Game Thread: Suns @ Jazz 7PM MT Friday

[Diamond77]

Remember when Kanter was a rebounding beast? Remember when Favors played amazing defense? Why are they un-learning their strengths?

They want to turn Kanter into a defensive player and Favors into a offensive player

 

[Sneakers]

Ehh not sold on Dallas or Denver, but this is awesome so far.

Lol, at the end of this year you could have 5!! Western Conference teams missing the playoffs who would have made it in the East. Man, that's bad.

 

[UGLI baby]

Burke just clanked a fastbreak 3 (wtf) then redeemed himself with a good drive for a layup.

Jazz gonna regroup and come oit strong in the 2nd half.

Ty gonna have these boys scratchin and clawin!

So did the rest of the youth up until the start of this season. Give it time.

Sure. But all we have is ATM.

 

[franklin]

Nobody is blaming Burks for the loss, and I'm glad he was aggressive all game.

Really? Kid was garbage tonight.

 

[Siro]

Really? Kid was garbage tonight.

Okay, but he was trying and the loss wasn't his fault. He's just not a good player.

 

[DutchJazzer]

Jeremy Evans is the only player that is showing improvements.

thats because he spent the leaast amount on the floor in corbins. nofensiveive system

Got home to discover that the DVR failed to record the game, effectively saving me from myself. It's an early Christmas miracle.

First game in person this year. My impressions were, shockingly, not very good. This team looked very disinterested for the most part. Marvin Williams was a bright spot, Evans, too. But defensively especially this team is a colossal wreck. No one seems to know what they're doing out there. A lot of standing around, a lot of general lackadaisical-ness. This is a tram without confidence and without direction.

On the positive side, my baby and I got on the jumbotron.

 

[LifeOnaPlate]

What I'm saying is, I'm fine with getting a higher draft pick. I'm fine with a lot of losses. But not like this, where people just don't look like they have any confidence or like they're putting in much of an effort.

 

[aussietinask]

The defense was so bad. One play at I think 99-87 sums up what I think. Our guard and Kanter both chase after the PHX guard as he drives after a high PnR. The PHX big pops (one of their stretch 4s I think) to the top of the key, and gets the kickout. Kanter keeps running beyond our baseline. KANTER!!! THERE IS NO ONE TO GUARD BEYOND THE BASELINE!!! WHY THE HELL ARE YOU RUNNING THERE. We were supposed to be better guarding the PnR without Al Jeff right?

The defensive rotations were SO BAD. One guy rotates, and I don't think there was a single rotation after that to cover the guy they left open. Of course theres gonna be open 3pt shooters all day. The only reason we ever got within 15 was because Marcus Morris decided that jab stepping 3 times then pulling up from 18 feet was going to be a good play multiple times.

That's the play I was talking about.

Watching the replay right now. Harpring ripping the defense that is being played as Jefferson throws the ball out of bounds and Hayward runs with his head down. This team has no idea what it is doing.

lol.

Hayward looked defeated all night. Smacking his hands together, cursing, hanging his head, just looking like he didn't know what the heck was going on all night out there. It was hard to watch him.
