Burks is shooting 58% from the field and 75% from three so far this year.

He needs to play 20 minutes a night... even the bad game he had he was 0-2... he needs the leash to play through 0-2... we need his offense.
 
As long as we're taking turns jinxing the team, I think this is the game where everybody realizes this Utah team is for real.

We're coming off that dominating win against OKC, and our defense got a taste of blood. I think the team as a whole bought in, and between that and the fact we played this team in the playoffs last year, I think we'll be ready to open up a can of whoop-***.

Blake is their biggest weapon, but we have guys who can frustrate the bajesus out of him.

Honestly, the only thing that can stop us against this team is the refs. If they are calling things tight on the defensive end, they have the ability to take us out of our game. If they let us play, I think we're going to see another feeding frenzy for the Jazz sharks.

I read somewhere that the league is going to concentrate this year on officiating the offense instead of the defense, which is why we have seen more traveling calls this year. Hopefully they stick to that consistently instead of the usual back and forth officiating we've seen over the years.
 
Already up to 104 posts and its 3 hours before the game starts. What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sees obey him??

Word.
We need ingles though imo. He is much more crucial to team success than I ever thought he would be.

What's his 3 point percentage anyway? Gotta be crazy high.

if you dont play defense you dont play for quin. Thats the menality, and burks was yanked vs the wolves because he went full derp mode for 4mins straight. He did much better vs the thunder, lets see if he can play like that again.
 
Joe Ingles has an efg% of 84.6%, against pretty good competition. Obviously it has just been 3 games, but, seriously. . .

Remember all the noise about Mitchell from that annoying poster who's name I can't remember?

Here's a chart showing DM to be the 2nd best rookie defensively so far and about middle of the pack offensively, regardless of his shooting. Yep, definitely time to declare him to be Tyreke Evans.

His shot selection was poor that game. He took shots he shouldn't have and passed up ones he should have, one of which ended up being a turnover. He still seems tentative about shooting.

Doesn't that show him as second worse offensively and just average defensively?
