Game 10 Takeways – Utah Jazz vs Toronto Raptors

November 7, 2018 by Kelby Jones Leave a Comment

Game 10 Takeaways - Utah Jazz vs Toronto Raptors

Game 10 Takeaways – Utah Jazz vs Toronto Raptors

Jazz drop another and remain winless at home this season.

The Utah Jazz welcomed the Toronto Raptors to Salt Lake City Monday night for the first matchup between these two squads this year.

Toronto was without star Kawhi Leonard (just like most of our other opponents have been without their star…) and on the second game of a back-to-back this road trip.

These two factors left Jazz fans thinking this could be a drop game for the Raptors. However, this early in the year and with a new-look team and organization, the last thing Toronto was looking to do was let one slip away.

Toronto ends up winning this one on the road in Utah 124-111 to become the first NBA team to reach 10 wins this year.

Watch the full game highlights below:


Game 10 Takeaways – Utah Jazz vs Toronto Raptors

Quick Notes

#1 | Shoot The … nvm

Here’s some of Utah’s shooting numbers against Toronto:

FG% – 44.2% (38/86)

3P% – 25.8% (8/31)

FT% – 65.9% (27/41)

I’m sorry but this just isn’t going to cut it if we want to be able to hang with other top-tier teams in the west.

What do you think? Should Utah make a move or should they stand pat and wait for it to start clicking again?

#2 | Good Teams Play Defense… Right?

Let’s take a look at the +/- for three of the Utah’s starters against Toronto:

Joe Ingles: -20

Derrick Favors: -22

Ricky Rubio: -22

I don’t really have anything real to say about this. Just wanted to point it out…

#3 | Rule Change to Blame?

We mentioned in a previous podcast that the new rule changes which the NBA had implemented may actually help the Jazz.

We may have spoke too soon…

In a recent story published by The Deseret News, Rudy Gobert explained how he felt the new NBA defense rules are hurting the team’s ability to defend as a unit.

“A lot. I think it impacts everyone,” Gobert said. “We want to be a physical team and we want to impact the other team’s movement. It’s a big change and it’s hard with all those screens and guards that are using that as an advantage to get fouled. It’s hard, but it’s the same for everyone so we have to adapt.”

Will this be a continuing issue for the team moving forward? Let’s hope Quin has the answer.

#4 | The Right Piece

I mentioned this earlier, but does the Utah Jazz organization need to bring in one more piece this season? I really want to know your thoughts and suggestions for good players who may fit well in Utah’s system.

#5 | Threat Level Midnight

At what point do we decide to freak out a little bit as a fan base?

How many games do we need to lose before it’s appropriate to start getting mad?

Oh, and should we ever BOO the home team?

Hopefully I can stop asking myself these questions soon and start asking how long until the playoffs start.

Takeaways From The Utah Jazz vs Toronto Raptors Preseason Matchup

October 3, 2018 by Jazz Fan Show Leave a Comment

Takeaways From The Utah Jazz vs Toronto Raptors Preseason Matchup

Utah Jazz vs Toronto Raptors – Jazz Go 2-0 in Preseason

The Toronto Raptors and their newly-acquired superstar Kawhi Leonard came into Salt Lake City on October 3, 2018 to face the Utah Jazz in a preseason matchup. The Utah Jazz won their second straight game of the preseason by a final score of 105-90.

CLICK HERE to see the summary of this game.


Our Takeaways From The Utah Jazz vs Toronto Raptors Preseason Matchup

In no particular order…

#1 | Grayson Allen (yet again)

The guy came back to reality a little this time around. But what I did like was the fact that it was his second straight game committing a foul within the first ten seconds of coming in off the bench.

#2 | Kawhi’s in The League Again

The guy looks like he’s back. There were a few and-one plays where I was genuinely impressed at how not-rusty the guy looked.

I honestly could see him having a huge year this upcoming season. He”ll be a free agent next summer and he’s gotta prove to the league that he’s worth the max deal.

I see him destroying it this year in the weak eastern conference (barring injury, of course).

#3 | Turnovers and the Single Bad Quarter

Last season the Jazz always seemed to have one bad quarter per game. Fortunately, in most cases we were able to overcome these awful stretches.

I was really hoping we’d see less of this in the upcoming year. So you can imagine my concern when the Jazz seemed to be on different levels that entire second quarter.

#4 | Red Shoes

I don’t really have a reason for being curious about this other than the fact that Donovan Mitchell’s shoes were the exact same color as the Toronto Raptors jerseys.

#5 | Do The Jazz Win if The Raptors Play Starters After Second Half?

This is the ultimate question.

With a lead at the half, Toronto decided to sit Kyle Lowry and Kawhi Leonard for the duration of the second half. During that time, The Jazz made their huge run and eventually went on to win the game.

I can’t wait to see how this team responds to those nights when they’re down like they were tonight.

Hopefully we’re able to see similar results to those from this otherwise meaningless matchup.
