I would've repped this but, you left out pictures of RJ and Marv. I think it's stupid that fans here hate them just because they start and are vets. Don't hate them, hate the coach. Don't understand the hate. Let's atleast show some total team pride. You guys act as if they are doing something sinister to the young guys.

Go Jazz!!!!

 

[Doublea]

Marvin is probably going to be out.

Well they do blame the youth every time we lose. That kind of seems disingenuous of them after I watch both of them being eaten alive as they try to defend their position. Furthermore, they are inferior players on expiring contracts who are glad to be starting, not for the good of our team and city, but so they can chase another contract. They are puppets of Corbin who spew the same propaganda that has delayed the development of our young players because people/media/FO/Millers use to buy that crap. Our teams best players per PER are the core 4 + Evans, yet only Hayward is averaging 36 mins a game. Their selfishness is criminal.

Admittedly, my vitriol is mostly aimed at Corbin, and then RJ. I actually like Marvin off the bench and at the right price.

So let's say your Ty Corbin. Your goal is to win as many games as possible for your next job interview. What would get you a win, starting old Richard Jefferson, or starting a pumped up Alec Burks. Alec would be pumped to start and try like a crazy to show you that you were wrong all year not starting him. Besides, no team in the league would start Richard Jefferson so he would get valuable experience coming off the bench for his next team.

 

[DutchJazzer]

wtf seasons til not over.


NEED MOAR RJ.

screw alec he is no vet

I don't think his actions demonstrate that his goal was to win as many as possible. But maybe he is just a worse coach than I thought.

 

[//r00t 4 Jazz]

Let me start by saying yes I would like Burks and Kanter to have averaged more minutes however I'm not sure when the decision was made that the only way a player will develop or improve is ONLY by starting and ONLY playing 36-38+ minutes.

Burks is 4th in minutes at 27.7min per game (Hayward 1st 36.2min, Burke 2nd 31.8min, Favors 3rd 30.0min) and Kanter is 6th 26.4min with the aforementioned players a head of him and RJ at 27.2min and RJ doesn't play the same position as Kanter so he's taking Hayward's and Burks's minutes but again both of those players are still getting more minutes then RJ.

So Favors is the only player "taking" minutes from Kanter that gets more minutes then him, Williams, Evans, Gobert all take minutes from him but play less minutes then him.

So while I understand some of the frustration as I yell at my TV every single night, the hate is ridiculous and leads to some pretty outlandish thoughts/opinions that get repeated and then seem to become fact.



Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering

Sorry green you'll get no sympathy from me. I've only sat lower bowl twice and would be thrilled to take my kids there.

This is the most rediculus post I've ever heard, it screams hater to me. I almost put you on my ignore and idiot lists. This is beyond stupid, and one of the biggest douchebag comments I've ever heard, and very childish like answer.

maybe its also PLAYING together.

how many minutes have
core 5+ evans and gobert played together.
for this season. how many

note a season has 3936minutes.
if any combination of those 5 played more then 1000 minutes together i will cut off my DONG.

those 7 and maybe diante garrret should have played half the season together . aka any combination of those 5 should have gotten at least 2000 minutes.


so **** corbin.

and shove your individual minutes down your ***. its also about collective minutes

[yamers]

just noticed burke instead of shooting the 3 two times in a row he went in and dished it.

I like !

 

[CAKAR]

Is Corbin really thinking that Marvin could guard Dirk ?

Dirk-Dalembert combined for 14 points 7/7 shooting.

#WhereIStheD?

 

[Doublea]

Dirk is like a magician! I can't wait for our Erik Murphy vs Dirk rivalry to start!

 

[CAKAR]

Dalembert is some huge guy.

 

[Sexual Favors]

Evans first big off bench for Marvin? Kanter must be in the dog house again.
