I wanna give the Jazz the benefit of the doubt here, and say that they can make a series out of this, but the one player that could actually control their runs (Conley) is out, indefinitely. He's the only guy on their squad who had any hope of countering Jokic, who's basically a basketball-Hecatoncheires.

:mjlol:

I'm thinking if Donovan Mitchell is the best player in the series then they will find a way to win some games but they have a lot of defensive options to cover him so it may be tough. Gobert will have to negate Jokic, which might actually might be a better and easier matchup for Gobert than covering super athletic guys like Capela or finesse guys like AD. Off ball defense will have to be on point so you force Jokic to score instead of pass.

Conley guarding Murray would've been pretty helpful, I think they'd cancel each other out. With Conley out, Murray will be the X factor, if he can dominate his matchup then I think there's nothing the Jazz can do to counter that.

Gobert is playing horrible defense on Jokic. He's making me look like an idiot. This series might be over faster than I thought.
