It may be a Kanter situation. I have no idea what he was doing on defense last night. He was forcing Blake into the shot blocker but wasn't close to him at all. It was Steve Blake, just stay in front of him... we don't have to double or trap him or whatever the hell he was doing.

It's fine if he gets beat or buried a bit on screens as long as he does his best to recover. He was half-assing it, forcing the bigs to help for too long. Absolutely no sense of urgency. Very Kanteresque.

Someone who doesn't run swing-swing-swing-pnrnpnrnpnrnp college offense?

"Hey guys, let's run this intricate, 7 second wasting v cut into pnr into dho just to get into horns, then **** that right back into pnrnpnrnpnr and hope that corner guy can stay open for longer than the 2 seconds it takes for the ball handler to throw a dangerous looping pass from one sideline to the other".

Viny, get back to me when you understand any of what I just wrote.



QS's system is nothing but hope that 3 point shooters will not be defended in the 3 steps it takes for slacking defenders to get back on long passes. It's utter ****e.

What's there to understand? Our offensive efficiency trajectory from the Corbin years to now is a positive one. We were near last in 13-14 and moved up quite considerable in 14-15. I can only hope this year we get even better. What I saw last night was a lot of open looks being missed. Looks/ shots that need to be converted.

On a night OKC,Minnesota,and Portland scored 112 pts and Denver scored 105 pts .The Jazz score 87 points against a average Detroit team.
Gobert,Favors,Hayward and Burks all got 1 assist a piece AND the Jazz got out rebounded !The PG play put up 8 pts and 4 assists while giving up to the opposing PG's 21 pts/11 assists.What did *the trade* produce,a DNP.I see it payed off nicely for the other team.

It's not the Jazz's fault that Kanter is a bitch who was doing jack and **** here, and then whined for a trade because he's a massive bitch, thus lowering his trade value.

So he's doing well somewhere else. Good for him I guess. But being a bitch is a pretty learned skill that will most likely manifest itself throughout the season, though having a team with 2 MVP caliber players (he's not of one them) does help lessen that, as winning is a cure all for most things.

That's a good joke even without any context.

Context:
We were near last in a year built for failure, and then got even worse in a year built not for failure and with internal improvement. Sorry for stepping on your boy's toes, he sucks *** on the offensive end.
 
The Pacers and the Grizzlies weren't winning programs when they had this much youth, and they're pretty much the only teams to look to as models. And, they aren't models who have lifted the trophy. This is all to say that it's hard to build a winner (on the offensive side) when you've got our kind of pieces. Need a couple of gravity guys.

Dennis Lindsay isn't big on making moves outside of draft day unless his hand is forced.

remember when people were talking about the "Core 4"?

Looks like 2 of those are going to go down as total busts (as far as we're concerned). Not a good average.

Trey was never part of the core 4
Kanter, alec, hayward, favors
 
NAOS said:
^that's right. My bad.

But Burke was enthusiastically regarded as a core piece right from the start. There were even people saying that "we finally have our alpha".

Disregard my previous post
