David Locke and Ron Boone bring you POSTCAST after every Utah Jazz game
The Utah Jazz's lackluster performance against the Detroit Pistons raises questions about the team's energy and focus during a lengthy homestand. David Locke, radio voice of the Utah Jazz and Jazz NBA Insider, and Ron dissect the Jazz's 28-point loss, highlighting the team's turnover issues and defensive struggles. Despite the 15-46 record, this game stands out as particularly disappointing, contrasting with the team's usual effort and fan support.
Kyle Filipowski's career-high 25 points spark a debate about his defensive capabilities and positional fit. The hosts praise Filipowski's improved three-point shooting but express concern over his ability to defend in the paint. Walker Kessler and Collin Sexton receive reliability pluses, along with Filipowski, for their contributions. The episode concludes with speculation about coach Will Hardy's potential response to the team's poor showing and the challenges of maintaining consistency during a rebuilding season.
