Game 42: Utah Jazz (17-24) @ Charlotte Hornets (15-24) 

Post#1 » by Crunch 99 » Fri Jan 12, 2018 2:30 pm

Tipoff is 5PM MT tonight.

The Jazz are 4-17 on the road and 3-7 over their last ten. The Hornets are 10-11 at home and 5-5 over their last ten, including a recent win over the Warriors on the road. Dwight Howard erupted for 29 points in that game. Batum has been struggling with his three point shooting this entire season, only at .281 for the season. Kemba Walker is having another good season, but he hasn't been very good on threes for December and January. Let's hope Batum and Walker aren't hitting them tonight. Our old stretch four Marvin Williams leads the Hornets in AFG%, while knocking down threes at 43%. This will be the Jazz' first matchup with the Hornets this season.

He was posthumously demoted for allowing himself to fall into yet another trap.

Though the ranks are actually the same, I think.

They are.

Favors listed as probable, if he doesn't play then that will be interesting.

That lob pass from Ingles to Hood is exactly why I'm all for trading for Wiggins.

Royce is getting well deserved minutes of Burks...there are going to be some freak outs.

Oh look, there's Joe Johnson bricking wide open shots, playing fake defense, and hijacking the offense. And there's Jerebko on the bench who won't get to see the floor after a very good game in Washington.

This is insanity. Give it up Quin.

This might be the worst season of Hood's career so far. He looks really bad and has for a month or so now.

Good thing Royce was there to save that bench unit.

Royce is deserving of his minutes but I'm not sure if it would be Burks minutes that he should be taking.

Another Joe Jesus iso fail. It's not that hard Quin. If Rubio is going to be on the floor, play him with the guys who cut and move without the ball. Don't play him with the guys who hijack the offense.

Udoh+Thabo+Royce+Rubio is a nice group and they just made a good run. Put one of the "scorers" on the court with those 4 and you have yourself a good bench unit.

Udoh and Royce have been so good defensively.
