Game #8: Jazz at Warriors, Saturday 01/07/2012 8:30 MST

Violet Palmer is the worse ref in the league. Every game she is in ends up being a whistle fest.

Bill Simmons has said many times that Palmer is not only terrible, but players all know she is terrible and they just give up when she refs

I'm so sick of these refs. I just want to grab one of those refs and make him eat his whistle!

 

[sepanol]

Fair enough... I thought you were on the "bench Al for the young guys" wagon... I didn't realize you were saying that we needed to utilize our depth to give our veterans a rest..

My bad...

I dont like Big Al and want him traded, but it is not realistic to say completely bench him for young guys at this point, just he should concess the playing time little bit more

 

[IBProfane]

Enes is a monster, and his basketball IQ is off the charts. I can't wait until he develops and offensive game, he's going to be a multiple time all-star.

ellis with 13fts :|

Harpring is insane. "the Kanter Bull", "Kanter in a Kanter shop"???

I liked him at first as an anouncer but lately it's like he is trying to hard

I like him but even I was like "wtf!"

 

[sepanol]

it was such an unnecessary foul by howard

 

[craig2112]

seems like the refs are letting the warriors get away with a lot, but calling the jazz for everything they can.

 

[BYE]

It seems like Howard's age is affecting him a bit.

Kanter is strong like bull, but he will never make an all-star team because you need to average at least in double figures in points.

 

[Stoked]

So you are saying Kanter will never average at least 10 ppg? That is a very bold statement and I think you are wrong.

 

[craig2112]

Too many droughts. The jazz can't seem to do anything against the zone. Gotta adjust and we need people to score.

Kinda hard to get 10+ points playing 9 minutes a game.

Well what else can you say?? Yes it's early, but the kid appears to have a hell of a nice touch at the free throw line yet takes no 20 ft jumpers??

Why??

Is Corbin pulling the reigns back on him??

Actually yes. Corbin has said that he wants Kanter playing inside, not shooting j's from 20
I agree with him

 

[craig2112]

This is a winnable game. GS isn't playing that well.

From articles in the Salt Lake Tribune and Deseret News that is what is happening. Wants Kanter to focus on rebounding, defense and paint scoring. Also he is a rookie. He will improve and get more time and get more points.

He doesnt have the initiative yet since he is a rookie, but i assure you his mid range is much better than Big Al
