In Sunday night’s win in Denver, which broke a four-game losing streak, the Utah Jazz not only stepped up their defense, they also appeared to improve their communication — both in-game and otherwise. sltrib.com/sports/jazz/20… – 1:29 AM

Before I forget that it happened, just want to say that during a free throw Joe Ingles was trying to sneakily pull down Aaron Gordon’s shooting sleeve over and over. Just want to keep that one noted for when Jazz fans complain later about those kinds of tricks from other players. – 11:42 PM

Utah finished with 29 free throws to Denver’s 8 tonight. Aaron Gordon on Jokic’s 3 FT attempts tonight: “It’s not even right. He’s fouled every play.
… He’s just not officiated the same way as everybody else. It’s not right. He’s the reigning MVP of the league.” – 11:26 PM

Denver was on its 3rd game in 4 nights, Utah was rested and trying to end a losing streak. Denver still took a lead late in the third before the bench fell apart (they played a lot last night, keep in mind). Same holes still remain for the Nuggets tho, and they’re hard to patch. – 10:18 PM

Joe Ingles just walked out for his warmup holding a drink, walked right up to Jeff Green posting up, and tried to kick the ball out of his hands.
The two shared a laugh and a hug. Former Jazz teammates. – 6:46 PM

Quin Snyder said that both Rudy G’s will probably play around their normal minutes. He wants to see how they look coming back, and in the altitude at Denver, but, “I want them to push themselves.” – 6:39 PM

Quin Snyder said that a couple of positives from the past few games are that the turnovers have been down, and the Jazz are gaining a better understanding of how best to space the court in small-ball lineups. – 6:37 PM

Michael Malone, asked by @ChrisMarlowe what it’s like to coach Bones, called it joyful. Said when he’s rolling, he’s the happiest guy out there, dancing & blowing kisses. When he’s not, said he turns quiet — “a bad poker player.” Challenged him to find happy medium. – 6:25 PM

Malone: “It’s evident the last 4 games how important Gobert is to the Jazz defense. They’ve lost 4 in a row and given up a high number of points, which is very un-Jazz-like.” – 6:23 PM

Michael Malone highlighted Bojan Bogdanovic as a Nuggets killer. Said last year he averaged 31 ppg in head to head matchups, had 36 last game vs Denver.
I expect Jeff Green to get the primary assignment. He’s a matchup Denver didn’t have last Utah game. – 6:21 PM

Michael Malone, on the previous meeting with the Jazz: “Everyone was so busy talking about Donovan Mitchell, and rightly so, Mike Conley, Joe Ingles, Rudy Gobert — [Bojan] Bogdanovic just kicked our butts. … We have to account for Bogdanovic tonight.” – 6:21 PM

The Jazz used to be the most machine-like efficient team in the league.
The Suns have taken that moniker now. They are just ruthlessly efficient in getting the shots they want. – 3:16 PM
