"You Gotta Love It Baby" Official Jazz thread

I'm wondering why it took Corbin almost 96 minutes of game time to employ this strategy of defending Parker with Hayward going under the pick every time. The Jazz will probably lose even doing that because Parker is a good mid-ranger shooter, but if they let him get in the lane at will they might as well not even play the games because they have no chance - as evidenced in the first two games.

Since this post the Jazz have gone over the screen on Parker twice and SA got easy baskets on both plays.

Hey guys, make a fucking free throw. TIA.

Holy shit. What a block by Favors coming out of nowhere.

[MarkGrace]

That was pretty nasty.

[smokymountainrain]

Favors is ridiculous.

[smokymountainrain]

A 3 pt lay up to end the half for the Spurs.

[MarkGrace]

Shit. Can't even get the lead at the half.

[MarkGrace]

G-Time can't get the 3-ball going in this series. 1/9 now.

[MarkGrace]

1/10

[MarkGrace]

Game's over. Blew their shot.

I think now is a good time to take out Favors because the match up won't be as good coming out of the timeout.

Well I hope Jefferson or Millsap are traded in the offseason (hopefully Jefferson because of his contract and defense). Favors needs to be a bigger piece in the offense in addition. Would be nice to get Dragic or Nash instead of Harris but he will probably stick around next season.

I know this sounds crazy but I'm sticking with SloanHaters prediction. jazz win the next four, defeat the spurs, then march all the way to Game 6 of the WCF.

Big Al concedes the series. Says nobody will beat the Spurs in the playoffs this year, and that while the Jazz just didn't play hard in Game 2 (whole 'nother bag of worms itself) they played well in Games 1 and 3 and just didn't have a chance to win because the Spurs are too good.

So sounds like he should just sit his butt out of Game 4. I wonder if Al is using AK's travel agent to make vacation plans.

I'm happy to be in the playoffs. I'm happy to go through what I'm going through right now, because that's what it's all about. I just think we're playing against a team that is at its peak, and I don't see nobody beating 'em. … It's a great team. I just take my hat off to 'em. Mad respect."

Yep, this is what it's all about Al. At least you, your coach, and your GM seem to be on the same page.

Why criticize Jefferson? He's just telling the truth. No intelligent basketball fan ever thought the Jazz had a chance of winning any of these games. I'm assuming Jefferson is an intelligent basketball fan.
