Who is ready for some lock down defense from Raja Bell?

loss.

Why?

Cuz in basketball, the goal is to get the ball into the hoop. This team is a poor shooting team. Sometimes, someone like Hayward, Millsap, or CJ might get hot. But most of the time, we'll see this team consistently clank and clank.

Until we get some guys that can bomb away from the outside, this team will struggle to be above .500
 
Back to back in Denver? This is going to be brutal, count on another +20 loss.
 
Actually this one is a little better. Hopefully it mirrors the Jazz's performance tomorrow...at least in terms of improvement.
 
Better get used to it. Jazz are gonna suck on the road this year.
happens to all young teams.
Look at Sac. They beat the lakers at home last night, then laid an egg tonight in Porty.
 
more like Jazz 85, Nuggets 110:/ ... Jazz are just slow and so far very boring, I did not see any of that youth or athletic advantage. Tomorrow we will see run and gun athletic team but it will be not Jazz.
 
This could get ugly real fast if the Nuggets are hitting their 3 point shots. It will be interesting to see if the vets can actually show up this time. I want to see more Favors, Kanter, Howard, Evans, Burks and Hayward.
 
Man, I miss when people actually took time to make an awesome game thread. meh

...perhaps when this team demonstrates some semblance of actually playing basketball, they will be deserving of what you call an "awesome" game thread. Right now, this team doesn't deserve ANYTHING more than a head shaking from side to side indicating pathetic, pathetic, pathetic!
 
I actually thınk we may win this one, even if not win, it will be a head to head game
 
1. Can't be worse than game 1 :)

2. I would like to play this game with an 8 man rotation (unless there is foul trouble).

- We played too many people in the 1st half, contributing to the poor shooting and contributing to no flow. Heck, we had no camp, even more reason to establish your top 8.

- Whoever earned minutes in practice should get them.
- Playing 11 deep by half (12 if you count Evans 10 seconds) is just ridiculous. It Demotivates everyone as they feel they are playing Rec Leauge Bball again where everyone gets to play half the game.
 
The thing that pissed me off was that Jefferson was jogging back on D each time. He gave fouls and layups or forced other players to cover for him. Corbin needs to bench Jefferson until he sprints back on D each time.


I think Harris and Howard need to play together some. Either lets start Howard and bring Bell off the bench or stagger our rotations.

Watson and Evans need 5 minutes on the court together every game. We get 2 alley-op dunks every time.

We need try Favors in pick and rolls more often. He isn't ready to get it done in the post.
