WASTED YEAR
 
It's a wasted year because Enes isn't getting a ton of minutes? Yeah, that's rational.

You are right
As long as jeffy and marv are playin lots, its not a wasted season

The core are getting plenty of minutes and quickly developing into a very solid team. Just because you subjectively dislike some aspects of the coaching doesn't make it a wasted season. This isn't a Disney cartoon where everything is either black or white.

So you seem to be seeing everything as white (good)
Hit me up with some of the things you see as black (bad)

Yeah, their are playing good as a team, despite of beeing that inexperienced. But you also have to admit, that the most of special talent on this team lies at the Favors-Kanter double team. So they have to learn about playing with each other, the last 2 years they always played great together. So I do not think, that they can not work with each other in the game.
The Problem is that Corbin is totally refusing, to play them at the same time.
 
Don't think the Jazz will win half their remaining games. They will be .500 for Jan/Feb, but March and April will be brutal for them.

Agree with this. The stretch run could be tough for Golden State as well. They've been playing their starters a LOT of minutes. An injury to Curry and their season is flushed.

As the main options against bench players. Both will have to live with the reality that this is Burke's team now. Favors seems to be adjusting to his role within the offense well. Kanter hit the wall 1 month into the season (not in game shape yet) and still seems kind of lost with his positioning when playing with a real point guard (Which I don't think he has ever done). In order to get big minutes he will have to 1. Work his way back into shape 2. Work that pick and pop, especially as Favors will be the one crashing the basket, and 3: find his defensive niche when playing alongside Favors. I think he can do this, so I am not extremely worried yet. I suspect that much of it rests on his conditioning, which is a bear to work yourself into once the season starts. I would suspect that some of the things I looked at previously as lingering injuries were probably tiredness and soreness from hefty workouts on top of playing a heavy schedule of games.
 
If only bench minutes, team makeup, & closing out games did not matter....

This season those things don't really matter..... in those being bad in those areas might be the best thing that could happen to this team
