Dante’s Night Rises — TJ Warren & Suns @ Utah 3/15/2018 7:00 pm MST

Does anyone else feel like Favors is on the verge of a corner 3 coming out party? His shot just looks better. He looks like he is on the verge of it clicking. He looks like he is a confident follow through away.

Gobert did foul him. His body clipped the back of Chriss's legs. Chriss is a lot of things, including terrible at basketball, but he can jump and dunk the ball.

Rudy's contact comes when Chriss was on his way down because the clown loses the ball on the dunk attempt, that's why the refs didn't call a foul. And if he was mad because of a no call, why go after Rubio and not Gobert?
 
Yeah just a little slow in decision making. On a couple drives he didn't handle the ball great and so didn't beat his man as quickly as I think he will when he's all the way back. The cool thing was that on a couple of those drives he was able to use that nice spin move or just body the guy out of the way and have a relatively uncontested finish regardless. He covers so much ground so effortlessly. It's pretty amazing how many quality looks he generates at the rim. If I was the coach I'd work toward constantly putting him in PnR in the second unit. Get him running off those curl handoffs they love to run as well.

Tonight showed one thing I hadn't thought of. If Exum checks in late in the 1st and 3rd Quarters he has opportunities to get to the free throw line (due to bonus) and defenders are going to have to be careful when he drives. And when they lay off a little he should have some easy looks at the rim.
 
I think Dudley's foul was a little harder than he intended, but what the **** was Chriss doing? That's like the ultimate Shaqtin' a Fool clip right there... missing a wide open dunk and then throwing a little bitchfit about it. What a tool.

Also, that coach should be suspended a game or two for that ****.
Agree. Dudley was stopping the break with a Phoenix player down. Foul was a little too hard. Overall, I do think the technical assessments were correct. Both Joe and Donovan went running in. Appropriate? Hell yes, they had Rubio's back. Dudley I'm ok with time served; Chriss should get a suspension from the league. But I'm not holding my breath. When Rubio got body-checked into the seats nothing happened.
 
Boler had a rough night. As the game clock expired he commented that this was only the 4th time in Jazz history that they had back-to-back 30 pt wins. Didn't Hot Rod have a reputation for calling some games under the influence? Someone better check Bolerjack for a flask. There were quite a few times it seemed he couldn't formulate coherent thoughts.
 
I dont see how it isnt. He makes contact with an airborne player.
I can't see any contact, and even if there were, it's insignificant contact which has nothing to do with him blowing the dunk or falling to the floor. Contact has to "disrupt the shooters balance or rythm" or something like that, to be whistled. He slams the ball into the rim and falls because he has nothing to grab onto. And this doesn't explain or excuse the targetting of Rubio.

Yours is a terrible hot take. It's like Archie hacked your account.
