I know what I saw. Gobert being replaced by Booker is what allowed Lebron to take the game by himself. Hence the win.

All respect to Gobert, but I think this game was decided by Lebron. I dont think Gobert in would have changed much. It's not like they were actually scoring at the rim, they where jsut getting a lot of foul calls by driving. With the way the refs were calling it, I dont know how much would have changed with Gobert.
 
most impressive part: seeing our perseverance, from the 1st quarter right down to the waning seconds. We simply did not give up. It was crazy to me. I don't think i've ever seen anything like it. The Cavs kept pushing the lead up to 10, but we never gave up. Stuck with it, Killer Bs killed it off the bench, and we gave ourselves a chance to win. That's all you can ask for man. 4 points within the defending Finalists, featuring the best player since Jordan? Come on y'all.
 
Lol, bunch of negative nancies here.

Way to go Jazz! Ya'll fought! Shows grit, mental toughness and heart that have been missing from this team. Learn from this and improve. Take this disappointment and anger out on Miami on Thursday!

GO JAZZ!!!!! This season rocks!

No, it was a 2 point lead. Check the game log. Don't let Krakdol misinform you.

Regardless. I think Rudy is one of the jazz better players and gives us a better chance to win. I think his injury hurt the jazz

The Cavs went on a mini-run two minutes before Gobert twisted his ankle, and cut a 9 point lead to 2. These things happen in games, regardless of who's on the floor. Gobert going out changed the game, for sure. Lebron started having an easy lane to the basket on almost every play.

Bizarre that you guys are criticizing our offense. We just put up 110 on the Cavs. Look at how ****ing balanced our team's scoring was today. No, go look at the boxscore. Every ****ing player we depend on (minus Neto) had huge contributions on O. We lost this game when we let Mo Williams drain 29 on us. We can deal wit Bron and Love going bananas, but not Mo. Those first two quarters hurt us. Again-- learning experience. There's so much to be proud of from watching this game.

I would say the 3rd quarter hurt us more than any other. All the foul calls. I feel like we should have had a 4-6 point lead heading into the 4th with a better called 3rd quarter. That would have given us a bigger cushion against the ensuing Lebron explosion.

The 1st half was just hot shooting by the Cavs.

Gobert is what makes him harder to drive, even when he doesn't block anything.

No need to score at the rim to be bothered by Gobert.
 
Snyder inexplicably pulling Burks at about the 8 minute mark was a turning point. Not sure if it was the turning point, but he had been the best player on the team to that point and that's too big a point in the game to take him out for no reason. They were up by 6 or 7 at the time, and I think were down when he returned.

It's not really inexplicable. He had played about 10 minutes and I'm sure Quin wants to use him to close the game, he has to have a little rest. It's the worst thing about having your 6th man be a game closer, you have to find a rest time for him that is kind of awkward.

Anything to blame Burke. SMH. He only was blocked twice and the only bad decision was the second shot, either way that wasn't the turning point.

I didn't blame Burke for the loss, please don't put words in my mouth if your are gonna quote me. Trey played a solid game. Someone asked about what changed the momentum and in my opinion there were two key moments...Trey getting blocked in consecutive possessions (I said "like" for a reason, I couldn't remember with certainty if there was a third one) and LBJ and-one. The crowd went nuts and it went downhill from there. The momentum already shifted before Rudy's injury. I'm happy with the effort and that we had a chance until the end.

They were rolling and Burks doesn't get tired in games. He's like Stockton.

Burks can't play for 24 minutes straight dog.
 
Yeah, 9 games out of 10 Mo Williams doesn't give the Cavs that. They played well enough tonight to beat anyone, and the Jazz stuck right there with them on the road. Going to be a fun year as long as Rudy isn't hurt too badly. . .

Burks had been playing for a while at that point... I thought it was good to give him a quick breather before putting him back in. Coach Snyder is masterful in his rotations, and riding hot hands.
