Oh, oh...did I just hear a smattering of boos as Rubio missed his 4th three of the night? He's been ice cold the past week. Is the SLC honeymoon on hiatus?

I don't care what Mitchell's shooting stats say, dude has game, and he can shoot. There is a learning curve. He just made a draw and kick pass? That I've seen Wig make twice in 4 years.

I still hate our offense. So much iso and little ball or player movement

So basically Wiggins can shoot 1 out of every 3 games?

Yeah, that was funny. He gave up finally and Rubio made a little half-hearted layup. Feel bad for the guy. He's really struggling.

Ouch.

Nice half from KAT and a big 3 at the end of the quarter from Teague...nice to see him dominate Rubio in a complete turnaround from their first meeting.

Now, can we hold the lead? You guys know what I'm concerned about. Thibs played his bench a whopping 22 minutes in the first half, while Utah's bench played 44. 5 minutes for Belly...really? I just don't get it. Maybe they can suck it up tonight and not cough it up like they did against the suns.

He's shooting 50% in the last 5 up to tonight.

Great half. Notably solid D from Wiggins. I noticed him making great rotations and help attempts when other players were dropping their guys. KAT taking advantage of no Gobert. Teague having lots of space against a supposed elite defender. Rubio still a gifted backup. Hope they keep up this play.

KAT has to pull the trigger on those open 3's. We absolutely need more volume on 3's, not all these drives where there are 11 guys in the paint (including the ref).

Oh, and I'm tired of the Wiggins post-ups. Designing plays for Wiggins to take contested turnarounds is an archaic play design. No one does that anymore Thibs! If had the strength to back a guy down, that's one thing. But 12 foot contested turnarounds....horrible shot!
