Which would mean we are totally ****ed.Cy may have hit the nail on the head in another thread when he noted this injury could be an aggravation of Don's foot from a couple of years ago. It was really strange the way he came down and never put his right foot down.
Punch. Counterpunch. Counterpunch.I don't think Quin is dog walking Lou anyway. I think this has been a pretty good coaching job by both - but the momentum currently is with Lou. It's now on Quin to gain it back.
lol man I thought I made this post for a second!Well it was fun y’all. Looking forward to watching the roster incrementally fall apart over the next few years.
One lob was a little high but Rudy should have had it... he hit him once. The other two were not great.Niang attempted to multiple times but decided to throw it to the Clippers instead.
Niang's value isnt in his personal stats. He usually does a great job running the offense/defense and making the right play. Tonight was an unusually bad decision making game from him.you mean when he averaged six points on 34% shooting?
By comparison, in the first round Rivers averaged 11 points on 48% shooting. And Cam Payne averaged 12 points on 41% shooting. Both making roughly the same amount of money as Niang but the difference being it didn't take Nuggets or Suns two years to get them to where they are now.
That's why people called for an end to the Niang experiment. It's just not worth it.
Like the same argument can be made about Royce. I'd say Torrey Craig is not that much worse than him. Except he's making roughly 1/7 of his salary and the Suns basically grabbed him for free . What is the point of doing those so-called development projects on scrubs and hoping them to become backups one day, when we can just go straight into the market to get a bunch of backups to play right away?
100%. It’s not cynical. With a big playoff he could be in line for a good payday... or he may be a minimum guy his whole career.The cynical part of me suspects that the new contract is factoring in here.
We don’t know what it even is. I think @Saint Cy of JFC is right about the foot, in which case... sigh... that’s... REALLY not good for at least this postseason.lol man I thought I made this post for a second!
It's not that bad. It's something a lot of players deal with during the playoffs. You just gotta find a way to work through it. I trust Donovan can.
That doesn’t sound like it will get better but who knows. I thought CP was done and then he rose from the dead.Well it was fun y’all. Looking forward to watching the roster incrementally fall apart over the next few years.
Weren’t you the one who posted Spence Checkettes claim after game 2 that Snyder was “dog walking” Lue?I feel like you didn't read the tweet correctly.
Either way, I think it's safe to say the Jazz don't look anywhere near as good as maybe we thought a day ago. You can tie it to injuries or what but if they get by the Clippers, I'm not very optimistic they beat the Suns. Still, Conley returning can change things dramatically. I just don't know what to expect about Conley.We don’t know what it even is. I think @Saint Cy of JFC is right about the foot, in which case... sigh... that’s... REALLY not good for at least this postseason.
Pretty sure we go down in flames if our third best player is being told to be George Hill.That doesn’t sound like it will get better but who knows. I thought CP was done and then he rose from the dead.
It’s clear we can’t ride him this much. It’s time to bring back Mike and try it... even if we end up going down in flames.
Except, their players aren’t getting injured while our players are. Hard to win a series when your starting backcourt either isn’t playing or is breaking.Punch. Counterpunch. Counterpunch.
Jazz were never going to sweep the Clippers.
PG and Leonard are too good not to win a game or two, but the Jazz have to do a better job of playing defense, minimizing mistakes (especially turnovers) and getting more rebounds. Clippers have gotten WAY too many extra chances - which they usually convert. Nothing worse than playing good defense and getting a stop - only to have them get the rebound and scoring off it.
