As if Sloan’s teams didn’t pull this kind of crap all the time!

Sloan's teams went to the finals twice and ran into Jordan. Watch yo mouf.

That is why I call him Bogey “Balls” Bogdanovic.

 

[Ron Mexico]

Jazz just wanted to practice a close game, NBD.

Truthfully this team is having a hard time caring about games and putting in effort. They think they can just turn it on at the end and beat teams.

 

[Moonlight Graham]

Bogey is at his best when he doesn't hesitate to launch it from distance.

And also blew a bunch of leads as fans complained about him waiting too long to call timeouts!!!

This game should have never needed heroics. We just completely lose focus and let teams back in it. Imo that's coaching.

 

[str8line]

We need to do something. Is Metta Peace available?

Ummm there was no jack potting or pillow fort time under Jerry’s watch… he’d have challenged a couple guys to physical fights tonight.

By “heroics” do you mean finally making wide open shots that they missed all night?

A broken clipboard or murdering some puppies in the huddle every now and again is a sound strategy.

Rudy just goes out and handles his business every single night.

The reason we won tonight was we didn't reduce all of our options to Donovan taking bad shots with 3 guys in his face.

Contrary to popular belief, Jerry admitted to being a big pillow fort guy in his later years and even traveled to Arkansas to build a replica of the original hotel pillow fort with Ronnie and Ron Sr…further proof that you can’t believe everything you read on Jazzfanz.

Joe Ingles is old.
Rudy Gay is old.
Royce is small for a forward.
Mike Conley is small period.
Jazz shot like crap most the night.

Jazz won because of Gobert's rebounds and free-throws.

This. Get a freaking tech now and then. Sloan was great at that. He brought passion to the team and it showed in how the team responded.

 

[NAOS]

Tbh, I don’t really enjoy watching 53 3-pt shots. I think they’d have to make an absurd number of them to change my feelings about that.

It’s especially bleh when the opponent takes 43. I feel sort of anesthetized.

 

[homeytennis]

That was brutal. A W is a W I guess. Is Butler in the doghouse or not playing because Quin keeps mistaking him for DedEx?

 

[prodigy]

Got lucky Hornets playing on tired legs. This team is just not good enough right now...

"4 wheel drive..like a minivan!"

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Royce shoots 1-for-9 and everyone praises him. I appreciate his rebounds as much as the next guy, but if we think we can't get more from a 30-minute player we're kidding ourselves.

 

[Avery]

Awful shooting, but Goberr balled out from the line.
