Utah Jazz @ Atlanta Pigeons- 5:30 MST

Y'all are missing something significant here. Could it be possible that Rubio is FINALLY locking in this season? Dude went 6-10 (2 of 3 from 3), hit all 3 free throws, and had 17 points with 7 assists and only 2 turnovers, along with some big steals. If he keeps this up Utah will be a much stronger team going into the playoffs. Might even get through round one with him playing like that.

What logic are you using??

Rubio plays well and we lose to Atlanta. How do you extrapolate that too;
Rubio plays well and we beat playoff team?

Rubio's home/away stats are so weird.

Home: 35.5 FG% 29.7% from three 6.9 assists 2.3 TO

Away: 43% FG% 33.8% from three 5.6 assists 3.1 TO

So he shoots better away but has better PG stats at home. More rebounds at home but more steals playing away games.

Yup. Bazemore is a 31% 3pt shooter who hit 4 of 6. That's just garbage, and not much can be done about it.

Good point .

The Jazz game plan shut down Collins and Trae Young had an effective FG% of 38% - 10 percentage points below his averafe which is not great to begin with .

This alone is enough to beat The Hawks handily 9 games out of 10.

The only problem is the rest of the team collectively shot over 60% from 3. Almost double their season average.

This loss left a bitter taste in my mouth too but it was a major outlier when you look at the numbers. No need to second guess .
