Can't have a lull if there's no offense

Half of the Jazz's end of clock shots are better than our normal ones

I really like Joe Ingles. Great shooter, good passer, good defender, good basketball IQ. Great role player.

Well, based on the 1.5 games we've played against the Jazz this year, it appears as if we're their bitch.

He is an awsome player and stands for may things our team lacks.
Utah's system enables player to show their strengths and let them grow. Our system exploits the weakness of our players and most of our (role) players abilities atrophy.

It is not much fun to watch our games, I dread watching Melo's apathy (how can anyone move so damn slow(for a professional athlete)) and this lackluster ballhandling.

He's a good glue guy, and can do everything on the court at an above average level. Not a star, but can improve any team to some extent. Even the Warriors.

We have Carmelo Anthony, Paul George and Russell Westbrook, yet Steven Adams may be our best player overall this season. It speaks positively to Adams...But how the hell is this even the case.

Why do the Jazz own us so bad? They've just been an awful matchup for us both times we've played them. The first one didn't result in a complete and total 20-30 point beatdown but they methodically beat us soundly by 10-15 and led by that margin a good portion of the game. And it appears they're following that same script tonight.
