No thread yet? I'm excited, can watch a Jazz game without having to avoid coverage sites so the result isnt spoiled in advance.
I think we have a decent chance against the Clippers. The keys tonight are the pick and roll coverage of Hill vs Paul. Hill's length should in theory be an issue, but I haven't researched how those two have matched up in the past.
The other key is how much of an advantage the Jazz can generate out of the Clippers lack of wings. A good collective shooting performance will make it look easy(it usually does, i know), but against the Cs, I'm confident Hood and Johnson can generate good plays even if they're cold from beyond.
Favors vs Griffin will be my favorite matchup. Will be a good indicator how healthy Derrick is.
