Limiting TO, controlling the boards, and dominating the FT line will be the 3 biggest keys. I think we do 2 of those things and the game is our.
Hood really has to show up too. At very least we need a 20 piece, but probably more like 25.

I feel the same way about Lyles, I think he could dominate against these guys.
Damn, that;s a pretty easy line. I was thinking -4.0 at the highest.
At least your Exum one should be fresh.

Joe Johnson makes more than Burks.
Right... three of our four. Well, JJ might be there for only half the game while he wakes up from his Red Lobster dinner he had at 4:00.

It's funny to me how some fans seem to expect the FO to have some kind of Crystal ball when it comes to injuries. It's quite possible whenever they make a statement about a player, they really just don't know when he'll be available.
Would you be any happier if they came out and said we expect this guy to miss half the season, just to cover their asses? I realize it's disappointing to have Favors out, but how about we be a little more realistic about expecting exact time frames from the FO. Such information is impossible to know for sure most of the time.
As for the game, I think missing Favors hurts more than Hayward. With Rudy and Faves protecting the rim, I really believe Hill and Exum could contain their 3 point shooting for the most part, which is what kills us against this team. We can still win, but Rudy is going to have to dominate in order for Dante and Hill to cover the 3 without worrying about getting blown buy.
The good news is teams often play casually when the opponent is missing multiple key players. If guys like Hood and Lyles are shooting well, I thimk we have a better chance than most Jazz fans are giving us credit for.
It all starts today.
