Hyped for it

I'm starting to think that Keyonte will be ahead of THT and Dunn in the rotation right from the start. Jazz are going to need to space the floor for Collins and Kessler, and Keyonte might be the best floor spacer we have in the backcourt. If Kessler and Collins are not considered shooting threats, then I don't think you can put THT or Dunn out there with them in the starting lineup. I think you'd put THT/Dunn next to Olynyk at the 4.

That said, it wouldn't surprise me if the Jazz started Sexton and Clarkson in the backcourt.

I don’t have to tell you all but this is a must win game.

Nice first gamethread of the year, game threads

 

[FrenchJazzFa]

Great the games finally back. Even it' only pre-season, exciting to watch.,

 

[HermanG]

Are they load managing PG13, Kawhi and Westbrook? I mean they did play a game like 6 months ago so I wonder if they are fully healed.

 

[Revolution 9]

Hoping for some Hendricks and Keyonte highlights.

I want to see the shiny new toys,

Damn, 4am game time and league pass that costs 20 usd for the season where I live isnt working. I hope there are good highlights later. I cant stay awake for this one.

... aaaaand that's exactly what will happen.

None of these rooks will leapfrog established vets in the rotation.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

The line is LAC -2.0

Do I dare be a degenerate and bet on pre-season?

 

[kabenac]

At worst we'll be a fringe playoff team. The Jazz are deep and our defense is good.

I can't wait to see how the rookies play. Even if their shots don't fall I'm more interested in seeing if any will look comfortable and not lost out there.

As critical I am of Brice I expect him to catch onto the system quickly. I look forward to seeing how the other young guys look in this respect as well.

The 4th quarter is probably going to be end-of-rotation guys and G-league guys.

Uhh, probably like half the game. Lauri might not even play. A lot of teams have been resting their FIBA tourney players for the first game.

 

[Shad]

blowout loss...... too soon?

 

[Step-Back Hook]

Must lose game. Go tank!

They are fully healed. Clips want to keep them healthy. Don’t think they will play much and when they do it will be low min.

Do you have a reason for this or just gut feeling? I mean even Don started on the bench. I highly doubt KG starts game one
