So stupid they didnt foul. I swear coaches are so dumb sometimes. Every coach should foul in that situation every time and almost none do.

Well, the refs never called a foul on that play, even though it looked like the Grizz were trying to foul them. This was the play where Lauri missed at the rim and the Grizzlies came away with the rebound.

Jaylen Brown and DeAndre Ayton are two gettable All-stars if we use up the picks.

I like both guys too. And we need a center.

This team is nuts.

Love seeing clarkson interacting with the fans.
Its all working, the court, the jerseys, the rebranding, the coach, the players, the fans. This is a lot of fun.

Clarkson’s passing and his game in general has been so much better this year he’s been amazing. I love him.

Me too. He has been fantastic.
My only criticism is a back handed criticism. I think he is the best finisher in the paint in the nba. I want him to go inside more even though he has been hitting the 3 pretty good (37.5%)

I would love it so much if he made the all-star game.

Which one. (I assume lauri)

Wonder what Miami would want for Jimmy Butler. He’d fit in perfectly with our guys.

It’s a long season and injuries usually happen. Our margin for error is thin. Clarkson or Lauri go out for a few weeks, and this team won’t win.

I heard the same comment about conley.
This team is deep

I think the team is deeper than a lot of us originally thought. But I dunno, Clarkson and Lauri Nowitski seem like our best players.

 

[The Thriller]

It’s pretty cool to see double digit scorers all over the place rather than having to rely on one guy to go nuclear.

 

[HeatCheck]

Hardy is letting them play free and easy. He's not putting the players in boxes while letting them play to their strengths. I see growth in these guys..even someone like JC who has already been in this league for a number of years is moving the ball much better. I like it.

 

[Coach Ellis]

I would use all the draft picks this year and would trade the remaining picks to pick up another star player. This team has enough good to it already.

No. Grizzlies have built their team by using those picks while they were trying to add to their stars. Jazz just need to pick BPA with every selection and fil out the team with new guys who can develop into guys like Brooks, Bane, Clarke and Aldama.

This was a tough game and I'm surprised we won since it was a B2B. Grizz showed up to play too. We played very well and juuuuust got the win. This team has way more guts than last season.

When you are up 4 with 20 seconds left and the other team has the ball i would never let them shoot a three. Foul every time. Jazz didnt foul and memphis hit a 3 to make it a one point game and give themselves a chance to win,

Up 4 with 20 seconds left make it a free throw shooting competition. You should always win that competition with a 4 point head start. Let them hit threes while you just shoot free throws give them a chance at the win.

In addition to Bane the Griz also have Santi Aldama that we traded Butler for. He is a starter for them. Another genius DL move.

Grizz have their "type" they like to draft. Productive upperclassmen that have produced at the college level although Aldama had produced in Europe. They've had a ton of success with that formula.

It’s a decent strategy that I think the Jazz could replicate pretty well. Take a couple of home run shots, but get solid, hard-working basketball players with every opportunity. Hope one elevated his game like Desmond Bane, Rudy Gobert or Jimmy Butler.

Yes, definitely Lauri. I don't think anyone else on the team has any chance at all of making it.

I was probably one of those dudes.

I was a staunch Quin defender up until near the end of last season when his passionate press conference about how the Jazz have no problems in the clutch made me realize that all the iso-garbage was literally by design (Mitchell has been passing the ball well and often in the clutch for the Cavs, FFS!!!!!)

Plus, this season, seeing what a team without a lot of good individual defenders can do when they're actually allowed to be aggressive on defense has been a revelation.

What if QS was the heart of our problems? What would Hardy have accomplished with last year's talent? What if we really are legit and Ainge just flips the picks instead of further dismantling and uses them to bring talent right back.

So many pleasant surprises with this team.

You mean like Butler, Dok and Agbaji?
