GAME THREAD: 12/9/13, Blazers at Jazz, 7 pm local

This reminds me of the time Favors went for 23 points against the bucks and then didn't see anytime in the 4th. (Burks goes for 20 and doesn't see the end of the game).
 
If anybody can give me a credible reason why Jefferson plays so much and Burks can't get more time when he is playing well I would really appreciate it. Playing Jefferson so much makes me want to push a fire Corbin thread.
 
Burke rebounds his position extremely well.

I also like his Jeff Malone running jump shots since he seems comfortable with them and he makes them.
 
I think your looking for things that aren't there. Did Aldridge make a couple of incredible fade away shots yes. Did he make more shots over Evans? yes. Did Kanter play good position defense? Yes. Did Kanter stop Aldridge from establishing position? Yes. I saw real improvement on the defensive end from Kanter tonight.

Who's Aldrich?

Batum is bigger and better than Matthews and would abuse him even more.

Can't put him on Lillard since who is Burke going to guard, then?

Actually, Matthews is stronger -- Burks is 6-6, Batum 6-8 but not a physical player. In any case, let us create the mismatch by forcing them to guard Burks because they weren't having much luck earlier. So, instead of being defensive and passive, you become offensive and take it to them. We have the home court so that usually favors the offensive and aggressive team.
