Jazz lose. Nets win. You can\u2019t ask for a more successful night at this point in the season. Hopefully the Kings can win tonight to complete a perfect night for the Jazz.<\/p>\n
Cody had a pair of airballs tonight, and also went 0-5 from deep, but his midrange shot continues to look pretty nice. He also had some impressive passes in transition.<\/p>\n
Tough night for Brice, who went 2-8 from deep. He also couldn\u2019t get a call to go his way either which didn\u2019t help. He has looked better on defense and has made some strides as a passer.<\/p>\n
Flip\u2019s minutes suffered tonight because he\u2019s another guy that is too good for the tank. In his 19 minutes he was solid, putting up 9 points, 6 rebounds, and 5 assists. The reigning Summer League MVP will have his minutes return to normal when the season mercifully ends, and the Jazz are playing meaningful basketball again.<\/p>\n
Forgive me Kennedy Chandler I was unfamiliar with your game! I remember when the Jazz first signed him to a 10 day contract I looked up his stats, and when I saw that he was listed at 5\u201911 and shot 13% from deep I thought that he would be back in the G league or playing overseas when his 10 day expired. I am so glad I was wrong, as Chandler has been really solid in the few games he has played with the Jazz so far. Tonight was his best game by a mile, he logged a career high in points, with 31, and rebounds with 7. He also had 8 assists. The Jazz would be wise to see what they have in Chandler and keep him around for Summer League.<\/p>\n
Thurl Bailey\u2019s favorite Jazz man secured himself his second career triple double. Konchar continues to be a calm and reliable presence on the court. He also was very kind and passed on a freebie layup to give Brice (who had a frustrating game) a bucket. A very classy move from the veteran.<\/p>\n
Bez had his best game as a Jazzman as well tonight. He had 26 points on efficient shooting and had 5 steals. There\u2019s no question about his defensive ability, it\u2019s just a matter of developing his shot from deep. Luckily for him he\u2019s got two more seasons to work on it with the Jazz.<\/p>\n
Tshiebwe shot efficiently tonight, and nabbed 7 rebounds. He\u2019s just not the most impactful player, and I doubt he will be on the squad next year, but I will forever be an Oscar Tshiebwe fan.<\/p>\n
Blake is such a good shooter that the Jazz couldn\u2019t risk him getting too much playing time tonight. He played 5 minutes before he was pulled, and he wouldn\u2019t return until the game was safely out of reach. When he returned he secured the triple double for Konchar, and immediately followed it up with a steal, and a 3 ball. 10 points in 11 minutes, with 3 assists is awesome. What a great pickup Hinson has been for the Jazz.<\/p>\n
Jordan Poole\/Jeremiah Fears – A+<\/p>\n
Poole, and Fears saved this game for the Pelicans, who found themselves down by double digits at the end of the first quarter. That\u2019s when Poole, and Fears locked in and dropped 34, and 40 respectively. Jazz nation is forever in their debt!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jazz lose. Nets win.
