  • Just saw that 82games updated their Simple Rating. I've been waiting on those since Kanter had his run of big minute games. He jumped to the front of the pack at +6.6. Hayward also had a solid boost up to +5.1.

    Jefferson still has the worst on/off net at -8.6. Best are Kanter, Carrol, Burks. And that seems to be validated with Marvin's game looking far more energetic and productive with the move to the bench and fewer minutes on the court with Al. Nash talked this week about how getting handling the ball more, but particularly getting more shots, can really change how involved in the game a guy is. He said even for himself, shooting more helps him stay in the flow, but he also recognized that for other guys so that is why he wouldn't shoot excessively. Jefferson is somehow sucking the life out of most units he plays with, even though some of his efficiency and production numbers would say he's playing okay.

      I've always thought that to be the case.

      Should this be amusing or make me sick? The jazz are closer to the kings than they are to the grizz or nuggets.

      • Utah is currently 34-35.

        They are 21-15 when Mo doesn't play. 13-20 when he does. That win % w/o Mo in the lineup would have the team as the 6th seed.

        • Time to start rooting for a better lottery pick. Go Mavs!

          • Missed it tonight. Why only 8 minutes for Burks? Was Dirk in Favors' head again?

            • Time to shut this place down until next year. The Jazz are done.

                I seriously had no clue the Jazz played tonight. I've already shut it down.

                  Let the Burke vs. Kabongo vs. MCW games begin!
                  So Russell...what do you love about music? To begin with, everything.

                    Just finished UTA-DAL. Utah such a mess. DAL deserves a ton of credit for playing hard and scheming well every night. High standards there.

                      He only had 11 points, 3 asts, 2 rebs in those 8 minutes. Probably benched for being unproductive.

                        And no TOs. WTH?

                        Apparently Enes finally got some minutes again, and proceeded to score 17 points on only 9 shots. Good thing he's been getting under 10 minutes recently. Don't want that kind of production on the court.

                        • Based on my player expectations when the season ended last year...

                          Most Surprising - Enes Kanter
                          Most Disappointing - Derrick Favors
                          So Russell...what do you love about music? To begin with, everything.

                          • Jazz, Lakers and Mavs all projected to finish 41-41. Jazz have the tiebreaker with both. I hope the projection doesn't play out because I don't want to watch another four games.

                            • I just hope the Jazz finish right behind them both.

                              Ownership doesn't deserve the windfall from home playoff games after what they put on the floor this year for us to watch.

                                If the Jazz make the playoffs I would LOVE another matchup with The Spurs. Revenge!!!
