Why is Quin not feeding Favors and Kanter ??? Lol, I hate this style of offense without using the low post.
 
Here's my feeling---

1. Burke isn't very good. He can't create on his own and he can't defend at an NBA level.

2. This motion stuff on the perimeter is not getting our bigs open looks in the paint where we have so much more offensive potential inside than the Thunder, it's not funny.

3. We don't have enough shooting to space the floor.
 
It´s not the starting unit, it´s about the bench. Or bench is not producing offensively. Defensively they suck either...What´s the reason with hustle bear Booker and Octopus Rudy ? Ok I can understand that they are struggling with scoring the ball, but this lineup is also bad at playing defense.
 
I feel like Kanter and Favors can draw a double-team inside any time they want. Now maybe these guys can't handle a double-team, can't make a pass, or whatever. But why don't we clear out to have Hayward feed the post and re-feed the post?

The Jazz used to do this all the time.
 
I think you guys forget how young or players are with a new coach, a new system, and not that great of bench. They are going to have TOs, they are going to be inconsistent, and they are going to flash potential. I do worry about defense, but I don't think Corbin helped out on that end at all. We have to be patient, which fans are never.
 
Also, it's obvious that the Jazz aren't serious about winning this year. The bench is as gutted this year as it was last year. Maybe worse.

We're driving the same tank strategy as last year. The only difference is that our guys are healthy and Snyder is a better coach than Corbin. But the idea that our starters can build a lead and then our bench can give it all up smacks of last season.

Last year, we had Kanter and Burks coming in off the bench. This year? Ingles and Booker.

Offense really isn't the problem with the starters. They've played SIGNIFICANTLY better on that end compared to last year. In this game alone they're shooting 59% from the field.
 
If Utah Jazz can trade Burke for a shooting guard who can shoot and play good defense, this team would be special. Start Exum for some defense and bring Burks as the 6th Man for some offense of the bench, where he can play 28-30 minutes with high intensity. Maybe it´s a bit ugly to hear, but this team needs veteran leadership. But veterans who are producing on the court.
