So did we learn anything from last years "Learning Year"?

So what did you guys expect?

I don't know. You've told us for several years that playing time is all that matters. Maybe you built this now disappointed monster Mr. tedbundy.

He shouldn't be disappointed. As it stands the jazz are in a playoff spot, have played more road games than anybody else, and went toe to toe with a couple of really good teams at their place.

Btw, maybe if corbin would have done a better job of developing guys, we would be even better

It seems to me that these last two games are exactly the type of game we were supposed to be learning from last year. If I have to hear Harpring or Boler say that this is a great learning experience for these young guys again I'm going to lose it. They have been young for years now. Yes I know we need a point guard, and Gobert was out, but we need to put teams away. We still haven't learned to close games.

One of the problems has been Quin's late game management. Who puts in a non-defensive lineup in the crunch and then wastes the last time out with 40 seconds left? If you're going to put a non-defensive lineup in then run and score. If you're going to call a time out regardless then put in a defensive lineup.

I'm scratching my head at his decision making. I thought about making a thread about this last night.
