Trap game!

I was gonna say the same that AGE1207.

It's a trap game, because Raptors were until the end in the games vs Lakers & Clippers.

Since the trade, they have won Cavs, @Mem (with Morant)@Warriors and then they have lose close games @Kings, @Lakers and @Clippers.

Maybe they will be tired, since it's the 6th game of a road trip, and if siakam doesn't play it would help us.

But we have to be concetrated in this game and not to think in tomorrow, because Raptors could win us if we don't play at our 100% effort.

Yeah, on the same page here. I was more like any team sub .500 that comes after a Celts, 76ers, Bucks and Nugs series is bound to be taken lightly…let’s hope not but very human

We did the job! Now let's go beat Lakers and finish over 50% the 1st half of the season!

1. Jazz are just putting teams away now, and blowing them out. I think what's happening right now is just as surprising as the Jazz were opening the season last year.

2. Another game where the most minutes played is 31 by Clarkson, and no other Jazz player hitting 30.

3. Sexton with 20 points in 20 minutes in another efficient night.

4. I thought George had a good game, and then I look at the boxscore and see he was 3-10FG. He was still good but man, he needs to up his efficiency.

5. Markkanen with another solid game. If the Jazz continue to ball out, it's going to be hard to justify leaving him out of the Allstar game (if he qualifies).

6. Another solid game all around. Props to everyone.

I don't have the games recorded, so can't go back and verify my recollections, but here are some:

- Scottie Barnes was getting himself matched up against Collins early in the second quarter, and he was taking Collins to the cleaners. Font and Ochai did a much better job defending Barnes later on. Barnes never got going in the second half.

- Keyonte was annoying me at times by dribbling the ball for many seconds on the perimeter and doing nothing with the ball, but I have to remind myself that he is only a rookie.

- Sexton continues to be extremely efficient. He plays way bigger than his height in the paint and he is good at drawing fouls. Sexton is averaging an impressive 18.9 ppg on 65 TS%, with 5.1 ast, 1.9 tov in just 22.7 minutes per game over last eight games.

- Veterans Olynyk and Dunn are major factors contributing to our success. I am irritated that these two players are not signed for longer. I hope we don't lose them at the trade deadline for less useful players.

- Sensabaugh and Hendricks both looked very good when the teams emptied their benches.

- Game was not immensely exciting, because Toronto never made a serious run in the second half.

It looks like Jazz doesn't run on all cylinders. Raptors looks doomed and Jazz looked focused enough but relaxed. Which is very good given today back-to-back with Lakers

This was one of those games where every Jazz player played really well..... Even those that didn't have "good" stats, they still actually played really well......

Is it time to fire Danny for once again not tanking properly?

Lol.

Life is hard for the tank-obsessed.
