Good stuff! Even if it is only to keep butts in the seats.

Like we are up big with 4 min to go. It's the Knicks that needs to make a run. If you don't trust the rook why not bring on Kessler for rebound and defense. Bringing on Simone on that moment simply makes zero sense.

It felt like hardy was tanking. I'm sure he wasn't though. He left lauri in who is on a minute restriction. That's about as anti tank move at there is.

Can the Jazz fly somewhere so we can leave THT there?

 

[str8line]

Confidence inspiring game by Sexton and THT is good timing with Key possibly injured.

Lauri has touched the ball like 2 times total in the last 4 mins or so. I think that’s an issue.

It's been an issue all season

I think the closing lineup may need some tampering with.

 

[Doc Cherno]

I’m growing skeptical of our assistant coaches when I see stuff like that inbound play

We are now utilizing him as nothing more than an off ball spacer which is reminiscent of his Chicago/Cleveland years.

Regardless of the objective, winning or tanking, holding back our biggest star does nothing to help us

Jazz guards took offense at the knob slobbing of IQ

 

[str8line]

KO 1 pt and 2 AST from triple double

 

[Moonlight Graham]

Down the stretch it felt like neither team really wanted to win this game.

 

[SoUjazzfan]

I guess we'll know the extent of key's injury next summer with how the organization has handled things lately

 

[str8line]

Jimi ends up +25

Lauri is what he is imo. He's not a shot creator. When the Jazz have a better primary creator Lauri will be a perfect pairing.

Guessing at least a month

Assistant coaches definitely don't do inbound plays.

On the other hand, 23 points in 25 minutes in his first game back after a pretty long absence isn't horrible
