i have warmed up to the idea of Foye taking Burks minutes. at this point he is just better. but i have no idea why he gets more minutes than Hayward. that should never happen in any game, in any city. yet it happens every single night. Hayward can be inconsistent, sure (to say nothing of Foye's inconsistency) but at this point he should get 35 mins a game as he is our best wing.

Foye just needs to be taking all of Watson's minutes. He made at least 5 nice passes tonight that lead to good scoring opportunities. Let Foye take all of Watson's minutes, that in turn frees up more time for Burks/Carroll. We can all agree any combination of Foye/Burks/Carroll taking everyone one of Earl's minutes is a good thing.
 
God I'd be happy if we could just kill Stern. Trade Al, Millsap, Mo, Tinsley and Watson for anything worth a damn and move on with this ****ing youth movement already. I'm so sick of watching these veterans suck game after game.

On a positive note, Favors had a solid game. He should have defensive rebounded better, but overall he played superb. He locked Howard down, playing some of the best P&R defense that I have seen in quite some time.

Favors 14 pts on 5 shots is off the charts.

I know Earl is pretty damn terrible, but don't get carried away. Jason Hart is the worst player to ever don a Jazz jersey and have a meaningful role.

At this point I'm not sure that Earl is not the worst player to dress for the Jazz ever. Amechi maybe, Hart Maybe, But Earl is definitely in the conversation.

i would actually hold onto Tinsley. His old man street ball moves make me smile all game. you can't put a price on that.
 
I honestly don't think I've ever been more pissed off at Jefferson, which is saying something. The dude makes Gasol look like a ****ing superstar again, gets obliterated on the boards, and tops all that off by shooting 35%.

If offense is the only reason Jefferson plays most of the game and Kanter can't get any burn, I wonder if somebody should point out to our dumbass head coach that Kanter has a MUCH higher FG% on the season.

Earl is bad, but at least he isn't taking a bunch of shots he can't make! Hart averaged 3 shot attempts per game in 10 minutes of average play time. Earl can't possibly be shooting that much.
 
Watson is the worst player on the team.

About 5 games ago or so, we saw the backcourt tandem of foye, burks, and hayward looking sweet as hell, and now its been quite awhile since we have seen that lineup together..... i want to see it again soon, but corbins love for vets forces him to play the amazingly old watson

Probably not. But he is now terrible defensively and throws the ball to the wrong team, Can't shoot (at least he realizes this) and can't run the offense. Oh and right now he is getting more than 10 MPG. :(

He played more or less under control on the offensive end, and I think this is critical for him. He showed good range tonight as well. One of the best games I've seen him play.

Ya, I wonder what the hell Corbin is thinking. It was working nicely and Burks +/- was sky high.

He would start and play 33+ min/game for 29 teams in this league.
 
Our offense is pathetic. I get the usual Al was terrible posts, or this other guy was terrible posts, but one thing has been very clear all season long: we get no easy shots out of the half court. Tonight, we did well on the break or capitalizing on turnovers. But possession by possession, we scored 80% of the time on individual efforts. Indy is going to be a disaster.
 
As long as Al/Millsap are in Utah, they will be mediocre team. So its either stick with Al and be mediocre, or play our 3rd round picks and start building a fresh team.
