Game 10 Takeways – Utah Jazz vs Toronto Raptors

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.

Submit your suggestions via Twitter (@JazzFanShow)

#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.

Game 09 Takeaways – Utah Jazz at Denver Nuggets

Game 09 Takeaways - Utah Jazz at Denver Nuggets

Game 09 Takeaways – Utah Jazz at Denver Nuggets

Jazz Fall Apart in 4th Quarter, Move to 4-5 on Season.

The Jazz played the second game of a (second) back-to-back Saturday night in Denver. Utah’s second game in as many nights came against a red-hot Denver Nuggets teams currently 8-1 on the year.

Donovan Mitchell returned for the Utah Jazz after missing the previous game against Memphis with a tight hamstring. Donovan, along with three other Jazz players (mentioned below) all experienced injuries at one time or another that looked serious.

Luckily for the Jazz, none of these injuries ended up as bad as they looked. The game, on the other hand, was another story.

Utah Jazz lose their third straight game in Denver 102-88.

Watch the full game highlights below:

Game 09 Takeaways – Utah Jazz at Denver Nuggets

Quick Notes

#1 | Win the Games You SHOULD Win

…and when you lose the games you should lose, nobody will care as much…

I don’t think it’s Threat Level Midnight yet, but there are definitely some Jazz fans panicking.

Should we be panicking? If not, at what point should we?

#2 | A Silver Lining… Of Sorts…

At different points during this game, Rudy Gobert, Joe Ingles, Donovan Mitchell and Dante Exum all looked like they could have sustained serious (potentially season-ending) injuries.

Luckily for the Jazz, each of these players were able to return to the game at some point or another.

My question is how long can these Jazz players take this kind of abuse night in and night out? Was Denver just a fluke game, or is this how teams play the Jazz moving forward?

#3 | A Tale of Four Quarters

Game 09 Takeaways - Utah Jazz at Denver Nuggets

In case you were wondering at what EXACT moment things went back for the Jazz…

#4 | #RememberLastYear

Remember how last year Utah started off really slow, and at one point was in the cellar of the Western Conference?

What happened immediately following that?

Oh that’s right…

Is that what is happening this year also? Is there something to say about players just taking awhile to get back into NBA basketball shape, regardless of what team or teammates they played with the year prior?

When you think about it, all these players went away for the summer, came back, adjusted to the elevation, then went on a huge road trip to cities at or below seal level, then came back to the elevation…

That’s an excuse, but still.

#5 | Looking Ahead

The Jazz have three games this week, two of which they should (probably) lose.

Is Dallas a MUST-WIN game? Are we already seeing a MUST-WIN game this early in the season?

Ugh.

Game 09 Takeaways – Utah Jazz at Denver Nuggets

Prop Results

Probably should mention that none of made any prop picks this game. Trust us, we have a good reason why (we forgot).

Thus, we all have been forced to use the prior game’s picks for this game.

May God help us all.

Game 08 Takeaways – Utah Jazz vs Memphis Grizzlies

Game 08 Takeaways - Utah Jazz vs Memphis Grizzlies

Game 08 Takeaways – Utah Jazz vs Memphis Grizzlies

Round two ends with the same result as round one…

The Utah Jazz returned from its first full-fledged road trip of the season Wednesday evening. There waiting for them, the Memphis Grizzlies and a shot at redemption after the Jazz flubbed the first matchup between the western conference foes.

Those expecting this game to go differently than the first were disappointed yet again, as the game seemed to follow a similar trajectory. The Jazz fell behind early, but not be enough to cause any real alarm. Eventually, Memphis slowed things down to a screeching halt and a last-chance attempt for a come back falls just short.

Memphis ends up leaving Salt Lake City with a second win against the Utah Jazz 110-100.

Watch the full game highlights below:

Game 08 Takeaways – Utah Jazz vs Memphis Grizzlies

Quick Notes

#1 | Free Throws, Free Throws, Free Throws

For my first point, let me present my first article of evidence:

Yep. The Jazz shot 56% from the free throw line.

Free throws seem to have become a bit of an issue for the Utah Jazz this year. It’s getting to the point where I want to buy floor-level seats underneath the hoop just so I can hold up this sign:

I think it will help.

#2 | Donovan and AB Out

Having Donovan out for this game was one thing. But I think we may have missed Alec Burks even more.

Why?

When the Jazz can’t get things going because the other team has slowed things down to a molasses-like pace, Alec Burks is the spark that can ignite the offense.

When Alec Burks is out, this team seems to lack the scoring off the bench that is needed when you face such defensive-minded teams like Memphis.

PS – I recently heard of a trade that could work in the Jazz favor:

Yes or no??

#3 | Jae Crowder in Crunch Time

It seems that when the Jazz get into situations where they need players in the game who they know will come through no matter what, they’ve been relying heavily on one Jae Crowder.

Here’s my question…

How long can the Jazz rely on Jae Crowder in crunch time?

We’ve seen that he can play. We’ve seen that he fits in. But have we seen long-lasting health and consistency from Jae?

Here’s hoping the Jazz can figure out a way to relieve some of that weight which has been placed on Jae’s shoulders.

#4 | Refs and Adjusting Calls Based on Situation

If the refs are calling a game really tight, and it gets to the point where many players have enough fouls to be taken out of the game for fear of ejection, should they stop calling the game so tightly… mid game?

This is a question I’ve been asking myself a lot lately. The rules say no. Emotion says yes.

Maybe this is a good topic for Coach Phil to handle…

#5 | How Good is Memphis Really?

Here’s the truth: Memphis STUNK last season.

It was a well-known fact they were tanking in an attempt to get a good draft pick. PLUS, many of their go-to players were injured and out for the year.

Going into this season, I think many people thought the Grizzlies would be at about the same level, which as we’ve witnessed in Utah, is far from the case.

So how good is Memphis? Will they be able to steal one of the precious playoff spots from Utah?

Game 04 Takeaways - Utah Jazz @ Houston Rockets

Game 04 Takeaways – Utah Jazz @ Houston Rockets

Utah Jazz Steal One on the Road as Mitchell Finally Breaks Out

The Utah Jazz began a four-game road trip yesterday against the Houston Rockets. The game is the first since Utah lost to Memphis at home earlier this week.

Many were wondering how this game would go following the Memphis debacle. Would the Jazz figure out their offensive woes? Did Donovan forget how to play basketball? Would the Jazz ever win again?!

Luckily, Chris Paul was suspended for a recent altercation between Houston and Los Angeles (I’m sure you heard…) and James Harden left in the fourth quarter with a hamstring issue.

The Utah Jazz were able to leave Houston with an important 100-89 win over the Rockets.

Now I’m not saying those two factors were the ENTIRE reason the Jazz won, but it definitely helped. #OntoTheNextOne

Watch the video below to see full Utah Jazz @ Houston Rockets game highlights:

Game 04 Takeaways – Utah Jazz @ Houston Rockets

Quick Notes

#1 | Donovan Finally Wakes Up

One of the things I was most looking forward to seeing this season was how Donovan Mitchell would perform after all the pressure that came with his incredible rookie year.

While I expected there to be some setbacks, the first few games of the year had me sweating a little bit about the amount of pressure we were putting on Donovan.

Fortunately, any question I had about the sophomore was put to rest last night as he went off for 38 points against Houston.

After the game, Donovan explained some of the issues he’s been dealing with going into his second year.

“The past few games, I’d been struggling because I’d been kind of pressing the issue,” Mitchell said. “I came into [Wednesday’s game] with the mindset of just finding the open guy. That was really my biggest thing. Last year in the playoffs, there were games where I got too deep or too whatever, just kind of not making the right plays. To me, just being able to make the right reads early just allowed me to settle down and relax a little bit.

“I always put pressure on myself, whether it was last year at the beginning of the year or whatever, just to be perfect. Obviously, that’s impossible.”

We should all have the same attitude about this team.

Instead of incredibly high expectations, we should realize the game itself isn’t perfect, and neither will our team be.

Enjoy the ride people. It will be over before we know it!

#2 | How Much Did We Need This?

After attending Monday’s loss to Memphis at home, I personally needed this win more than most.

As a fan base, I don’t know that anyone was TOO concerned with some of the results we’d seen through the first week of regular season basketball.

However, I think there was a growing anxiety over the individual play of certain Jazz men.

It was good to see this type of win on the road at this moment in the season. I think it really helped the fan base get back on track in terms of supporting our team.

Now let’s keep it going!

#3 | …It’s More of a One-Headed Monster

Chris Paul was sitting out after last weekend’s altercation with Rajon Rondo and the Los Angeles Lakers.

James Harden, who was having a great game (as always), left the game with a hamstring issue in the fourth quarter.

Basically all the Jazz had left to deal with was… Carmelo Anthony?

What I’m trying to say is that I’m not actually sure how much of a test this game was. A healthy Houston team could be a whole different monster.

#4 | Tricky (to talk about) Ricky

Let me start this out by saying that I very much like Ricky Rubio on the Jazz and think he fits in very well.

But I can’t be the only one to see that he’s having some serious struggles to start off the year, right?

This time last season, I remember having similar thoughts. In fact, there was a time I even thought he’d be a good trade piece.

Is Ricky Rubio just going through the same stuff he was last year?

Will we see the return to normal?

I hope we find out sooner rather than later.

#5 | Rookies, Am I Right?

Grayson Allen is not afraid to shoot.

The dude has been in for single-digit minutes over the entire year combined. But last night, I watched him enter the game, shoot two threes and walk right back to the bench.

Is no hesitation a good or bad sign?

Takeaways From the Utah Jazz Meet The Team Event

Takeaways From the Utah Jazz Meet The Team Event

Kelby’s takeaways from the Utah Jazz Meet The Team Event.

The Utah Jazz Meet The Team event went off without a hitch Friday evening. The beginning-of-year fan night experience sees small changes in format year to year, but this season’s event was one for the books.

For an overview of the Utah Jazz Meet The Team Event, CLICK HERE.

First Thing’s First – Utah Jazz Meet The Team Event.

First off, I know it’s a bit of a stretch to try and find takeaways from the friggin’ FAN NIGHT, but that’s the kind of thing we do at The Jazz Fan Show.

Without further adieu, my takeaways:

#1 | SO MANY Utah Jazz Fans

I arrived at Vivint Smart Home around 3:30 PM to record some segment for an upcoming episode of The Jazz Fan Show. I miraculously found free street parking next to the steps on the northwest corner of the arena.

As I came around the corner, I was surprised to find a line of people waiting for the doors to open… at 5:00 PM.

Now, I know an hour and a half isn’t actually that long, but this wasn’t for a game. This was a FAN NIGHT.

Pretty impressive.

As the night moved forward, the entire lower bowl of the stadium filled up. To my surprise, the first few rows of the upper bowl were also full.

We love this team, plain and simple. They work hard, win games and never back down.

But I think a lot of that love lies in how the team interacts with each other. We’re all friends when it comes to our Utah Jazz.

That will never change.

#2 | Still Looking Good in Purple

It was rumored ahead of the Utah Jazz Meet The Team Event that players would be showing off their new Classic Edition Purple uniforms.

Even though I knew the purple was coming, it was still almost overwhelming to see the jerseys in person. I felt it my chest.

It literally gave me chills.

“We look good in purple,” Jazz coach Quin Snyder said.

I think all of here at The Jazz Fan Show agree.

#3 | Offseason (of Nothing) Was Good To Us

When Jae Crowder was acquired from the Cleveland Cavaliers for Rodney Hood, I have to admit I had my concerns. He just didn’t look good in Cleveland, which was surprising following his time in Boston the previous year.

Again, as happens so often in my life, I was forced to admit I was wrong almost immediately.

After seeing what Jae did during the final stretch of last season, I could see some serious potential.

“Give him an offseason with the Jazz coaching staff and I think he’s gonna make a big improvement,” I’d always say (mostly to people who didn’t want to be talking to me about basketball).

It already looks like that offseason is paying off. Jae is noticeably thinner and moving around better. I can’t wait to see how his role evolves throughout the year.

Derrick Favors also came into camp in even better shape than his already surprising transformation last season. Could it be that chasing kids around the house all summer is better for you than we thought?

#4 | Taking a Shot In The Dark (Hey-oh)

There were a few things I wanted to see improvement in almost immediately this upcoming season. One of those things was the shooting of one Dante Exum.

Coming off shoulder surgery last season following an injury-plagued career, Dante’s shot looked like the rust may have done permanent damage to those shooting mechanics.

But I’m happy to say he was absolutely lighting it up during the 3-point shooting competition, along with Ricky Rubio, who has improved his shot exponentially since arriving in Utah.

Can’t wait to see how Dante improves after an offseason of health.

#5 | Watching Grown Men Dance Badly

I hate this, and that is a MASSIVE understatement.

I literally had to turn my head and pretend it wasn’t happening.
