Jazz - Nuggets: Round 1

We should have challenged the backcourt. Yes, the 8 second count was close and really garbage call to make at that point in the game. But the backcourt on Murray when he touched it in the front court then carried it into the backcourt was a huge missed opportunity for Quin to challenge. Murray tied the game on the possession. Had we won that challenge, we're up 3 with the ball with 40 seconds left.
I don't think no-calls can be challenged.
 
Was it bogus? But yeah, strangely, that felt like the game to me when it happened.

If it was bogus, that's the perfect time to challenge.

Also... why did they keep Ingles on Murray? He was on skates while Murray went OFF.
I can tell it really hurt because Denver hit a 3 pt after the violation. Man I am totally bummed about losing this game. I feel awful for DM. Kid just tried to will his team to victory. I was not surprised we lost in OT because our guys were gassed. Jazz need more SF/PF who can play defense and shoot some. Oh well I highly doubt Denver is going to make 22 3pts again but I doubt DM is going to score 57 pts again. That has to be some playoff record for the Jazz.
 
How good or bad is Joe Harris on defense? Do we have the full MLE to sign him? Because we need another legitimate nba player who can shoot/score.

It is a playoff record for the jazz. Previous record was Malone with 50
 
Was it bogus?

No.

Anywho, it hurts to lose, but I feel pretty good about how we played. Continue to have faith in Morgan, he looked great. Be willing to throw some different stuff at Murray.
 
And Denver is shooting the 3 out of their minds. They won't do that every game. But we just gave this one away. Man did this suck. The whole OT was "here, have the ball". They didn't beat us, we just gave it away. Handed it to them on a silver platter while gobbling their nobs. **** me. One of the worst OT performances I have seen.
 
You're absolutely wrong. The problem is, we only have 1 Royce. Denver has 3 or 4 with Grant, Craig, Millsap, etc. They have waves of switchable SF/PF type players who can hit the occasional 3.

Royce is golden at less than $10. We just need a few more instead of $30+ on Conley.

Well, that leads me to two questions on the moves going into the offseason

1 - Should we prioritize keep Clarkson instead of looking for another 3nD wing if we're unable (or just unwillingfull due to our fo stubbornness) to move on from Conley and not in a financial condition to go into LT ?

2 - How much redundant Ingles and Bojan are, especially on defense, to worth combined up to Conley level of contract ?
 
We can’t go 15 rounds with this team. They’re just too much bigger, more physical, and deeper than us. We need to deliver our tko earlier.
Yep, like by not giving away a backcourt time violation, among other stupid mistakes. **** me.
