From the top down of this franchise, it’s not about a different approach. It’s about continuing to do the exact same thing and hope for a different side of the dice to surface. Quin believes it’s like a game of heads or tails and there’s no reason for his players to think otherwise. No worries, just keep getting those same looks. Eventually the law of averages catches up. It’s just all chance and keep playing your same numbers.
 
Father blows through retirement and savings with poor investment after poor investment that promise getting rich quick. His family is nearly destitute. “I’m sorry, guys. This is my fault. I take full responsibility. The next investment is really going to make us rich. Promise. I’ll do better.”

We’re really this ****ing dense and it’s amazing that nobody in the franchise can slap some sense into this reasoning.
 
The Jazz still need one more guy in the closing lineup who can create his own shot and make it. Mike Conley isn't that guy anymore. Rudy Gay didn't even play tonight. So who is it going to be?

Sad thing is the season is over and now they can't figure it out. Snyder and or Mitch will likely be gone next year from this mess.

I find both guys to be dicks, but in this instance, I'm on Dowsett's side.
Dan C. does this really annoying thing where he acts like he's the smartest person in the room by not reacting to what's right in front of him.

If the Jazz collapsing in 4th quarters was an anomaly, he'd actually be right. But it happens all the time, and so it makes him just come off as obtuse.
 
He has benefited big time from being Donovan's best friend.

When Donovan is getting trapped or doubled, he needs to be able to rotate the ball to someone who can put the ball down and score in the paint. Royce isn't that guy. Royce isn't close to being that guy.

I think Rudy Gay was supposed to be that guy, but he's aging out of the league.
 
There was a Chicago Bulls team with Derrick Rose, Joaquim Noah and Luol Deng. That team won 60 games during the regular season, and young Derrick Rose won MVP. But that team got taken out in the 2nd round by the Heat because the Heat had size and length on defense, and Rose wasn't big enough to overcome double-teams from long wings on his own.

That's where the Jazz are at right now, imo.
 
It's astonishing how big a group of chokers these guys are. I've never seen anything quite like it in my life.
