What's new

Utah Jazz vs. Los Angeles Kuzmas - 8:30p MDT (ESPN)

If Ingles looks like an alcoholic electrician (a quote gathered by Jazzavenues) then Caruso would be Ingles' mute brother whose job is to drag the building wire into the property and clean the jobsite when Ingles is done with the electrical work.

Love the picture you painted.
 
Ingles has not had a good preseason.

Yeah Ingles hasn't shot it well at all.

Haven't read anything in this thread after these posts but I was saying the same thing last night, that if he didn't just get a new contract and I was just looking at his play during the preseason (not his name) I would think he's a player in danger of being cut.
 
Rock solid? What kind of rock are you talking about? He has not been a rock or solid for two years. The little I saw of him last night makes it look like he is seriously diminished from his prime, no more lift or explosion. I suspect he has just prematurely aged or the injuries have done their damage.

He moved well last night (I thought). It should read Rock Solid... if healthy. I still think he can be as effective as he has in the past, but he still isn't ideal next to Rudy.

His jumper looks better this season and I think it is in part to his legs being back. He also made a really nice pass last night too... may not be the crazy athlete he was but he's still a force (when healthy) and I think some of the other parts of the game will make up for some of his slippage.
 
Morning after... and I am having a Mitchell hangover...

I can't wait to see Mitchell, Thabo, and Gobert shut down Tatum, Gaywarts, and KieKie. We are DEEP as a ever, Mitchell has made Haytwat forgettable in summer league and preseason by contributing in ways that no player in the history of the Jazz offseason have ever contributed! Period. Name me one player we have had who had a 30+ game with 8 steals, played 4th quarter minutes and had that impact, took a game over that both teams wanted to win, plays defense, and has that attitude!

Remember when I sent that email the night before the draft calling out my fav pick for the jazz? "Donavan Mitchell (PIPE DREAM - requires a trade. It worked for the Spurs)." Yeah, that one? Tee hee hee. Loving it! We have this guy for the next 7 years at least yo! Barring nuclear war with North Korea, will extend him or match him as a restricted FA at the VERY least. I need another DM hit, but I have to wait 7 days. Boooooo.

When he' healthy. Yes, he is an injury concern, and has missed too much time. When he's healthy on the court he is rock solid. His game overall is steady and will be missed if he goes.
 
I was too sleepy to pay close attention but what stood out....

Mitchell was the best player on the court.

Rubio wasn't impressive, two careless turnovers on inbounds plays if I remember. I hope he's ok with being our Jason Terry if he wants to stick around.. except Rubio isn't a great shot.

SloMo Joe lost some muscle weight now that his gym rat Hayward isn't around.

Feels good to beat the Lakers, what did yall think of Dfav? Looked younger moving around no?

I call BS. No one even heard of DM until Eenie Meenie discovered him.

Fairly sure DM love is embedded in all of our DNA. It has no beginning and no end. The love spreads like an exhilarating force anytime you watch him play basketball or conduct an interview or tweet out something pro Utah.

Yep. Pretty sure DL just picked his name out of a hat. It's not like they brought him in for a workout and had the media salivating over how well he did. Or that Mitchell talked about how much he'd like to play for the Jazz.
 
On the other hand, Jingles is a glue guy who settles things down. He doesn't play that well in the fast pace. That's why you bring him off the bench with Joe Jesus. Two guys who make the right play and can make their shots. Hood would be better suited to the faster pace line-up. Hard to say but I think Quin will figure it out.
Jingles is not effective if he isn't hitting his shots. He is one of the guys on the floor when we go through our droughts.
