year (no exaggeration) but that bench unit was spearheaded by JC doing his thing.

Faves is a winner. Always was.

JC's interpretation of "decent" ranges pretty wildly game to game though.

 

[JimLes]

Also, please more minutes for Carmelo in the second half.
