    The only positive thing I can say about this game is that Scoot keeps showing signs of improvement.

    I much prefer the upside of Scoot over Miller even if both were available with the pick. The only guy I'd consider taking over Scoot is Amen. Even then I'm not sure sure.

    No one needed to freeze Shae, he's been ice cold on his own tonight.

    Dude is having a bad game, like the rest of the team. Not unheard of.

    ZERO resistence in painted area. Jazz over 60 points in paint.

    Very unselfish of Scoot to miss the layup so Sharpe could get his first bucket. And nice to see Sharpe going after the offensive rebound despite the score!

    Hit a 3, steal the inbound pass, hit a 3, draw the foul, miss the ft, get the offensive rebound, dunk it, with a flagrant foul, hit both shots, Jazz get a t, hit the technical, hit another 3 on the upcoming play, steal the inbound pass, hit a 3, steal the inbound pass, hit a 3, then we'll be within striking distance down 10.

    Jazz can't clear the bench, because they've all been in the game this entire time.

    37% as a whole. Camara, Walker and Brogdon are the only players shooting over 50%

    Settles down? What does that even mean? He needs to keep shooting to improve. You want to tell your #3 pick to shoot less because we're going to beat playoff team? Doesn't make much sense.

    Calabro just said something that I think has some validity. Utah has seen us already, so anything that surprised them before isn't going to now. That makes me feel like the worst of the season might be ahead of us.

    I think Jerami coming back should help a little but there needs to be way better player and ball movement on offense. Also I'm pretty sure both Jerami and Malcolm will be traded at some point. Bottom line we should be bracing ourselves.
