Official Game Thread: "Uh oh, it's Magic" at Jazz...Saturday, 4/21, 8:30pm MT

I don't think it's anyone's fault this quarter. The Magic can't miss!

 

[BYE]

One thing is very apparent about this game: the Magic are running almost every single offensive play against some sort of high screen with Al Jefferson. He cannot defend this at all, and it is putting a lot of pressure on the rest of the team. Watch it next half. If he cannot defend these high screens, we will lose the game.

First time I've ever responded to my own post, but nearly every play is run with a screen from Al's man. He doesn't help and they get wide-open jumpers. Hayward is pissing me off; he doesn't seemed engaged at all, and this is partly Ty's fault for not making the proper adjustments.

I can't believe we're getting torched by Jameer Nelson. What we need to do is run on them - they have no depth and if we tire their starters out they'll have noone decent to put in for production....

Same **** different day...giving up wide open threes

 

[BYE]

**** Corbin! He is such a coward!

 

[Dr. Jones]

Jefferson's points are not worth it.

 

[The Norm]

And this is why I want Al Jefferson's dumb *** OFF this team.

Once his man sets a screen, the other team can get whatever look they want.

 

[Siro]

Can't wait for AJ to get shipped the **** out of SLC.

 

[Dr. Jones]

Pathetic defense.
God I want Al GONE.

 

[Hartsock]

Wait everyone is acting pissed off. I thought no one wanted to make the playoffs?

 

[akirac73]

Why is Tinsley not back in the game yet? **** you Corbin

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Favors is making a big difference defensively.

Oh you got us! Stupid.

 

[kabenac]

Devin Harris is making m laugh - those moves to the hoop are funny. And I'm amazed by how much better and smarter Favors is on D - remember when he used to foul all the time?

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Favors is shutting down the lane and stuffing their screen and roll.

 

[fatchipper]

This game means nothing. No need to get worked up about it.

 

[kabenac]

We need to box out - drives me crazy. Also, our pace sucks. And that Orton block was crazy.

 

[The Norm]

This game means nothing. No need to get worked up about it.

It would mean we have to beat Phoenix, which we won't the way we "guard" the three.

If we win this game, lose against Phoenix, win against Portland and have San Antonio beat Phoenix on Wednesday, we're in the playoffs.

 

[kabenac]

Harris is playing aggressive and it's working - awesomeness.

We would have to beat Phoenix even if we win tonight. The Spurs won't play the big 3 against Phoenix. Tonight's game means nothing.
