Purple & Blues - Utah Jazz at Oklahoma City Thunder: Keys to the Game

[jope]

Dog you really have no brain.

ouch dawg. feels bad.

Nobody telling it but Westbrook got two questionable free throws when we were 104-101 with 1.10 left. The refs kept them in the game with a little gift.

No, that was a foul on George. Obvious on the replay.

down 2 not 3 lol

Similar shot though away from the 3-point line, off balance, contested. Just saying it's possible, the shot we got wasn't the worst possible field goal attempt

He didnt even get an attempt tho, right?

Just like I predicted after the Wizards game. Next Jazz loss and suddenly Hayward isn't a star.

The mods should start a wall of shame thread where all the knee jerk reactions can get preserved and laughed at later.

Yeah that one was clear as day once we saw the replay

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

I still say those Rudy turnovers in teh paint where the worst. One should have been a dunk but it ended up being a Westbrook layup.

LOL did they actually wave off Hayward's shot? Didn't even notice.

1) he's kobe
2) they ran a **** ton more action than we did
3) he was only 2 feet behind the line

Ive seen a play we've ran 3 or 4 times at end of games where a curling player from the weak side slips into the corner and gets a decent look at 3. similar to this clip (i know not down 3, but i think the action could still work). i think burks had a look from this play this season, and so did hayward once this season

DUUUUUUUDE you can't reference set plays where the team is not down 3 points. When it's 2 or less everything changes!

On the stat sheet they are saying he got it off, but I bet if he made it they would have reviewed and waved it off. Didnt seem close to getting it off to me.

Really tough loss. On to the next one though.

Ah gotcha, on the Root broadcast it did show the replay and Hill clearly got him.

They also had 2 seconds on the clock which means you can make 1 dribble move.

if you line everyone up at the ft line, how will they know who will pop out and where?

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Oh, and if they dont go 12/12 in the 1st half from 3 we probably win.

 

[Diamond77]

Ok then it is a stupid foul by Hill..

 

[dipship31]

The team down 3 can line up everyone at the FT line, but the defending team would just stay between them and the 3-point line.

I know everyone misses shots. My point is Hayward misses a lot in big moments when we need him to step up and make those big shots. I mean Russell hit a big 3 in George Hill's eye with good D. Hayward misses a wide open 3 on the other end. Russell comes back with a big time drive and an and one. If you're the guy, the max money leader, you gotta step up in those moments and take the game by the throat like Russ did. Can't shrink and disappear.

Don't mind Cy...he has a beautiful and extensive array a nifty excuses in his back pocket whenever Hayward isn't clutch. Tonight's new excuse: The game plan in the 4th was to have everyone else shoot the ball other than Hayward.
