I believe in CJ!
deron leading the team in rebounding with 8, I wonder how often that happened in the past?..

never. that's the first time. 8 is his career high.
Really? I thought he had 9 once.
I said a similar thing in the last game thread, where the bench got more minutes than tonight but (except for CJ, of course) still posted lots of zeroes all the way across their box scores. The extended burn for the starters may be a response to that, and although it was a successful short-term solution, bearing in mind this was only our second game in a week and energy levels would be higher than normal, in the longer term it isn't sustainable. We need the bench - all the bench - to start showing up and contributing.Nice win but my concern is our bench production. Starters had to play big minutes. If CJ doesn't score coming off the bench then the Jazz are in big trouble. Fortunately, he has played well the last two games.
Miles just needs to keep hitting those 3's and keep the hacking to a minimum and we should be fine. Elson is the worse pick and roll player ever, need Memo back and Fes to limit his hangovers.
The Jazz have two more cake teams (the Clips, W's) before heading down to South Beach.
Clippers ARE a cake team. mmm, cake
