Jazz VS Dallas Game Thread - WE WON!!!!!!

Rudy had an offensive rebound in the first quarter and had already released the shot for the putback when they blew the whistle calling him for over the back.
Then on the foul they called on him on the zaza, drive they waited until zaza missed and rudy had the rebound and was starting to make the outlet pass before calling rudy for the foul.

Those may have both been fouls but damn they were late.

They rush in games though too. Due to guys actually guarding them.

Also, the three point competition has the best shooters in the entire nba. I don't think they all play for the mavs.

Is Raymond felton one of the best three point shooters in the nba and I just never knew? How about d-will? What is wes Matthews shooting from three this year?


Bawse saying that the mavs were making more threes than normal, ooen or not, was correct

Bawse was saying "They don't even shoot 70% from 3 in the 3 point contest", which was a silly point because the Mavs were shooting 52.9% from 3 at the time, not 70%, and when really good 3 point shooters are being left wide open, 52.9% is not strange at all.
 
Weathered the storm guys...only down 7 at half is well within reach for our squad. Coach Q do your thing and motivate these boys. Let's get that 7th!

I think we were talking about shooting the ball quickly. Something players in real life nba games do and guys in the three point competition do.
 
I personally think the maverick just got lucky/hot. They hit 0 2 pointers In the first, which is usually a not a good thing. We obviously need to defend a bit better and Hayward and favors getting some buckets would be nice.

That's fine. I was discussing whether players easily shoot 70% from three when they are open... which is what the discussion was about.

If the argument was whether or not guys shoot 52.9% from three when open then I wouldn't have got into the discussion
 
The law of large numbers says we can't shoot poorly all game and that Dallas has to cool down a bit as well. Hopefully the better team wins. Not the washed up saggy balled Dallas team....

All I know is that they were 6/9 at one point and it seemed like they couldn't miss.

If you were watching the first quarter and the beginning of the second and saying 'yep, this seems about normal.' Then I guess we have nothing more to talk about.

Plus it's completely different grabbing a ball and shooting from a rack than catch and shoot but this doesn't even matter. Jazz give up one of the worst (or best for the team) percentages from 3. Carlisle is exploiting it.

I would shoot better grabbing a ball from a rack (since it's not moving and I don't even have to catch it) than a ball being passed to me (sometimes coming fast, sometimes slow. Sometimes high, sometimes low)
 
We also had a hard time getting going in the first. We couldn't even move without refs calling a foul. Got in the bonus early.

I still stand by my statement that in practice, yes, they hit about 70-75% of their threes, when they shoot one, the ball boy passes another, and so forth...totally uncontested. That's all I was saying. Maybe that's just for the top half of the league in shooters and not the average of all but still, I think a ton of guys can do that.
 
Why is Booker playing over Lyles? I can only see the box score right now but what the heck?
