We shot 36% and committed 12 turnovers, but the Jazz hardly took full advantage. I don't think we'll win, but if we do, the Jazz will be kicking themselves.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

We only have 5 assists as a team right now. We need to share the basketball and move the Utah defense from side to side so we can get some easier looks.

Also, our streak of guys being listed as doubtful for the game but then starting and pwning us continues with Marvin Williams tonight.

When we play Philly, they need to suit up Bynum and throw him in the game. We'll heal his knee and get him going.

I'm really not understanding why Kyle doesn't play some minutes lately after some good showings. Showed to me that he fights defensively and can actually block some shots, he's a willing passer and he can hit jumpers and make free throws. Ayon can't defend himself out of a paper bag but we have him out there for what exactly? sure he makes some nice passes now and then but does that excuse his horrendous defense?

I do like how JV doesn't scream at the guys for the stupid things they do. Vuc jumped on that pump and knew it was a stupid move. SVG would have yelled his ear off.

MH might as well not be out there tonight. He is not providing anything.

If I'm defending Al Jefferson, I put my arm up and stay on the ground. If he wants to shoot 20 elbow jumpers, let him. But when you leave your feet on his fake, it's pretty much lights out. He uses that fake as well as anybody. I know it's easier said than done, because your instincts want to contest, but that's why I say, make the decision before the game even starts to stay on your feet. He'll make some of those jumpers, but you can live with that.

Didn't expect Millsap to school Big Baby like he has tonight.

Afflalo needed a foot on the line to make that last jumper

The energy is MUCH better in this half especially on defense.

Vuc needs to just start grabbing the offensive rebound and coming down with it. Bless his heart, he just cannot make those midair putbacks.

Vucc is on the verge of getting a tech. I'm feeling it...

Vuc is getting hit down there and the zebras just swallowing their whistles. I like that we're showing some life
