Should BOLOMBOY get in the game?

Is BOLOMBOY our only hope to stop D.J.?

I'll answer your question with two words: rebounds.
 
I think we need more of an athletic physical presence in the paint and around the rim which are two areas he theoretically would bolster. Yet juxtaposing that need with Bolomboy's inexperience and deficiencies I'm not sure he's the answer but if I'm Quin I probably try him on the floor with Blake and Jordan and see what happens.

Also, Say whatever you want about Boris, he still plays smart and that proves valuable time and time again. He doesn't get enough credit for the savvy things he does over and over again.
 
Dude would be a deer in the headlights out there. So cute when fans question coaching, the ones that actually see these dudes play every day.

does the question posed in the OP address what the coaches have done with an air of criticism? Or does it ponder what the coaches might do moving forward after analyzing game 2? So cute when jazzfanzers drop a deuce like you just did.
 
I know one thing for sure: if we play the same bigs and get repeat performances from them, there's virtually zero chance we leave SLC with home-court advantage. Playing Bolomboy would be an experiment, but he has 6 good fouls and can shoot the 3 (theoretically). So, yeah, I support throwing him into the fire and seeing what happens. Short leash, obvi.

Hill Hood Ingles Hayward Favs should start

Hayward is a better defender for BG than Diaw. Have Diaw play C next to Jj when Jordan is off the court.
 
Make Griffin guard a wing. Play 4 out with Favors in midrange to make DJ have to defend iN space.

Wasn't necessarily talking about this question but in general...but you're right lol
 
I think he can handle some spot minutes here and there. Doesn't have to be extensive court time, just enough to get some fresh legs out there, maybe a couple of hack-a-Jordan fouls.

This is not a bad idea. Let whoever Blake is guarding light him up from the perimeter. Hayward also more likely to actually grab a rebound.

Could anyone imagine Blake guarding Hayward, Ingles or Hood?
 
Do we need him to win this series?

The way this is worded, hell no.

Should be have a shot at knocking Jordan to the ground 6 times in one quarter? Why the **** not?
 
If the Jazz start an epic meltdown in the paint again, than yes. Because why not.

I dont think Bolomboy would help us defensively at all in terms of protecting the rim. The thing I think he could do is help rebounding. But I'm not sure if he can deal with Jordan and I'm not sure I would trust him to matchup against Speights. It's just a super hard situation given how little we played him.

I agree with this. Bolomboy is too green. The only reason he should play is if we find ourselves in the penalty early in a quarter, then you put him in to hack DJ.

Yeah we forget Bolomboy is pretty undersized for a center even though he is bouncy. I think Jordan still dominates him on the glass, but idk, he might be worth a try over Withey. Withey just cant deal with Jordan's strength.
