It's not even about being given the ball. Would you continue to work like a madman on defense if no one else on the team is putting in any effort in that department?

This is the bigger issue… a couple back breakers… Rudy shuts off the pg drive and forces a tough shot… almost has the rebound but Mike let’s Mann fly by on a straight line for a rebound… ends in a three. Another instance Paschall can’t come up with the board and three. No one helps the helper and all the defense goes to waste.

pretty damning on the coach that he hasn't been prepared to do what Wade talks about

Quin's *** is grass after this season.

From Andy Larsen's 'Tripple Team' article.

There are still games left in this Jazz season, and there’s still likely yet to be a postseason. The players are saying that there’s still time to change the team’s mentality, to learn to fight, to learn to play basketball well even when times are tough.

No one believes them. They’ve said it too many times before. They have to say it because you can’t be a highly-paid professional basketball player and acknowledge that your competitive spirit is gone and hope to get contracts moving forward, but the words are meaningless.

Actions speak louder than words. Another collapse like this, this Tinseltown nightmare on loop, speaks volumes.

lol. I'm lockdowned in Shanghai. today is my 10th day and we are not allowed to leave our homes. drones flying all over, nat test everyday and we are fighting for online food orders.

That sucks. Thanks for reminding me a Jazz loss isn't the worst thing in the world.

Royce O'Neale tonight: 35 minutes, 5 points, 4 assists, 2 rebounds, -9. Dude is just not good enough to be a starter in this league.

it doesn't suck that much maybe just got used to it. locking down a compound here is very common. what sucks is not playing NAW or butler when Forest went down or not letting hernangoat finish when he was playing well.

Another subtle jab taken at teammates. This team is so petty, it's unbelievable.

Every Donovan quote has Donovan taking responsibility. That's leadership even when the leader is screwing up.


Every Rudy quote is about how others are messing up. That's the problem with the entire chemistry of this team.

It was obvious that Mitchell was terribly embarrassed by his gaffe. But when you look at the fact that nobody could get open, down 4 with 20 seconds and probably going to be a turnover or 5 second violation, it was hardly a game changer IMO.

- Gay with an actually good game, he might be up to a handful this year.
- Royce defended PG well down the stretch. Clarkson, not so much.
- We lost the game at the end of the 3rd quarter. We were up almost 20 and then relaxed, PG made some great plays, and then all of a sudden it was a game going in to the 4th quarter. All of a sudden the Clippers had some energy and just out played us in the 4th.
- Maybe Quin needs to skip a shoot around and take the team to the nickel arcade or something. Maybe they need a little reminder that they play a game. So much depression.
- I'm depressed, maybe I need to go to the nickel arcade.
