bunch of guys on the roster who can't reliably get a bucket either.


side note, Jazz announcers are refreshingly impartial, but the referring to every Jazz player by their initials gets on my nerves

You will win zero games making 2 threes in the NBA. Pretty simple game tonight, made zero shots.

Plumlee should shoot a 3 next, just to show his dominance, I wonder which hand he would use

Peak Clifford clogged toilet offense tonight.

How the **** do you only take 16 3s in a game in 2023?
How the **** do you only make 2 3s in a game in 2023?

" look the good teams in this league, and Michael will tell you this, understand that two-point baskets are worth every bit as much as 3-point baskets. What is important is getting the ball into your centers and letting them shoot from up close" - Clifford, probably

Plumlee shot 83% so that wasn’t totally wrong.

Plumlee is genuinely climbing the bobcat all time centre list.

Better than okafor now?

Do you value Mason's efficiency and passing or Okafors rim protection? Both were solid rebounders. Okafor was crap finishing in traffic.

The all time bobcat Era center list is quite pathetic.

1. Jefferson

teir of barely passable starters Mason, zeller, Okafor, Howard,

Next teir of biz, pussyfoot, Mark, nick, nazr, Kwame

I'm not really a center, but here I am Washington, diaw, harrell

The big white stiff Frank?, hawes, brezec, mullens, miles, voskuhl, willy

The washed up rim protectors Hibbert, Ratliff, diop, haywood

String beans Hollins, kai, ajinca

Pure garbage Ely, jahidi white, carey, harrington, dj white

I was hoping for a few more minutes of Mark tonight in the 4th when the team was already down 20 points with 7 minutes left, but the Rainman just couldn't bring himself to go off script and subbed Plumlee back in lol.

Teams have been keeping a body attached to Mark anytime he is close to the rim and its creating a lot of space in the middle of the floor. PJ has seemed to enjoy the extra room to operate in the mid/high post. Some of the ball handlers have also started picking up on it and just going straight to the rim when they have a lane and Mark is in the dunkers spot and forcing Marks defender to make a last second decision on whether or not to help.
