And to think we could have Dieng and Giannis right now.

Or future MVP Wolters for half a price...

Much-vaunted pornographer?

We maybe able to pick up Wolters in free agency. He's just rotting on the bench right now. Its a shame because we could use him instead of being subjected to burke doing his best Mo Williams impression.

Whoa, Jeremy Evans sighting. It took awhile for my brain to process it.

For sure. Always liked him for the Jazz, he could run this team so much better. The Bucks will have to rescind their rights on him though.

More-Valuable-Player (than Burke).

Yeah Utah looks better with Exum, only dude on the floor with a positive +/- and he has 0 turnovers.

Burke passed on the break!!!

It's weird that I'm excited for the Jazz to go on the road for awhile. I feel like we have a much better chance at beating east teams on the road than west teams at home. That's how bad I think the east is, and dominant the west is.

Think I'm gonna have to throw in the towel on this one. Getting hard to watch. Ain't mad, though. We knew we were in for some of this.

Next step for Hayward and Favors is figuring out how to assert themselves in games like this.

Enes has to shoot that three. Down 20, wide open. Nothing to lose.

He might catch what Burke's got.

Dirk is like Peyton Manning, I feel like he could play forever. The dude is ageless.

Its funny watching while down 20, and still being impressed during last 2 minutes. You can just see that Exum sees what to do, but still has to learn how to execute. I mean he can, but he will be more efficient with time.

I'd still like to see what happens if someone plays physical with Dirk. Letting him just shoot jumpers untouched doesn't seem to work.

KDBG · Post #97 » by **KDBG** » Sat Nov 8, 2014 4:25 am

As much as we all have PTSD from the word "vet" because of the Richard Jefferson types, we could really use a vet on this team right now. A veteran PG that could shoot and be a mentor for Exum would be ideal.

EDIT: Wow, I just realized that my post looks really bad. This game was basically dedicated to the soldiers for veterans day, right? I just used a PTSD reference. Ugh, this is awkward...

I remember when Memo tried to play physical defense on Dirk and he torched the Jazz for 38(?) points. The guy is freakin' awesome.

I'd rather see that. At least it would be interesting. And with Dirk there's always a chance he flips out and does something rash.

Yeah, I hear ya. One always rathers our guys to play physical with the other teams.
