Jazz lost this game at the end of the 3rd quarter and start of the 4th, with that atrocious bench unit. Jazz were up by 6 pts and could have stretched to a double-digit lead if they weren't completely inept on both ends.
He also ganbled to get a steal in 4th leading to a free Durant 2 - in the crucial moments too.. And there was 2 seconds in the shot clock. He was kinda non existent the whole 4th. Ending to a soft clutch drive.I mean he had 21 points on 12 shots, bad means something different for him I guess. . .
Only Will Hardy would be dumb enough to draw up a play for a contested 2 when we're down by 4 against a team with two elite FT shooters.
While true, it’s the same lineup that saved us in the first half. It was a bad 9 minutes, but when averaged against their first 9 minutes they played all right.Jazz lost this game at the end of the 3rd quarter and start of the 4th, with that atrocious bench unit.

If we beat them by 12, we have a pretty good chance. Our point differential is +19 and Lakers have +42. If we can pass them then other 2nd seed finishers in West need massive blowouts to pass us.If we beat the lakers can we still get out of the group stage?

Good Clarkson tonight so far.
Shooting splits are insane for both teams. Poor defense makes NBA players look as good as they are.
I'm sort of worried about Lauri's finishing in and around the paint. He used to finish through fouls better than he has this year and has missed some touch shots he usually makes pretty automatically. Also hasnt gotten his trademark aggressive dunks. Is he slightly hurt or just lacking touch?
