Is the punch line "Jabari Parker"?
If so, then it's a damn good joke. Lose to the 76ers to end their losing streak and the Jazz will start climbing in the "tank rank" again.
I agree that the lineup is a mess. My only hope is that DL keeps shedding overpriced veteran talent, hires a bad-*** coach to replace Corbin and turns the team over to the Core5 + two new draft picks + Gobert/Neto. Gotta lick up a top 3 pick this year and they're actually sitting in pretty good shape IMO.
The key to it all is a successful tank and a new coach.
But we are getting closer to a higher draft pick so we got that going for us which is nice.
What does it matter whether Burks starts or not? He got 34 mins. tonight; RJ played 18.
Perhaps DL envisions Burks as a 6th man. And I see nothing wrong with that. He can provide scoring punch as the starters come out and then finish the game, which is much more important than starting. IMO, Jazz need to bring in a starting SF for next season. I did think Marvin MIGHT be the answer as the starting PF, playing 20 mins with Kanter coming off the bench, but I'm no longer sold on that idea.
Because the Jazz tries to copy the Spurs and Thunder, not the Sixers or Minnesota.Theres no reason why the starting lineup shouldn't be
Favors
Kanter
Hayward
Burks
Burke
And they all should be playing 35+ minutes per game
If he does mind he's not showing itMaybe burks cares whether he starts or not
Yes, and throw the Clips in with the Spurs and OKC. Wouldn't mind the jazz signing a Good defensive vet, who knows his role like Carroll. But give Burks and Hayward most the minutes. Still pissed Corbin wouldn't play him down the stream last year, he's had a nice season this year.Because the Jazz tries to copy the Spurs and Thunder, not the Sixers or Minnesota.
Have faith Yell. The jazz are forging a future. To forge something you have to go thru the fire. This season is that fire. Next year Jefferson, Lucas and Biedrins (at least) will be gone. Burke, Burks, Hayward, Kanter, Favors and Gobert will be better. Neto should come over and the Jazz will land a very good pick and another late 1st round pick in a loaded draft. Plus I fully expect a while new coaching staff next year. Not to mention some financial room going into free agency.
If we are this same team next year then I'll join you in bein pissed. But for now stay the course my fellow Jazz fan.

Thats good of alec to not show it.
Earlier this year i heard on the radio that his agent had said publicly that alec wanted to start.
Maybe that has changed
If you watch his mannerisms on the court there's no way he's disgruntled.
