GT: Soulful Jazz (@ Raps)

[RAPresenting]

M Williams, this year:

- 1st game, vs Dallas/Marion: 29 minutes, 7/13, 5/5 FTs, 21 pts, 3 RBs, 1 STL, 1 BLK
- In 24 minutes vs LAL/Metta WP (massive compared to Ross), 4/7, 3/3FTs, 11 pts, 4 RBs, 2 Stls
- Last game vs Phx/Beasley, 5/10, 13 pts, 7 RBs

All of those guys with much more experience, and MUCH more size and strength than TRoss. Put TRoss out there against Williams and Corbin will have Williams posting up every play and he'll likely be 1st or 2nd option all night.

Look, Ross isn't built like a LeBron. He's very slight right now and the coach has to pick his spots where he throws Ross to the wolves. Kobe,,,,,, KOBE for heaven's sake, played in 2 games (14,17) over 8 minutes in his first 10, and by the end of the year, only averaged 15 minutes. Was his progress hampered by bringing him along one step at a time?

Ross would have a tough time with Williams size agreed.

Good comparison to Kobe's development and playing time in year one. Someone might point out that Kobe was a teenager (18 I believe) and coming out of high school while Ross is 21...

Lets pray for this (5% probability).

I don't recall Marvin Williams ever using his size to dominate anyone. Perhaps we're giving him too much credit based on nothing more than his measurements. With Mo Williams healthy, Marvin is easily the 5th option for Utah. Tonight, he's barely above Tinsley in the pecking order (a guy who played 40 minutes on Saturday and didn't score a single point).

I think Kleiza hates mormons so he kills the Jazz whenever he can. LOL

Hayward vs Demar should be a nice match up as both will look to put the other in foul trouble. Really hoping for Mo Williams to have an off night shooting the ball as Jose won't be able to get around those picks by the Jazz bigs. Article on Kleiza was a nice read and fingers crossed that it's another similar outing for him tonight off the bench.

[RAPresenting]

amazing!

[RAPresenting]

I think I'd like Ross starting over either McGuire or Kleiza.

I'm on board with this idea

[ceez]

"marvin williams" and "dominate" don't really belong in the same sentence

[wallz]

Ya I don't like the raptors chances this game. Utah is suited well to blow us out.

You're probably right.. But the Raptors are due for a random upset game. Hopefully it comes tonight with all the injuries

[Nilanka]

Marvin Williams starts for the Jazz would be mismatch to start the game. I like starting DM too. Ross and Klieza to come out big tonight!

Kleiza goes off tonight... for 42

[wtfraps]

Kleiza's number
Jan 17, 2008: 41 points, 9 rebounds, 4 threes, 11/14 FTs, and a bunch assists as a member of the Denver Nuggets

lol wtf

also Ceez, that pic was amazing.

[ceez]

JV vs Kanter will be fun to watch
