I would love if Fes replaced Matt Harpring on the broadcast team. Ratings would go through the roof!!!
 
I don't get all this Fesenko hate on this board. He earns very minimum, don't screw things up when he is out there. Even it's opposite - he is a contributor more often than not.

Wow!!!!! Get your head out of the clouds! Where have you been? The only reason he makes so little is he is one of the laziest most undedicated players in the league. Fes hasn't improved anything in his game since he got hear.

He came to Utah with so much talent and potential. He's where he is because he doesn't have any work ethic.

Does that explain why we hate him.

2008-2009: 13.0 PER
2009-2010: 9.7 PER
2010-2011: 5.8 PER

what's not to like?
 
People hate him because they confuse lack of PT with lack of production. Fans of every team want every player to be an all-star all the time. And most do not see the subtle values some guys bring, they just look at the box score and see 2 points and 2 rebounds a think "what a loser". They cannot see from the box that he shut down the paint for 5 minutes the he was accorded by the coach.

Fes brings good things every game or almost every game. He is really still young and maturing. He has improved and shown his value numerous times when given minutes. Look at his last game of the year, where he shut down Bynum and put Kobe on the floor 3 times.

Jazz coaches have been too stuck on running the offensive system and unwilling to get out of that box. I think the team would have been better off with Fes getting more minutes.

I agree. Why have an offensive or defensive system? The PG should just tell the guys to try to get open and he'll pass them the ball. Better yet, he should just put up the first shot he can and tell everyone to crash the boards. On defense, coaches just need to tell the players to stay in front of their man and not get beat.

Coaching and team offense/defense is SO overrated. You could put in any coach, give him three of the best players in the league and a championship is guaranteed. Oh wait...
 
The problem with Fesenko is the same problem with Ostertag. Neither has a great love for the game so it's hard to keep them motivated every night and focused on improving their game.
Ostertag would have that one great game where he would be rebounding, blocking shots, finishing at the rim and getting everyone excited - then you wouldn't see it again for another 3 weeks.

It's in a fans' human nature where, the less you see of a player - the better you like to think he is.
 
Fesenko is rahter a go to bench guy. I dont know about his work ethic, but he is really not talented at all. I dont see any positive sides he brings to the game, except his big body which is a God gift, not something he worked and improved.
Lets stop having hopes about Feesenko plz.
And ukraine wont be participating in European basketball champonship. Even if they could, they wouldnt win any game at all. Becuz this year, all the nba stars are gonna play in the tournament, and its gonna be really tough tournament.
Only 2 of the following teams will make to the semi finals due to the schedule,
Spain, Turkey, Slovakia, Russia, Germany, Lithuania, Polonia, Serbia
and 2 other teams from the other seed.

and Ukraine under the lead of Fesenko wouldnt get 20 points close to any of these teams.

(P.S. I know its not interesting as nba, but i intensely recommend people to watch this years euro champ, it will be hell of a competition to attend olimpics)
