Okay so someone help me understand why teams don't call a timeout then run an inbounds play to get a real shot off before the half? I feel like I'm crazy or an idiot cuz I don't get it.

Coaches apparently get a bonus for unused timeouts. Oh and challenges.

He felt fine. He even said so after shoot-around. He thought he was playing.

The Jazz surprised everyone and said nope. One day after he wasn't even on the injury report.

They decided to be overly cautious because we're playing Memphis.

Maybe, but that's means he's still injured to some level. I'm happy for them to take it safe. That's smart for him and the team.
 
Ugh.. Shaq will gloat for 10 years straight about our team and players being frauds if we can't beat the Grizz in a series. Disgusting

Go back and watch the initial run the Grizz put up in the 2nd quarter. The Grizz know how to screw up the Jazz flow. Rudy was doing the right screens, the Jazz players weren't running there guys through him. Clarkson, Ingles and Bogey kept backing off the Rudy picks and it is working out.

Frankly if we are hitting our 3s we are substantially in control of this game. That's like 4 more 3s we would have, as well as saving the points that Memphis scored off of those long rebounds, because they were feasting on The fast break on those. Plus we lost focus on defense almost entirely. It doesn't help that the refs are basically not calling anything.

If the Jazz lose this series to a 9 seed, then they are eternal frauds until they somehow win a title.

League is different now and players are wusses. Kobe won a title playing with a broken finger...

Teams are smarter now. Also playing with a broken finger doesn't run much of a risk of get a much worse injury. It's not about playing through pain.

It's best to make sure he's all the way ready.

All the way ready sounds like he is mostly ready and could play but they don't think they need him against the grizzlies so they will sit him to be extra cautious.

I see.
So when the jazz wing players struggle with Rudy on court it's the jazz wing players fault

When the jazz wing players struggle with favors on court then it's favors fault.

Makes sense.

Let Ingles and Conley run their pick n roll. Take the ball out of JC/Bojan/Royce’s hand. And we can still win this thing.
