The Utah Jazz got off to a slow start Monday in New Orleans. Once they ran and spaced, though, they wound up making 19 3-pointers — putting an end to a streak of games in which they were neither prolific nor efficient from beyond the arc. sltrib.com/sports/jazz/20… – 1:19 AM

Donovan Mitchell: “Herb Jones I think is going to be in this league for a long time. You’ve got to give him his props. He’s made it tough for me every night we played them. He’s doesn’t talk much or say much, but goes out there and competes. He comes to work and does his thing.” – 11:36 PM

Mike Conley on Herb Jones: “(He’s guarding) some of the best players in the league, guys like Donovan (Mitchell). The way he moves, it’s obvious he’s a natural defender, but he seems like he really watches film and really studies the game. It’s been fun to compete against him.” – 11:16 PM

Donovan Mitchell, giving a shout-out to a Pelicans rookie: “Herb Jones is gonna be in this league for a long time. Every time we’ve played ’em, he’s made it tough on me. … He’s a hell of a kid. I mean, we’re the same age, but whatever.” – 11:02 PM

Donovan Mitchell: Herb Jones is going to be in this league for a long time. Defensively, he’s tough. I want to give him his props for that. He makes you work, and he makes you think. He’s a hell of a player and he makes life hard for scorers like myself – 11:02 PM

Donovan Mitchell, on what the difference was in the Jazz’s shooting tonight: “The screw-it mentality, just letting it fly, letting shots go. … I said it after the game, sometimes the best reads are just, ‘Shoot it.’” – 11:01 PM

Quin was a little annoyed by the suggestion that the Jazz have to fundamentally do anything different with Gobert/Whiteside out: “So we actually have to defend when Rudy isn’t in there? … We just need to be determined to stay in front, no matter who’s on the court.” – 10:50 PM

Quin said the Jazz finding their energy and getting out in transition contributed to the 19-39 shooting on 3s: “We’re not like the Showtime Lakers, running for layups and dunks — we’re running for space to make shots easier.” – 10:48 PM

That was the best defensive possession from the Jazz in two games. Great at the POA. Rotations were crisp. Gobert contested at the rim. The others gang rebounded. Textbook possession that the Jazz need more of – 10:19 PM

First Willie tech of the year!?
Willie Green is HOT on that no-call at the rim as Brandon Ingram attacked Rudy Gobert.
That’s gotta be the angriest we’ve seen him. – 10:19 PM

Willie Green picks up his first technical foul of the season. He was halfway on the court after that non-call against Rudy Gobert.
This might be the most angry we’ve seen Willie get all year. – 10:19 PM

Brandon Ingram looked to have been fouled but no foul was whistled on Rudy Gobert. And Willie Green just got a technical foul for arguing on behalf of his star player. – 10:18 PM

Brandon Ingram finally got a bucket to go to give him his second field goal of the game. He’s 2-11 from the field.
Before that one, he hadn’t made a shot since the 7:29 mark in the 1st quarter. – 10:13 PM

Pelicans have just two scorers in double digits (Valanciunas, Herb). The Jazz, five.
Brandon Ingram & Josh Hart have combined for just 11 points (on 3-15 shooting) through 3+ quarters. Just average nights offensively by them and this game probably feels very different right now. – 10:04 PM

Referees reverse the goaltending call on Jaxson Hayes on replay — he touched it before the ball hit the backboard. The Pelicans trail the Jazz 82-77 and we’re headed to the 4th quarter.
Utah has lost the last two replay challenges. Let’s see them drop this game next. 😈 – 9:59 PM

Jazz is up 84-77 at the end of the 3Q — Holtkamp called a goaltend on the final layup.
Conley had 18/7/6 — maybe there’s a chance at a Jazz triple-double? Bogdanovic had 14 in the 3Q.
But wait, the goaltend is being challenged? – 9:56 PM

End 3Q: Jazz 82, Pelicans 77. No boxout by the small-ball Jazz after a late NO miss, leading to an easy putback. Just too many simple details missed with that lineup. Mike has 18/7/6a. – 9:55 PM

Rudy Gobert completely ran over Jose Alvarado and legitimately thought the officials were going to overturn the charge on replay.
Call stands.
Pelicans still hanging around at 73-80, but they’re going to need to find some consistent offense very soon. – 9:52 PM

Herb Jones absorbs Mitchell’s driving force in the hips, turns and runs with him while keeping his arms up, then lets Mitchell essentially give him the ball. Plus, the last step on Rudy for the finish.

Alvarado just simply got in front of Gobert and fell down. Those gotta stop being offensive fouls. Gobert is entitled to his space – 9:50 PM

Jose Alvarado is picking up Mike Conley fullcourt on defense, which is a staple of Alvarado’s game. Jazz challenged offensive foul against Gobert, which would be his fourth – 9:50 PM

Rudy Gobert looked at Quin Snyder and told him to challenge that call right away. Looked at Quin and said, “That’s my 4th (foul).”
