another good test for Rudy
[QUOTE]Jody Genessy: Rodney Hood (foot) participated in portions of practice today but will not play Tuesday vs. Warriors. Twitter @DJJazzyJody [/QUOTE]
Be interesting to see what they do with Ingles and Millsap once he's back. I'd send Hood and Exum to the D-league at least on the weekends when they have their games.
[QUOTE]Chris Mannix: Clippers have engaged a few teams on Jordan Farmar, per sources. Belief is LA looking for an expiring deal to send to BOS for Austin Rivers. Twitter @ChrisMannixSI [/QUOTE]
Clark, Evans and Williams all work. Says Williams is signed for 3 years. Can't do that on a 10 day can you? Farmar can shoot and is a vet. Evans and Clark don't appear to be part of the future.

Pretty much is I think.
[QUOTE]But as the season has progressed, so has Ingles. He almost immediately established himself as a member of the rotation, regularly coming off the bench. He has became one of the best passers on the team, and a guy who often held Utah

Rudy!
[QUOTE]Eric Pincus: I also hear the Clippers are looking to move Reggie Bullock out in a salary dump, to gain breathing room w/hard cap. No the Lakers cannot use one of their disabled player exceptions on Reggie Bullock - only works for players on 1-yr deals @BBallInsiders Twitter @EricPincus [/QUOTE]
Jazz have the cap room to get him. He shoots pretty good.
[QUOTE]Derrick Favors was fabulous tonight. This was the best array of offensive moves I have seen from Favors. He hit the jumper, he rolled to the middle, he dropped baseline and this was against one of the best rim protectors in the NBA. Favors has put together 4 20 point 10 rebound games in his last 5 games. He is playing like a beast.[/QUOTE]
He sure did a hell of a job defensively too. :rolleyes: What caught my eye was when he hit two straight from a few feet further back than I've seen him hit in the past. If he can keep moving back and hitting those shots consistently it will certainly make the decision on him or Kanter a lot more interesting. It's not a Kanter or Gobert question long term. Rudy is the one untouchable on the team right now.
R[QUOTE]udy Gobert came off the bench tonight. When he was on the floor the Warriors shot 26/63 for 41%. However, that is a bit misleading because in the 4th quarter without Curry, Thomspon or Green playing a single minute the Warriors shot 6 of 24 which skewed the numbers. Prior to the 4ththe Warriors were shooting 20 of 39 from the floor. However, the other side of the equation is clear the Warriors shot 71% with Gobert off the floor.[/QUOTE]
After that article yesterday trying to say they were now good without Rudy defensively. We saw what the best offensive team in the league did to them and how far away they still are.
[QUOTE]However, the Jazz offense shot 62% with Gobert off the floor and 40% with him on the floor.[/QUOTE]
That's why figuring out what players are going to be able to fit best with Rudy is so important. They are a better team with him. Have to figure it out. Gobert, Hayward and who?
[QUOTE]Enes Kanter had 13 points and 10 rebounds and continued his assault on the offensive glass with 5 offensive rebounds. However, he had 0 assists and is not doing a lot to make his teammates better. His plus minus tonight was not good.[/QUOTE]
And other than Rudy no ones was. The praise for Favors and they negativity towards Enes gets old.
[QUOTE]The Jazz defended well in the first half. They kept the ball on one side of the floor most of the time. They generally kept the Warriors in a half court game and they had good pick up points to prevent easy early three
[QUOTE]Derrick Favors, Enes Kanter, and Rudy Gobert split nearly all 96 big man minutes, save for the final 2:32 when the game was out of reach. Here
[QUOTE]"We played good defense," Derrick Favors said. "They just hit a lot of tough shots."
Said Trey Burke: "They got hot."[/QUOTE]
They were hitting wide open 3's. Was like shoot around. That's not good D.
[QUOTE]Up until that period, the Jazz had made a game of it, falling behind early, climbing back to take a lead, then getting tied at the half at 53. Utah was hitting nearly 50 percent of its shots. Problem was, the Warriors were making 59 percent. It was an entertaining affair.[/QUOTE]
good D? :facepalm
[QUOTE]After the break, it became less fun for the home fans, what with Curry getting his 27 points on 10-for-16 shooting and 11 assists, aided by five teammates in double figures and another three who were within a point or two of that. The Jazz simply could not keep up.
