I'm officially coming out (I was wrong about Trey Lyles)

[Tony]

Congratulations on coming out. I know a few gay people. You seem like you'll fit right in with them.

Russell leaked a video of Nick Young admitting to cheating on his girlfriend that he had secretly taped.

There was a longer version where Russell told Young he was filming. So he just looks really stupid in the end, not like a snitch/snake. He also didn't leak it himeself; I think his phone got hacked because it leaked around the same time as his instagram was hacked by some weird music promoter thing.

And on topic, I was wrong about Lyles too. He was a guy I was excited about way before the draft and then cooled on as the draft got closer. I'll gladly eat my crow too.

We're 12th in the NBA in 3 point percentage at 35.5%. We're 17th in attempts per game.

The Warriors are first in both.

After last night, we're now 10th in the league in three point percentage at 35.8%. The Cavs are 9th at the same percentage, persuably, just hundredths of a percentage point higher. The Wiz and Clips are both at 36.0% and within striking distance.

Notable Jazz players' three-point percentages

Neto - 41.1%
Lyles - 39.2%
Ingles - 37.4%
Hood - 36.5%
Hayward - 35.8%

I said it yesterday in some thread. This is my biggest off-season wish. That Hayward and Hood shoot, shoot, shoot and improve their three-point % next season. If those guys, on the volume they shoot, can be above 39%, this team can do legit things. There's a reason the Dubs are on pace to be the best team ever. Great defense (which we have with the return of Exum) and perimeter shooting. Hayward and Hood have to improve in this regard.

Before Burks passed away he was at 39% this year.

Anyone else excited to see what a summer at p3 will do for lyles?

Watching him play defense I feel the main thing lacking is strength. Activity and effort is there.

There was a longer version where Russell told Young he was filming. So he just looks really stupid in the end, not like a snitch/snake. He also didn't leak it himeself; I think his phone got hacked because it leaked around the same time as his instagram was hacked by some weird music promoter thing.

I'm pretty sure most here have or need to eat crow.

RIP

I am completely dumbfounded he could miss the season. I pray every day he comes back.

I admit I hated the Lyles pick. I wanted Turner or Booker instead. When everyone went down with injuries on the Jazz and Lyles got some serious playing time, he slowly turned me into a believer.

If I could ask one favor of everyone on Jazzfanz...kindly refrain from using the Carlos Boozer comparisons please... hearing that name makes me cringe.

Perry Ellis is a lesser Carlos Boozer. They're like clones.

Not too worried about Hood. His form is so beautiful I have no doubt he'll be over 40%. Hayward is likely who he is. Exum is the real key. Need him to be in the high 30's.

I think if we could have Hood at 41%, Hayward at 39.5%, Lyles at 39%, and Exum at 37.5%, we'd be looking pretty good.

 

[Hotdog]

I've said it many times, but go see Lyles in person before you rip on him. He obviously knows what's going on. He'll figure it out on defense and be a great pick.

Next year I expect Gobert and Favs to stagger minutes at the 5, leaving plenty of minutes at the 4 for Trey.

Oooof

 

[Hotdog]

Have I said recently how smart I looked in this last draft? I even drafted him for Boston in the jazzfanz mock draft. Pretty sure PGAB was cheating off me. Thought it was great timing by I Abach I calling me out on my Lyles love at draft time. Right after he made that epic thread Lyles stepped up to a higher level of play. Pretty sure I'm this year's honz

Lololololol

You really think it's funny that people were excited about Lyles last year? And you think you're clever because you're giving up on a second year player who looked awesome when thrust into a big role last year but hasn't had any rhythm this year when put in a significantly limited role?

Yep, you're clever. Let's check back on this thread two or three years from now.

Yeah! Let's do it! It is clear that Lyles is a great player in the making and two or three years from now he'll be shooting something like 52 percent from the field and dominating the league.

I really don't know, but I don't think sophomore struggles are a reason to give up on a player who has previously shown potential. To act like a dick about it the way Computer is doing is just kind of ugly and dumb.

Ofc people are going to turn on Lyles, almost no one rode for him pre-draft. At the end of the day people want to look smart and be right. Computer probably still swears Anthony Bennett can be a good nba player.

Agreed. I never liked Lyles, but ripping on him right now is as stupid as the people ripping on Exum long before he's had a chance to develop as an NBA player. Seems like fans really expect these guys to come right out of the draft and start delivering. Sometimes they do, sometimes it takes many years before they start to shine. Be patient and quit hating so damn much.
