Also the Jazz have lost every game that Thurl Bailey has been the color guy. #bringbackfrysaucemattwhousetoplayfootball

They're playing a different style, the run and gun style, this year. A team with Rudy anchoring can't play that way. That's the difference this year. We just don't have the shooters at the right positions, that is at PG, to do that. None of our PGs are good shooters, even Donovan is only so-so, as he gets his points mainly on drives to the hoop. He's really only an average 3-pt shooter, being kind of streaky to balance out his bad nights. When Ricky has nights like tonight, it's impossible to beat a good team.
 
I went to check the box score on espn...the top NBA story was about the top 60 draft projects.

Its actually easy to guard us. Just put a guy right on Ingles. Put a guy right on Mitchell. Dont let us throw oops to Gobert.

Favors and Rubio have almost zero offensive game. Gobert can't do anything but shoot within 5 feet. Actually easy to guard.

When you can play off others it is. But who knew spacing could matter?
 
Seems to me we have seen a lot more run and gun this season so far. It ain’t working. Why the change?

Running it back in this constantly evolving league may have been unwise.

Maybe, but what was the alternative in free agency?

I think the Jazz largely did it to just maintain cap-space for 2019. If they strike out there, then I will understand the criticism for this past year's decisions.

Bjelica. Bjelica. Bjelica. Bjelica. Bjelica. Bjelica. Bjelica. Bjelica.

The guy was initially signed for peanuts and is still on a cheap deal. We also didn't need to retain Exum for a multi-year deal (if cap is the concern, which it is for me).

Speaking of sunk costs; We keep pretending like keeping Bradley is anything but an exercise in the sunk cost fallacy while productive centers went off the market for nothing.

Those are a few ideas. But how about just, I don't know, ****ing ANYTHING?

If they suck this year, they will 100% strike out in the offseason.
 
Conserve cap space in 2019?

I dont buy it. Two years is too long to plan in this league and has been for 25 years.

Lindsey has made some crappy moves, and got bailed out by a couple of later picks who play above their draft position.

Jazz suffer from lack of talent....their starting line up consists of just two lottery picks and Im not sure either of them start for 25 other teams in this league.

Im typing angry. So this is probably not rationale. I will just delete it in the morning.
