Hayward and Rudy have both been balling out of their god damn minds this season. I hope that Favors and Burks both can make similar leaps in their games next season once they get fully healthy. Then this team will be a title contender.

Major LOL to all those "Why did we get Hill and not Teague in that deal" looking real stupid.

Hill completely turned this team from borderline playoffs to potential a top-5 team in the league. He was definitely the missing piece we needed.

Hayward is so damn efficient. 27 points on 13 shots is amazing. He's getting to the free throw line a lot and is becoming that guy.

Gobert just brings it each and every night. He is good for a double-double every night and it seems like he never has an off night because of it.

We seriously have a legit big three and if we keep playing like this a top-3 seed is in our sights.

I don't want to overreact but it seems like we're playing better without Hood. We are obviously a better team when he is shooting well but right now we are clicking.

Neto and Diaw are horrible.

Lyles has been struggling shooting the ball but he always ends up with the highest +- it's crazy.

Exam should be playing over Neto.

Burks looked amazing and was really in a groove tonight. Made me happy to seem him back to his old ways. He will be the instant offense we need off the bench.

6 WINS IN A ROW!!!

This is a great post and sums up how I'm feeling as well. IF the injury bug can leave this team alone finally, I honestly feel like we're better than Houston and gaining ground on becoming better than San Antonio. This group of guys can be damn special. It's a great time to be a Jazz fan. I'm giddy.

He had three good assists tonight and a few other good passes.

On a Favors side note I think Favors gets fouled without a call more than anyone on our team the last couple years. Hayward was in that boat but he is getting respect from refs this year.

Whats it matter? Hes EASILY our teams worst FT shooter.. Not looking at stats but it feels when im watching like he has less than 50% chance each try.

This has me both worried and happy about his future. Snyder isnt the kinda guy who will play a guy minutes if he sucks on defense, so still seeing Burks play and hearing about them trying hard to improve his defense gives me hope.

But at the same time we kinda know what we get with Burks, and I was super high on him since we drafted him and have been waiting for him to explode, I worry he may not be more than a good bench guy

I noticed AB was staying in front of his man and fighting over the screens as well as I've seen him tonight. One of those fouls against Ellis should've been on Ellis who dips his shoulder into the defender and causes the contact. It's a move he makes regularly and the refs need to wise up. I do, however, see a lot of offensive players drawing contact like that and the refs calling it on the defender, like that hail-mary three that Teague took and popped Ingles in the mouth, by jumping into him. That clearly was an offensive foul, but the refs are not calling it. It's been happening a lot.

Alec is unquestionably one of the most athletic guys in the league. He just needs to train his brain now... Hypnosis. Anything.. Its hard to get guys to THINK WITH the system when they arent that type of guy. I love alec.. Hes always been the guy i root for. If he can learn to play defense he takes this team from good to great.

Ranks #13 out of our 15 players @ 62.3% this season, just a shade worse than his career mark of 66.6%.

He's just behind Rudy at 65.5%, which is a whole 5% better than his career mark.

Burks and Bolomboy are both worse at 50%, but limited sample size yaddayaddayadda. Still don't know why Burks took that technical last night against Dallas tho (which ultimately would have given us the win in regulation).
 
Such a beautiful game from GH, Hayward, Gobert, Ingles and Burks. Can you imagine if Trey Lyles hit a few threes and the backup point was better?

George Hill with the 2nd highest point total of his career in a single game

Or the JT/GH debate?

Been on record for the last ****ing 6 years telling ppl jury was still out on Gordon vs George.


Until this year, PG *always* had the better supporting cast. Compare the level of play from both athletes this season now
 
If Hill can play D on Curry like the D he played on Lowry in last year's postseason, I ain't skurred of the Dubs

I think that's why Neto is getting the minutes. He gets the Jazz into their offense faster and without the high turnovers.

I agree. I think Neto is more of a "pass first" point guard than a scorer, the jazz have enough scorers, someone who can play ok defense and get them into their offense for 10 mins a game is what they need, in my opinion.

Well I'm sorry you have missed out on the last 30 years of music culture because some pretty great stuff has happened.
 
I went out after teh 1st quarter, excited to watch the final 3 on this league pass preview, seems like we whacked them good.
 
I noticed that Favors changed his shoes this game. He has been playing in the Adidas Crazylight 2015 for the past 2 years, he switched to the Adidas Crazy Explosives tonight.

If you think 'hip hop' is music, you'd better wake the **** up and smell the roses......
I guess you think rap is also considered 'music' .
Perhaps stick to chatting about bball and leave music to musicians
