Well, what adjustments do you think Quin made midgame? That was a playoff game last night where Quin didn't change his game plan. That doesn't mean he is a bad coach. Midway through the game the defense was smothering Lillard with Exum and O'Neal. Then he went away from it because they weren't scoring.
Yes Hayward is a good player and would help this team. Obviously there is some bad blood but Jazz are in need of a player exactly like Hayward to take the next step. A solid shooting wing who can create and play defense.
Truly apologize to any female poster or reader. I should have found a better way to address his attack. Maybe, he is insecure with his fandom. The thought of Quin making a mistake might drive him back to his days of Hayward heroism where one man was the only way forward the great white hope.Maybe skip the misogynist joke about menstruation next time.
He is fine he is not Mitchell. He would have hurt Mitchell's progress. The team is much better off with our new core. I do think that having Burks on the bench is a mistake. There are a ton of posters who don't agree, the media doesn't agree, and Quin doesn't agree. That doesn't mean I'm wrong. I was right about KOC and right about Hayward. I'll just continue to be right. We would never know how Burks would've fit because his in the only player in the doghouse.
There is definitely a difference in how the game is called in the P.O.s. Did anyone else catch the nuggets v wolves game last night? That was a throw back to the 90s! talk about rocky mountain wrestling!? Wow, that was a rough and tumble game, and the refs "let them play". It changes the entire game...pushing, grabbing, elbows flying, guys hitting the ground.
Wow, good point. If Snyder had just told them to be more physical we would have won. What a huge blunder on Snyder. Someone should really reach out to Snyder and pass this along. We need these coaching tips to reach Snyder before the playoffs!
I guess you didn't read everything, Ron. I said if they were as physical and you know they weren't, it would force the refs to start calling the fouls on both ends ... get it, now that you read it all? Think, man, think. It's not necessarily a coaching blunder, but a move that caught the Jazz off-guard. A good plan by the Blazer coach and it worked.
Yes, the Jazz didnt care about winning a meaningless game on the back end of a back to back to end the season. There is nothing more to read into this. They were tired and had nothing to play for.
Well, the Jazz certainly got out-punked. The Blazers were kicking their *** and Crowder was the only who tried to get back at them. Lillard slapped Ricky in the face, no call. McCollum punched or elbowed Donovan in the gut -- no call, though I only saw it on the replay and it was in the middle of paint, so probably hard to see, but it was there on the replay from that camera angle. We need to retaliate next time we play them and show them we aren't pussees like in the Hayward and AK days. We need some Mailman enforcement.
Who said they didn't care. They didn't step up to the physicality for whatever reason. Maybe home court didn't mean that much, considering there were playing OKC win or lose.
The coach said they had nothing to play for and it was very obvious that the players were not putting in a full effort.
But you don't back down when the opponent is overly aggressive.
