    with green being as athletic as he is why is he trying some wild reverse layup. that didnt need to be that difficult to finish

    Man I love GG but he doesnt deserve to be on the playoff roster.

    Not a bad first quarter. Also good lineups - glad to see the team isnt just playing nice or pandering to minutes quotas. Shumpert has not played well and Nene is not a good matchup here (he might prove useful yet in other matchups or series) and should be used for spot minutes here and there.

    Gordon is solid as well. But we look sloppy as a team.

    But he can get hot and has been proven to hit shots in the playoffs. Not afraid to shoot. Better than Shumpert passing wide open 3s.

    But agreed, he do some dumb sh** on occasion

    I mean, MDA is playing him. Using him as a back up 5 when Gobert is out of the line up is exactly how he should be used.

    A few more made 3s and we'd be up 10+

    Green and house look a bit erratic .

    Paul isn't in full gear yet (this is probably a good thing , old-timer has to warm up slowly)

    Rivers is gonna be dangerous .

    Harden is so good I don't know if any of my previous statements even matter (for this series) it's all on him , and he is very very good

    Jazz didn't score a field goal in last 5+ minutes, yet only 7 points lead. Not good for a team that can't hold leads in 4th quarter.
