I am sure Hayward's inconsistency drives the front office insane. It makes it very hard to build the team. Do they need to try to add to the team a good 3-point shooter as a starter at 1 or 3, or, assuming the Jazz already have a 3-pont threat in Hayward, they can look at adding a PG like Rondo...

..puzzles me. He shot 45% on 3-pointers in his freshman year, then nosedived to 29% in his sophomore season. In the NBA Gordon had a record-setting rookie season at 47%, then 20% in December-January, and 43% last month. The same with his free throws: he was at 82-83% in college, dropped...

Corbin was absolutely right. Kanter stunk in his first games, but Corbin kept giving him minutes (15MPG in the first 5 games). Favours was not that great and played behind two borderline All-Stars and still got 24 MPG in the first 5 games. Evans got 3 MPG as well. Together, they played 43 MPG...

Boozer was replaced by Millsap. Lets see: Boozer - 27 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal, 5 TO. Millsap - 26 points, 7 rebounds, 1 assist, 4 steals, 1 TO. I would call it a wash....wait, Millsap - 8 million, Boozer -13.5 million?! Bye-bye, Boozer! By the way, Big Al replaced Memo in the...

Well, you decide: NBA Player Scoring Statistics - 2011-12, total points ... 18. Dwyane Wade, SG - 624.

That is what a lot of posters here seem to believe. But will they ever be able to play together as starters? They seem to be awfully similar: the same height, good defenders, good rebounders, bad passers and no offense outside of broken plays and putbacks. The problem is that I do not see...

A big win today. Memphis is the team we are very likely to finish neck-to-neck with, it would be great to have a tiebreaker with them. It is amazing to see how much better Howard, Burks, Favors and Kanter looked today compared to the start of the season. Our team is going to get better with...

... as a 7th or 8th seed (barring major injuries). Yes, they will be destroyed by many good teams in the coming days and still make it. There is too much going for them. - The Jazz showed that despite all of their problems they still can win at home. They will also win games on the road against...

Josh McRoberts is your typical average PF in the NBA. If a 19-year-old rookie steps on the court in his first game and is ready to defend an average player at his position he is a pretty solid defender. And if Pau Gasol could be even moderately slowed down by rookies playing their first games...

If a rookie big in his first game plays a good defense on the likes of Josh McRoberts he deserves to be praised.

So, you expected a 19-year-old rookie playing in his first game to stop one of the most skilled and experienced PFs in the NBA?

Our bigs and Deron has been more or less reliable and productive so far. Our wings (AK, Bell, Hayward) - atrocious. Because of that the role of CJ became the most important on the team. In short: if he struggles the Jazz are getting swept off the court, if he is so-so, they are competitive, and...

The more pertinent question to ask is who will be considered the best PG in the NBA by the end of this season? I, for all my love for DWill,do not like his chances. My major concern is that I do not see him working to improve his game. He is basically the same player he was 2 years ago. He...

This is the Paul Millsap appreciation thread. Through the first 3 games his stats are 21-12-3. He never whines, never brags, never dresses downs rookies on the court. What he does is that he always comes to play and gives 100% on the court, even when no one else does. I am so glad...
