Defense and Donovan Mitchell

October 27, 2019 by Aaron Ostler Leave a Comment

Defense and Donovan Mitchell - Utah Jazz Fan Show

As a family of Jazz fans put it on social media, “Our 182-day wait is over.” The NBA season finally descended on Salt Lake City last night, and it came with a bang. Not only was everyone excited about seeing this new-look Jazz team play in its first meaningful game but also Adam Silver was in the house that Larry built after announcing that the 2023 All-Star Game would be coming to Utah. The scene was set for an epic opener to the 2019-2020 season, and the Jazz did not disappoint.

There are multiple story lines that could be written about the game: Bojan Bogdanovic spraining his ankle, only to come back to hit a key three-pointer in the fourth quarter; Mike Conley going 1 for 16; or Emmanuel Mudiay looking more and more like a viable rotation piece. However, the two biggest story lines from this game, and the biggest reasons why I think the Jazz won the game, have got to be the team defense and Donovan Mitchell’s start to what I believe will be an all-star season. 

The Defense

Just last week, I noted how lethargic the Jazz’s defense was during the preseason. Not only did the Jazz finish dead last in defensive rating among all NBA teams but their defensive rating was also worse than some of the international teams that participated in the preseason. The Jazz’s defense (or lack thereof) was a big reason why they went 0 for against NBA teams during that stretch. There was a lot of discussion in the media about whether this Jazz team was even capable of being a top-10 defensive team with their new additions. 

Defense and Donovan Mitchell - Utah Jazz Fan Show

True to form, Rudy Gobert’s words of assurance came to fruition last night. The defense started out with a bang, only allowing the Thunder to score 12 points in the first quarter. While the Thunder did go off for 34 points in the second quarter, the Jazz held them to just 95 points for the game. If the Jazz hold teams to an average of 95 points per contest this season, they are going to win a lot of games. Some of the other impressive stats include holding the Thunder to 38.6% shooting percentage, only allowing 34 points in the paint, and having a defensive rating of 94.1. I am almost convinced that any team with Rudy Gobert in the middle coupled with Coach Q’s defensive scheme is automatically going to be a top-10 defensive squad. They are both that good.

Donovan Mitchell

If you are one of the few who hasn’t already bought a ticket for the Donovan Mitchell train, you better buy now before prices go up even higher. This kid never ceases to amaze. Let’s go over some of the things he wanted to work on in the offseason to see how he did in game one.

Defense and Donovan Mitchell - Utah Jazz Fan Show
  • Be more efficient: he went 14 for 22 – Check!
  • Make better decisions with the ball: only one turnover while being the primary ball handler in large stretches of the game – Check!
  • Be in better shape: while this one is difficult to tell since it was the first game of the season when everyone seems to have a bounce in his step, Donovan seemed to get stronger as the game went on, so I’m going to go – Check!

And for good measure, Donovan scored 32 points, got a career high 12 rebounds, and got his first career double-double. I’d say that’s not too shabby for one night’s work.

In Conclusion

While there are still a lot of questions to be answered on how this team is going to gel as the players get more familiar with one another, there are two things that look like they’ll be a constant on this team: Rudy anchoring a solid defense and Donovan continuing to amaze us with highlight plays and scoring.

Game #01 Overreactions – Utah Jazz vs Oklahoma City Thunder

October 24, 2019 by Kelby Jones Leave a Comment

We weren’t entirely sure what to expect from the first game of the season – Utah Jazz vs Oklahoma City Thunder. The hype was real, and the questions were plentiful.

How would Mike Conley do in his debut with the Utah Jazz?

Would Donovan Mitchell show us the typical third-year jump in production and efficiency?

How would Bojan Bogdanovic’s fitness and defense hold up after a less-than-stellar preseason?

The Quick Answers from Utah Jazz vs Oklahoma City Thunder

Luckily for Jazz fans, Donovan showed us he’s even more special and Bojan played through an ankle injury that looked pretty painful.

More importantly, the Utah Jazz picked up the win.

MOST importantly, the Utah Jazz Fan Show was there to witness it in person.

Utah Jazz vs Oklahoma City Thunder

Overreaction #1 – Donovan Mitchell’s Hot Start

Donovan Mitchell started the season off by solidifying his role as a leader on this team, scoring 32 points and grabbing 12 rebounds. Not to mention shooting a red-hot 63% from the field.

— Utah Jazz (@utahjazz) October 24, 2019

Fun Fact: Karl Malone wore number 32 and John Stockton wore number 12. Surprised you didn’t know that.

What’s most impressive is the fact that he didn’t even attempt a shot in the first quarter. He got his team involved and gave everyone a chance to eat.

Plus, when things got close in the end, everyone knew which Utah Jazz player would be handling the rock: Donovan Mitchell.

He did not disappoint.

Overreaction #2 – Conley Struggles, Mudiay Shines

Mike Conley shot just 1/16 from the field in his regular season Utah Jazz debut (headband curse??). That might seem concerning for most players, but after hitting a free throw late in the game, Mike Conley acknowledged the crowd and let everyone know he was fine.

The crowd showed their support in return.

“I was a little bit confused. I was like, ‘I don’t know what else to do. I got to get a layup or something,’ because it’s just, in and out, and in and out,” he said. “Even a lot of shots in the paint. They all felt good but they were short.”

“I might have been too excited for the first game or something, but if I’m a betting man, I probably won’t do that again,” he said.

While Conley may have struggled, Emmanuel Mudiay more than made up the slack.

It seemed his play got even better as the team began to falter in the fourth quarter. At one point, with his team down eight, Mudiay continuously went to the hole and finished through severe contact.

The scoring got the Jazz back in the game and on the path to an eventual win.

More importantly, it solidified the backup point guard role on this team for the foreseen future.

Overreaction #3 – Royce O’Neale is a Starter

I’ve always said Royce O’Neale shows up a lot more when he starts. Game one backed up my theory in a big way.

Royce went 6/6 from the field, including 2/2 from 3-point range, and finished the game with 14 points. Hard to ask for anything more from the guy.

I genuinely can’t wait to see how well he does as a starter this season. I also can’t wait to see if he out-earns what the Jazz can give him following the season…

Honorable Mention – Joe Ingles and Jeff Green Bromance

When Jeff Green came in off the bench and hit his first three in a Jazz uniform, nobody was happier for him than Joe Ingles. Additionally, the pair laughed and gave each other grief throughout the game, showing how comfortable the team is already becoming with each other.

Honorable Mention – Chris Paul is Still Good

Chris Paul played really well in this game. This could only be because he wants to get traded.

Nonetheless, the dude can still ball it up.

Honorable Mention – Double Chicken Myth BUSTED

Steven Adams missed four straight free throws in the fourth quarter. With the crowd going crazy from confusion surrounding how many free chicken sandwiches were in play, the arena announcer let everyone know they only get one.

While the news was disappointing, at least now we know.

Rudy Gobert’s Future is Crystal Clear

June 22, 2019 by Gretchen Devine Leave a Comment

No one delivers quite like Rudy Gobert when it comes to style.

Whether wearing a tailored suit, leopard print, or both, he always brings his A-game.

His fellow team-mates may not fully appreciate Rudy’s sartorial choices, but I believe they are worthy of appreciation.

Lately, Rudy has been rocking some literal rocks:

 

But these are more than a fashion statement.

They’re CRYSTALS.


Why Utah Jazz Fans Should Care About Rudy Gobert’s Crystals

What are crystals. and why should you, as a Jazz fan care? Well, I consulted what I assume would be the most accurate source for information on crystals (Gwyneth Paltrow’s GOOP website) and found this:

“Scientifically, crystals are the most orderly structure that exists in nature, meaning they have the lowest amount of entropy (a measurement of disorder). Crystals are structured in such a way that they respond to the inputs of all different energies around them, so they oscillate, emitting specific vibratory frequencies… Our ancestors intuitively knew that when worn, the energies of the stones would interact with the human electromagnetic field to bring about energetic changes.”

Meaning, these crystals could be a literal game-changer for Gobert. Could crystals give him an extra edge on the court? We have photo evidence of Rudy wearing these crystals on and off all season. They could be the source of some of his success. Three out of the four games he wore crystals heading into the stadium, the Jazz won. It could also be a potential source of failure. Crystals need specific care if they are to retain their energetic properties.

  • Crystals need to be cleaned to remove dense or stale energy. This can be accomplished by

    • burying them in the ground
    • purifying them in salt water
    • leave them out under the light of the full moon
    • burn sage and run the crystals through the smoke
  • You are not supposed to let other people touch your crystals as it may transfer their vibrations or energies leading it to be no longer attuned to you

  • There is also the slight chance that choosing the wrong crystal can actually have negative affects if you choose the wrong kind or if they’re not sourced ethically

So what does this mean for Rudy?

Can we guarantee that his crystals are connected to good vibes only?


Where Did Rudy Gobert Get These Crystals?

Not to worry. He got his crystals from none other than the king of crystals himself Spencer Pratt of Pratt Daddy Crystals:

You may know Spencer Pratt as one of the lead “villains” from The Hills, but he has turned over a new leaf and deals in good vibes only.  Rudy is one of Pratt Daddy’s key influencers, and as such has the inside track to all the best crystals.

So will Rudy’s game help the Jazz dominate via electromagnetic vibrations? All I know is that they won the the 4 game after wearing crystals on the 13th, so I say the odds are in his favor.
