Game Thread Nov 08, 2023 05:00PM MT: Jazz at Pacers

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Nah, some really smart person said we'd be fine on defense tonight because "we can switch"

Defense has been good. It's Indiana. They would have dropped 150 on Walker

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

They gave up ground… then got it back… then THT gave it back.

THt got one of the highest +/-

One of the few bright spots once again

 

[SoUjazzfan]

Yeah, we don't have to worry about the tank ever stalling. These guys are excellent at it. If it gets too close they mix in a few turnovers with missed shots and just like that, we secure the loss.

Dear lord…

Dear lord…

At some point the trolling just feels too forced

 

[HeatCheck]

I'm not home just boxscore watching but why is KO a -19 the worst on the team?

 

[Bawse Dawg]

Really felt like we had something good going until THT spoonfed the Pacers all the momentum.

Tank legend

Look I guess if you had said we should give a minimum quality player 80M maybe the best play is to ride it out.

 

[Zombie]

Defense has been good.

Lmfao

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Team went to garbage land with THT on the bench

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Lmfao

It's relative

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

This is the best defense the Jazz have played all year imo. Indiana is an elite offensive team and they played them tough as they could.

 

[KqWIN]

They are shooting 30% from 3 and will still end up with 135+

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Lauri had his worst game the game THT gets benched....

 

[MT Steve]

Pacers offensive rating tonight so far: 125.3

Best offensive rating by any team over a season in NBA history: 119.4

Cy, when the alternative is admitting he was wrong: "The defense has been good"

 

[Release the Kraken]

Falling apart at the seems, but still a huge improvement over the last few. Clarkson - best I’ve seen him this season. We live and die with the Rook, but I can live with that. Still our best option moving forward imo.

Try watching the game. I know that is tough for you.

Offensive rating doesn't tell the whole story of how a defense played.

 

[SoUjazzfan]

One bright spot, ref got reversed on a garbage call.

 

[str8line]

**** yeah Keyonte!

The wild thing is that the Pacers have actually shot a dreadful percentage on their wide open 3's tonight. And they're STILL producing way higher than the best offensive rating in NBA history.

So yeah, you're right, the offensive rating doesn't tell the whole story of how bad our defense has been.
