Rambling endless non-sense from the biggest Clank the Clowner of all. On the unusual nights with the clown gets lucky and makes some shots, he's the greatest shooter of all time. Otherwise "one blocked shot "changed the momentum and essentially ended the game." If only you knew how ridiculous that is. No offense though Bonkers, you are a loyal supporter no matter what. Happy Thanksgiving.

It doesn't matter how well they shoot it matters there effieciency on the court. As long as helped the team how can you criticize him. You must not be a jazz fan if you don't like players that help them.

Clank the Clown was 0 for 4 from 3, and 2 for 7 over all with a grand total of 2 assists in 20 minutes. So according to Bonkers, Clank won the game for the jazz. Bonkers you crack me up. Endless non-sense.

Wow, this really is fun.
 
Wow @ rainhut .... wtf is your problem?

CJ's block last night was a spectacular defensive play. He is one of the most important players to the Jazz's success this year.

CJ dominates.

I think the issue with CJ will not be "fixed" simply by giving him more time. He has had time. How long does he need. He has played semi-solid minutes for over 2 seasons and for all the flashes of talent he shows, he still can't put it together. I think his problem is 2-fold. 1) He is just plain soft. He gets upset when he gets jeered a little, if his shot isn't falling, if he gets looked at the wrong way. The kid is just soft. He is too easily affected by the negative and let's it affect his play...and 2) He has no basketball IQ. For a long time I thought "at least he is pretty smart with the ball, at least he somewhat understands the game" and that kept me semi-ok with the CJ experiment, but now I see that is not the case. Sure he tried to do other things on the court when his shot wasn't falling, but so often what he does seems forced and out of context, on offense and defense at times. After this long in this system shouldn't he be teaching it to other players? Instead all too often he still looks like he is trying to figure out what we are doing. Some of it comes easier for him now, but if he is on a 10% per year learning curve he will never even be a regular role player let alone an all-star.

As was stated, there are few options. We let pieces go that were better options than CJ and like many I still do not know why. I guess Sloan and Deron see something I do not (and many others do not as well), and while I will defer to their professional opinion and hope they know what they are doing, I am concerned they are suffering from their own brand of homer-ism that will keep us from making moves to improve at that position.

My hope is they are putting something together for a nice mid-season trade to get us some help on the wing. Think Portland would trade Mathews for CJ straight up?

Clank the Clown can't shoot, but that doesn't matter, can't pass, but that doesn't matter, can't defend, but that doesn't matter. But endless non-sense like this continues. Very funny! This thread just keeps getting bigger because the clown is becoming famous for his antics.

Are you a broken record? Same post 90 times now.

Funny how people think shooting is all basketball is about.

No, the clown can't defend or pass either. Those three are kind of important, but clown supporters will find other things that are just non-sense. It's very funny. Can't shoot, pass, or defend, but wow, the clown helps the Jazz win! Remember this thread is about the CJ the clown experiment when you complain again that I'm talking about him.
 
CJ sucks again, rainhut rules again, yet another episode of As The Jazz World Turns. Of course, CJ shot bad again even if he actually played OK (not to be confused with good by any stretch.) But even after a good win, we should remember that CJ shot 1-7 and nearly cost us the game.
 
Indeed. CJ is streakier than...I don't have something witty, but you guys get the idea.
 
With Mom and Dad in town I wonder if he's pressing a little bit.

Harpring is right thought - when he starts inside and goes out he seems to have more success.
 
Clank the Clown was active tonight. 1 for 7, missed all 3s, 1 assist, and lead the team in turn overs in 20 minutes. Go Clank! Another 10 minutes of the Clown and the Jazz loose. But of course Bonkers and the other mindless defenders will say he was +7 or come up with some other useless statistic. I will admit that the clown made me laugh again, and that was fun. How can an NBA player be so devoid of basketball knowledge. Can't help wondering if Sloan knows how many people are laughing at the clown.

Well, I'm laughing. Love the name Clank the Clown. So appropriate. At first I was mad because we were so far behind and this clown just kept on shooting and missing. Then I read this. You guys are right. He is funny!
 
damn CJ, when he's hot he's hot, when he's cold he's cold. though the jazz are winning, you hope he doesn't cost us many games with his inconsistency.
