Jazz v. Warriors THE DECENT

[NUMBERICA]

The Jazz are getting Harris' and Jefferson's trade value up, although I think the Jazz might keep Jefferson through his contract.

THAT is what I am scared of. More important than a late lottery pick, I am ready for the Al Jefferson era to end.

Also, it would be great for the rookies to get some playoff experience.

You mean the one second year player that will actually get significant minutes in the playoffs, Hayward. Neither of the rookies would get any real time in the playoffs, 10-15 for Burks and 5-7 maybe for Kanter.

 

[Brown Notes]

Kanter got FOUR minutes. He's getting dogged, no two ways about it.

Burks scored 6 points in 9 minutes (with two rebounds). Burks was the 2nd best wing player, but CJ Miles played twice as many minutes... sick... and went 1-5? Burks played 9 minutes so Miles could get his 17? So we could play PGs as SGs? Maybe Ty was trying to tank this game, because the Jazz played terrible basketball for 45 minutes. Atrocious.

That's how bad the Warriors are. And conversely, that's how bad they need to win every game they can.

Yea, I thought Burks wasn't doing very well watching the game. He looked lost defensively and didn't hit the foul line like he usually does. I guess you're right though, Corbs should have used him more. I doubt we see much more of the 2 PG lineup. Watson off the ball was not pretty. Corbs has got to do something or Hayward is going to die of exhaustion out there. Burks is the most obvious answer.

I'm not worried so much about Kanter. He's not going to show who he really is until somewhere close to this time next year if not later IMO.

Is there any update on Al's injury? All you guys might have your wishes granted with that pull. I thought he was done for the season from the look on his face before he came back in.

It gets frustrating watching Ty play CJ and not Kanter, especially vs GS. Play Kanter or trade him- I want to see him play.

It would also be great for the team to get some multiple-lottery-picks-in-a-strong-draft experience.

This.

Serious question.... Does anyone here think that Hayward and Burks would have received/would be receiving even the amount of PT they are getting now if Howard and Bell hadn't suffered season ending injuries?

Just imagine how TRULY lost this season would have been had those two managed to stay healthy.

Today, we might be fighting for the exact same playoff spot and Hayward could be rotting on the bench with Favors and Kanter and Burks could continue to pile up DNPs watching Bell brick and harris play the 2!
