The Jazz’s “second unit” filled up with confidence in Phoenix | NBA

Last week, the Warriors were surprised at home by Pacers yet deprived of their major elements. The Suns almost suffered the same fate last night with the reception of the Jazz. The latter showed up in Phoenix without his five major (Donovan Mitchell, Rudy Gobert, Mike Conley, Bojan Bogdanovic and Royce O’Neale) and one of his best replacements (Joe Ingles).

The Suns, however, had all the trouble in the world to enforce the hierarchy. “ We had a good start to the match and then we relaxed a bit. These guys were ready to play. They took advantage of this opportunity and were aggressive and confident. Once they gained confidence they were a little harder to stop“, thus describes Devin Booker.

Confidence has indeed been the key word for Quin Snyder’s troupe. He considers that it is linked to the fact of ” play hard and play together “. ” You spark that confidence by having an identity, and our collective identity has been fluctuating this year. So this confidence will come when we chain the performances“, predicts the coachaccording to whom his players did not lack toughness in Arizona.

Perhaps the best illustration of this mentality is Trent Forrest. This undrafted player in 2020 signed the match of his life with 17 points (8/12) and 6 rebounds in 36 minutes of play. A great performance for this player who had never reached ten points scored in a season and a half with Jazz. Opposed to one of the best point guards in history, Chris Paul, Mike Conley’s replacement shone with his qualities as a finisher near the circle.

One of my coaches told me that I was more confident when I was aggressive in defence, whether that was collecting balls or trying to disrupt the opposition. I’m the best in this kind of situation “, Estimates the 23-year-old leader, who for example “countered” a pass from “CP3” before finishing on the counterattack.

Alongside him, six other Jazz players passed the ten-point mark. With his 22 units, Jordan Clarkson was the most inspired even though he iNFLated his total in the final moments, with three missiles converted in an attempt to keep the Jazz’s hopes alive.

Holder of a ten-day contract, Danuel House Jr, who also showed himself to his advantage (14 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 blocks and 2 steals), enjoyed the longest playing time in this match (43 minutes). The former Rockets player credits his and his teammates with achieving this performance thanks to their coach, Quin Snyder. ” He wants everyone to have the same energy, everyone to be on top and successful because that’s the kind of person he is. “, he lists.

With such energy deployed, and the gradual return of executives, Utah should have no trouble raising the bar after this eighth defeat in ten games. “ It’s something our team must continue to replicate night after night. Playing with this level of intensity is under our control “, ends Quin Snyder.
