I hear people say that this is better than 8th-seed mediocrity. I cannot disagree more. This sucks. This is unwatchable basketball. I'm paying to watch this and it is unacceptable basketball.
Good. Then please leave. Hopefully you stop posting.
I love how folks like Jedi, who defended Big Al and Corbin (to the death) are now acting like this is what "we, the rebuilders" wanted.
Absolutely not.
We wanted to get the young guys playing experience. We wanted to get a new coach. We wanted to trade our vets for assets. The Jazz really screwed the pooch in the last few years. We were all yelling about not trading those vets for assets. Now, we have what Jedi and co wanted, a team that put its entire stock on vets and once they left... The cabinet is bare.
Had the Jazz done what most of us wanted LAST YEAR and traded at least some of our vets for assets, then this transition would have most likely been a lot smoother. Instead, the bottom has fallen out and we have only one way to go... UP.
But until then, this is going to be unwatchable, embarrassing, and just plain bad.
Had the Jazz fired Corbin, promoted Hornacek, and began the transition of rebuilding LAST YEAR as MOST of us wanted, this year wouldn't be happening. We probably wouldn't be playoff material still but at least we wouldn't be the worst team in the league.
