Joe Ingles, asked if he plays better when starting, responds with his traditional: “I don’t care.” Eventually acknowledged coming off the bench was an adjustment, and that starting is fun, but that he enjoys his new role: “Coming off the bench and jacking up a bunch of 3s.” – 11:44 PM

Notre Dame freshman Blake Wesley had 24 points on 9-of-12 vs. Illinois. Used often as lead ball-handler due to burst at POA to put pressure on defense. Quick off bounce, tough scorer in lane. Came in averaging 10.8 points in just 19 min, 8-21 3PT. Add him to watch lists. pic.twitter.com/JVZjiMobHe – 11:42 PM

Quin Snyder was pleased with how the Jazz executed their defense on Dame tonight — Mike Conley and help defense did a good job of limiting the looks he got. Said the only real defensive letdown of the game was 3Q when Simons got a ton of open looks. – 11:31 PM

Jazz beat Blazers 129-107.
Rudy Gobert was incredible defensively, and also had 21 points, 16 rebs. Donovan Mitchell had a nice night as well, 30 points, 5 assists, 12-20 FG. Blazers defense woeful.

Blazers 23, Utah 21: end of first quarter. 9 points, 2 rebounds for @CJ McCollum. 4 points, 3 assists/rebounds, 1 block for @Damian Lillard. POR shooting 45 percent, UTA 35 percent. – 9:35 PM

End 1Q: Blazers 23, Jazz 21. After some extraordinarily sketchy possessions (like, say, the pervious one), JC makes a great feed to Rudy for a dunk before the horn. Utah had 8 assists on 9 baskets, but much of the shot selection was iffy. – 9:35 PM

Blazers go on a 16-5 run, with the bench doing most of the damage, to take a 21-13 lead with 1:42 to play in the first quarter. Things looking up after a dreadful start for both teams. – 9:30 PM

Well, the defense has collapsed, and the offense is back to disaster status. JC uses up a whole possession going 1on1, Don drives and then, instead of kicking to Bogey in the corner, dumps it back to Hassan? Jazz now trail 21-13 w/1:42 left 1Q. Utah shooting 6-22. – 9:30 PM

And then excellent defense (again) on the next possession — first, Rudy staying with CJ on the switch, then bothering RoCo to such a degree that his high-arcing runner wound up going over the backboard. Blazers shooting 2-8, have 3 turnovers. Jazz lead 9-5 with 6:45 left 1Q. – 9:19 PM

Absolutely one of the best defensive possessions you’ll ever see and never hear about.
Rudy Gobert sticks CJ McCollum, one of the league’s best ball handlers, then forces Robert Covington to shoot the ball over the backboard due to his length.
Absurdly disruptive. – 9:18 PM

Hot take: I think Conley’s a better defender on Lillard than O’Neale because he’s better at sticking with him through screens.
(Mitchell’s digs good so far too) – 9:13 PM

Lol dude passes Knute Rockne then bounces for the 3rd-best job in the SEC while his 6th-ranked 11-1 team knocks on the CFP door in a wide open year.

So that makes, what, five top-10 jobs open this fall in college football? (LSU, USC, Florida, Oklahoma, Notre Dame.) Plus we had UNC, Indiana, Texas, Oklahoma and Arizona in men’s basketball, plus Oklahoma, Baylor and LSU in women’s basketball. And we might not be done? – 8:18 PM

I don’t think Oregon is making up 31 points. Take away the Covey punt return TD, and I don’t think Oregon is making up 24 either.
Close game. someone might crack 30, but either way, Utah. – 4:09 PM
