this team might just suck.

[LoPo]

My main takeaway summarized: I'm more encouraged by the defense showing that it can be elite than I am discouraged about an outlier poor shooting performance

You sound like an excuse making coach. If you were Nick Saban, you would say - "we did some things right but those things didn't win us the game. There were too many mistakes and people didn't do their job."

No excuses. We played like garbage.

If our bench is so bad why not try Naz, Bradley and Cavanaugh?

Why not keep Rose and Jerebko?

 

[jom2003]

I do agree the fact that DL has to look at G leaguers at this point. Thabo, Dante and Neto are simply not deserving the minutes given to them. We need players, actual playable NBA players.

But I doubt we could find any other GMs in this league who operate like the great Dennis Lindsey, simply giving away decent players to other teams for free

Does Dante even get a chance to show anything?

You're calling for Ingles to come off the bench but you accuse me of "going against the tide"?

Go **** yourself

I liked your post here because it felt appropriate but brotha, that’s your thing. You go against the tide.

His Ichabod Crane-like neck, Adam’s apple and all, jutting out like Mandingo’s junk in the midst of a shoot.

Have you ever seen Rubio not be a ball dominant PG? That would strip his identity and render him even more useless than he has been.

I mean I get it, but it still seems a bit weird to me that Rubio is getting to touch and handle the ball more than Mitchell in the front court when Mitchell is quite clearly the superior talent. Just a poor fit in general I guess.

Arguing we should have kept Rose is an extreme case of hindsight.

It doesn't take hindsight to pick Rose over Neto on any given night.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

It doesn't take hindsight to pick Rose over Neto on any given night.

Rose looked like he had been done for the last two years, had health concerns, had mental concerns, and had an ugly legal case. You're a dumbass if you think that.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

And Rose is having an extreme outlier season. He's is a career sub-30% shooter from 3 and now he's at 48%.

@Saint Cy of JFC Your argument in this thread is borderline retarded. Let me quote one of the most simple minds involved with the Jazz organization,

"The team that scores the most points tonight is going to win"

Even Booner gets it. Why you don't is unfathomable.

 

[jom2003]

Rose looked like he had been done for the last two years, had health concerns, had mental concerns, and had an ugly legal case. You're a dumbass if you think that.

Wanna talk about health concerns? Neto missed 83 games combined over the course of last two seasons. Yet DL decided to sign him back for two more.

And if averaging 18pts in 30min and 10pts in 20min is looking like "he had been done", what does that make our bench players look like this season? Exactly

 

[Scat]

Mitchell has turned into a chucker. I used to wonder what people saw in players like Josh Smith. Took a ton of shots, scored 20+ points a game yet the Hawks still sucked. Unless Mitchell realizes he's not that good the Jazz are destined for a familiar destiny.

Did I say we won the game?

 

[jom2003]

Again, stop blaming on the starters. Mitchell will easily average 25+5ast has he had the Kings supporting cast. Consistent spacing + secondary ball handlers/scorers who can share the load.

Any allstar level player will have efficiency problem has he had to constantly handle the ball in late clock situations trying to dig something out of nothing. Unless you are talking about Bron, Giannis or KD level players/scorers, which DM clearly isn't near that caliber yet.

Good lord you're a clown

 

[Tragic66]

No, it shows that it's just one game and they had an outlier shooting performance.

Sometimes teams lose games. It happens. Earlier in the year the Jazz were getting blown out in losses because they completely let go and didnt stay focused on defense. This game they play **** on offense but kept to their strength on defense.

That's encouraging.

14-16 is not one game.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

14-16 is not one game.

This same game has happened 30 times?

Our bench are hot garbage. There is no point of denying it. And DL needs to realize his mistakes.
