Jazz/Grizz game thread

So....Corbin's big lineup change is to put Hayward in there, but not for Foye? I'm confused. Hayward will probably struggle playing with Al.

Pretty good ball movement in the second half of the 1st quarter...really when Favors came in is when I noticed it. But I love watching basketball when their is good movement like that.

Well, the Jazz certainly WANT it tonight.

Corbin hates DC, don't he? Though I don't know that this is a matchup he'd be needed as much...a high-energy defensive specialist to hold down...Tayshaun Prince?? Nah.

Also, Corbin LOVES him some Earl Watson, don't he too?

Alsoplus...why we not seein' ANY big combos: Al/Favors, Kanter/Favors, Kanter/All against the Twin Towers here? Is it because Corbin thinks he's dong something smart?? Is that a bad sign?

Finally, the Jazz are playing hard nose defense. When was the last time we saw that??????

Rotations tonight are very interesting. Really working the 10-man roster in a mix and match approach. Seems to be working against a very good team.

I edited my previous post to express consternation....exasperating consternation!...about our failure to go double-big against Gasol/Randolph. A lot of Marvin and Millsap.

Yeah, that actually was just dawning on me, despite the mixed rotations, (interesting) and Watson had a plus 7, if you can believe, that somehow we weren't seeing double bigs that much. Game far from over.

And per VOR's first post. Really, Randy Foye? WTF is the point at this point, hasn't he earned a bench role yet???? At least he got jerked after 7 minutes of useless play.

One day soon, Ty will start his five best guys, you know, what the hell, why not see if that might work.

To be fair, his best five guys might often include four bigs, so that may never be possible.

Hayward led them in rebounding?? Nice.
