The level of competition hangs over actual, serious analysis of this game: breaking down a 50-point win over an Australian team probably is more likely to produce wrong conclusions than it is right ones. Remember last year’s 50-point win over Perth? Grayson Allen led the team in scoring, Alec Burks finished second with 18 points, and the Jazz used three-guard lineups with Allen, Burks, and Dante Exum. Want to know how much time those three players played together in the regular season? Ten minutes. All year long.
So given the massive caveat that Adelaide was tiny, undisciplined, and had holes in their defense throughout, what can you learn?
