Clarkson is the biggest reason Utah isnt up 2-0.

He helped their bench and offense alot but hes a regular season player. If hes not getting his shot making package going hes a liability on the floor. Cant pass, cant defend, chucks up bricks.

Jazz generate good looks on like 80% of their possessions.

Conley is making the right read off the screen-and-roll practically every time.

Ja is superstar in making, I would even say winning wise he more valuable then Zion. Brook extremely surprised me how good he is at both ends. Those two guys have potential to be top 3 backcourt in the league.
Nah no way, I'd say Zion is on the verge of crashing the top 10 already, while Ja hasnt even been an All-Star, which aint saying much considering he's only played two seasons.

A more "athletic" Iverson? Uh...Ok. :crazy:. You don't really get any more athletic at that size than what Iverson was in his prime. In fact, I don't see too many similarities in their games. I mean both were good off the dribble, but Morant seems to be a bit slower than Iverson was and certainly not as athletic. Still a phenomenal player, but he's not a "more athletic" Iverson by any stretch.

Grayson Allen giveth and Grayson Allen taketh away. Jazz know he overreacts on defense.

Jazz should put in Mitchell to cook this defense. Clarkson isn't hitting.

I have an unusually large parlay of which Mem +5 is my final leg.

How are we feeling tonight!? Do we think yall will get more from Brooks tonight? Will Ja be able to keep getting to his spots? What to expect form Jonas?

Not a great start for you

Jazz should win this game by double-digits if they hold Ja under 30 pts, imo.

Yup unfortunately you get great games or brick fests from him, today it looks like we're getting the later.

The extended rest for Mitchell and Conley somehow affected Clarkson's productivity. Season started and he was instant offense, almost a point per minute of production. Right now he's kind of slow to get things going for him

Even if he goes off for 50 it won't matter if Brooks and JV are non-factors on offense. Ja can't do it all alone.

doing a 360 dunk when down ten is not the best idea.

He is bigger than iverson but not more athletic. What Ja does though is what Iverson and Rose did, they attack with no concern for their body.
