I know we play better at home, but I still expect a double digit loss tonight based on the fact that Utah is very good and we are very bad.

I also don't feel confident in this matchup. More so since it's the second game in a row.

Whiteside has had a very good season. Great stats for the young man who went from 27m a year to the minimum.

Utah has a great deal of depth in their frontcourt.

Jazz turned it over but our shooting has been very bad.

What I'm seeing is the 2nd unit needs a lead guard to organize them, Lou is not that guy.

The early season bench lineup up of Wright, Huerter, Cam, Solo and Dieng played well, they had a grittier edge. Wright ran the unit, Huerter and Cam were the scorers, Solo and Dieng did the dirty work.

Lou and Gallo came back and if they aren't on offensively they're pretty useless particularly because they'll take the bulk of the shots and their defense is trash.
We can't have a bench unit that's not providing any offensive or any defense, they have to provide one or the other.
