The jury remains out on whether we'd be better off with Rubio than Teague. But of course, that's water under the bridge. I was troubled more by how slow and ineffective Taj looked on both ends of the court. I was also troubled by KAT continuing last season's pattern of holding the ball way too long and his multiple defensive lapses. Gorgui had the worst game I think I've ever seen from him. Maybe he's unhappy with his bench role, but no excuse for how poorly he played last night. I liked Butler's defense and swagger last night. But he didn't exactly step up with a big game. And he has to realize that he's not a Harden, Westbrook or Durant on the offensive end. So he might want to consider getting the ball to Teague when Teague calls for it to initiate the offense.
I want to see this team come come out with fire in their bellies and blow Utah off the court tomorrow night.
