Which player, choosing one, do you want to see get more floor time?

I have to vote for Burks. He has shown that he can play on the offensive end while not being a slouch on defense. He makes some mistakes ie.. turnovers, bad shots. But I have very impressed with him so far.

Corbin, make it happen!
 
So Jefferson and Millsap should get less minutes? I think they're spread out about right.

Jefferson 33 mpg
Millsap 31 mpg
Favors 21 mpg
Kanter 14 mpg
Burks 12 mpg

Devin Harris actually. I think he should be around 30 mpg with Watson at 18.

You would'nt have said that 10 days ago. Watson was looking really strong. Though I agree with you now, I believe Corbin needs to play the better producer each night whoever that may be.
 
Kanter and Burks.

Kanter up to 20 from Jefferson(-3) and Favors(-3)
Burks up to 20 from Bell(-6) and Miles(-2)
 
I don't think Favors or Kanter have the conditioning to get more minutes this season.
Burks should get more, but Raja's playing well. With Raja out, Burks will get minutes.

I love J. Evans but he gets BURRIED on picks. He can't set them or run through. The Jazz offense is huge on screens....so that's why he won't get minutes.

So my answer is Burks
 
I want Favors and Kanter to show they deserve more minutes. I'm looking for some kind of breakthrough with Favors, and some consistancy from Kanter.

I want the Jazz to start blowing out some opponents so that I can see Jeremy Evans for 3-4 minutes at the end of the game.

PS--Harris is fools gold, I want to see Tinsley.
 
burks needs to get at least 15-20 minutes per game. kanter should get like 18 minutes and favors 23 minutes per game.


we have great players at the power forward and center positions, but we literally suck on every other position. we have to improve via trade, especially a pass first point guard that can shoot the ball with consistency would be a dream come true. we can offer harris, miles and even the gs pick to get that solid missing piece.

Jefferson definately shouldn't be playing that much on a gimpy ankle. And yes, with the schedule being what it is, I'd like to see Favors and Kanter get more minutes when they're playing well. Right now, it seems like Ty is giving them only a certain amount of playing time, regardless of how they might be affecting the game.

so true. even if they play well and sort of dominate the game, ty seems to be trying to do everything to avoid them getting more playing time. seems like it doesn't matter if jefferson is not back on his level or millsap being exhausted. same with burks. kid can play as well as he wants, seems like it doesn't matter at all and that really makes me sick. he can outplay bell or hayward or whoever on this team, seems like ty doesn't care.

Nope, I would have. I have solidly stood by Harris > Watson. Harris is a career starter, Watson a career backup. I would like to see Harris get more minutes to try and develop better chemistry with the team, and better flow to his game.
 
Burks for sure. Kanter's minutes are sometimes low and shouldn't be.
Would like to see Tinsley in for Harris for a few minutes a game.

No doubt, I'm impressed by his motor. But this is a compact 66 game schedule, he's a rookie, and he's a huge huge body.
I'm just saying that if you give him more minutes, towards the end of the season, he might bog down.

He's averaging 14 minutes a game. Wearing him out isn't going to be an issue. Sap and AJ getting worn out will be.

There have been several games where Harris was the worst player on the floor. Based on what I saw, his sucking was primarily about him being a ****ing wuss. That may have caused some "chemistry" issues... but those were secondary.

You just love being the contrarian.

Harris has sucked. period.
