Jazz at Hawks, starts in 15 mins (22 Jan 2018, 5:30 pm)

[LoPo]

All opponents have to do in the first 6 minutes is guard Gobert and then let Rubio shoot. We run every play to Gobert the first 6 minutes. When we can't get it to him, Rubio shoots.

I’m amazed (though not surprised) at all the Burks hate for this game. Everyone else on the team sucked. Burks leads the team in scoring (17 points on 10 shots. 5-10 from the field. 1-1 from 3. 6-7 from the line) in only 23 minutes. Had 3 deflections and a steal, drew multiple offensive fouls while on defense and his man scored very little and he had 1 turnover.

Hayward tells jazz he wants to play with Rubio.

Jazz trades for Rubio.

Hayward leaves.

Rubio shoots 1-8.

I hate Hayward.

Who is responsible for trotting out this lineup game after game?

Garbage points. Also sleepwalked on defense a few times.

I'm with you Jack. The plan is so predictable.

Did Hayward ever say that? I thought Hayward was BFF's with Hill. DL just needed a starting PG so he could show Hayward he was going to spend money to field a decent team after being so cheap except for Gordon's walk year. Rubio was the only PG Lindsey could acquire before the cap space expired. Lindsey is reaping what he sowed.

Lindsey not agreeing to an extension with Hill as part of the trade was moronic. You just don't waste a lottery pick on a rental.

Rudy demands his touches. Jazz try to accomodate their "star"

 

[enchilada_style]

This team probably still blows with Rubio out of the starting lineup. We just hope they suck a little less.

Lindsey is smarter than that, he got played by Nerdwards agent

 

[kabenac]

Well... at least Burks finished strong.

Burks was just fine. I’d very much like to see a starting lineup with DM, Burks, Hood, Favors and Gobert just for fun. Then, I’d do my best to move Favors, Burks, JJ and Rubio. Bring back a couple of good pieces and build for the future around Gobert, Mitchell, Hood, Exum, 2018 Draft Pick

I think everyone would agree

The thing on Burks is that he usually plays good, but when he ****s up it just usually looks so bad or it's so obvious.

Like getting beat backdoor and not reacting until the player scores or airballing a 10' floater.

It's called taking a risk bud. It wasn't moronic. Sometimes thing just dont work out.

Burks also has some bad mistakes when the game is kind of in the balance at times. When a teams going on a run on us, it seems like he will sometimes drive in throw up a wild shot and basically turn it over. Some mistakes hurt worse than others. Burks just seem to hurt pretty bad.

Garbage points. Also sleepwalked on defense a few times.

Like 5 of his points were in garbage time lol. I believe he scored 11 on the first half. His defense was fine. I think people want to blame his defense when it isn't always his fault. One example: one play Oneal completely lost bazemore. Burks was guarding #2. The ball goes to bazemore who is wide open for a three (cause Oneal totally lost his man). Burks sees bazemore getting the ball and runs at him and bazemore hits the three.
If you weren't paying close attention it would look like Burks fell asleep when it was actually oneal.

Also, there was a stretch where Schroder was destroying mitchell over and over. Burks guarded him twice and shut him down both times. Then they put neto on schroder and he destroyed neto too.

Burks chased bellinelli around screens a few times and bellinelli took advantage and scored but burks defense was good tonight. He took care of the ball. He scored very very efficiently, had multiple deflections defensively, drew multiple offensive fouls on the defensive end, and made some good passes and didn' ball hog.

He played a good game.

Whats your point? He played well in non garbage minutes on both ends and then played well in garbage minutes on both ends. Played a good 23 minutes. Some garbage time and some not. He wasnt the problem tonight.
