EDIT: It's NBA.com's power rankings.
So based on last night's barely 4-page game thread most of our members got off the train at the last stop. So let's grab several bottles from the bar car, stretch our legs, and cheers the **** out of our future.
"The Jazz rank seventh offensively, and some of their best players haven’t been particularly sharp. Donovan Mitchell’s effective field goal percentage (45.3%) and free throw rate (18.1 attempts per 100 shots from the field) are both career-low marks. Joe Ingles had been pretty quiet (coming off the bench again) until totaling 24 points, 15 rebounds and eight assists over the last two games. And Bojan Bogdanovic had shoot poorly until breaking outwith 28 points on 10-for-13 (6-for-7 from 3-point range) in San Antonio on Sunday.
Rudy Gobert has been characteristically efficient and Mike Conley has been the real offensive star, averaging a team-high 20.3 points on an effective field goal percentage of 61%. He did the Clippers dirty early and often on Friday and then drained a huge 3 (off a how-did-he-see-him feed from Mitchell) after the Jazz almost blew a 20-point lead. Given the way last season went, it may be for the best that Conley is the guy finding his groove early. And if everybody else eventually finds theirs, the Jazz are going to be tough to beat."
