Utah Jazz vs. Los Angeles Clippers

The Line: Los Angeles Clippers -4 -- Over/Under: 218.5

Morris, Patterson, and Ibaka all out.

Morris knee soreness starting to worry me. Please don’t need surgery

Let’s get started

Reggie Jackson still has trash decision making lol

Let’s go Fi!

Nice block by FI, and then a nice step back by Kennard.

Looks like they were able to work out some of the kinks in practice. Having those days between the last game allowed the team to get some vital practices in

Fi doing some nice things against Gobert.

Kennard looks great. Imagine what he’ll be like when he’s fully settle in.

Jackson is somehow worse than the bubble. How.

Kennard needs to take that mid range jumper off the screen he had a great look

tell me something good

[cue Chaka Khan]

Good half considering Utah just took a bunch of 3s to get the lead. 31 attempts oh my

The offense comes to a screeching halt when Kawhi has the ball in his hands for too long. That pick n roll with Zubac runs better with PG running some point which it looks like they're experimenting with

Kabengele had two blocks on Gobert and ran the floor nicely

Well still lots of work to be done but a lot of positives

Fi still fighting

Marcus Morris will earn his money this year

In the first half when the team was engaged, I definitely saw some good things on both ends of the floor

the defense looked horrible. The Jazz got whatever they wanted. It seemed like the Clippers aren't aware that the 3 point line exists on D. Hopefully that stops on Tuesday

It looks exactly the same as Doc's "defense." This is the type of thing I was afraid of with promoting one of his assistants instead of hiring someone from outside the organization.

I believe Dan Craig is in charge of the defense, and Ty is responsible for the offense. There's probably some adjustment time needed, or at least I'm hoping that's the case. It takes time to break bad habits.
