    Would be nice to change up the whipping boy for a game or two.

    Brogdon, Simons, and Grant need to be traded for young players that complement a Scoot/Sharpe/Camara core.

    The "young guys" gave great effort to turn a blowout into a "competitive" final score. The post game questions can be answered with incredible descriptions once again.

    In case you've only been watching the gamecast and not the game, the Jazz played a box-and-1 on him. They didn't seem to think the other players on the court could do much damage against them.

    But, yes, Ant didn't shoot as much, and apparently that wasn't the problem after all. Shocking.

    Anxious to see Ant, Sharpe, Camara, Grant and Ayton get about 5 games together...This is a talented team.

    Missed the game.

    Scoot had a nice line.

    Was it as promising as the line looks?

    Back to back solid games!

    Easy to zero in on a guy who never really tries to find his teammates. I missed the 1st half. Were those assists out of desperation?

    Simons is CJ all over again, A guy who has tunnel vision and if the shots not falling brings nothing else to the table

    The Remix is really helping our bench players get game ready, you can see how it's helped all these guys already.
