Hi future Sean. Sending good vibes that Utah is up 2-0 heading into this game - or at least 1-1.

Love,

Past Sean

We'll see, his feet aren't even leaving the floor during shootaround.

Based on that way the Jazz play defense, he may not have to leave the ground.

Luka won't play in game three. He doesn't need to. Dallas can afford to lose that game.

But game four isn't until Saturday. I don't see why he shouldn't be good to go then.

I really hope Luka comes back in game three. We lose one at home and he isn't playing this place may implode.

I watched a replay of Game 2 and a charitable way to say how our guards played defense was like a bunch of near-sighted butterfly collectors. Sorry Quin, if yours guys are getting beat that badly, you sit them down and let someone else play. The Dallas guards would get dribble penetration and the rest of the team then looked like village idiots.

Jazz should play game 3 without Mitchell and game 4 without Gobert and game 5 without Quin... time to start sensing and testing the future

Given where Luka is in his rehab process, I think it's still unlikely that he plays in Game 3. He needs to do running and cutting, and he needs to be cleared for contact. He needs to be able to perform the movement with which he got injured. He wasn't really running yet as of yesterday.

With Brunson, they may need to back off and hedge against the drive. A contested mid-range 2pt shot is preferable to an open corner 3.
