I thought Butler was going to be a huge addition for us in the games Conley missed but the kid just doesn't look ready yet at all. I still think he's going to be really good eventually.

He missed 3 shots. Had only 9 minutes, only handled the ball a bit, played good D and got yanked. Bad move by Quin. That TO by Forrest was a big momentum change.
 
Jazz didn't play a full game. This reminds me of last year when we lost games it would be because we had a bad quarter. DM needs to get his act together. All the talk about overcoming slow starts did little to change it. JC I love the kid but sometimes you gotten know you do not have it. Hopefully they got their bad shooting night out of the way and can go to Milwaukee and shot the lights out.
 
I also remember the Jazz talking about cutting down on turnovers but they still turn the ball over too much. Many of them are just just play dumb ones too.

He have no feel of the game yet. Sometimes momentum stops when he have the ball
 
If Rudy Gay can score the ball well enough, he'll take a chunk of minutes from Royce and Bojan. He might even put one of them on the bench.
 
Still love JC, but he needs to pass the ball on his drives, if for nothing else to keep the defense honest.

Butler doesn't look like he belongs right now. He still needs minutes, even if he costs us games.
 
Damn.. Couldn't we have ATLEAST went to Whiteside tonight? Let him go on one of those Big Al tears with 10-12 post plays. That's the one thing I don't like about this era. They are trying to do away with the post game.
 
I knew Al Jefferson and Whiteside, sir, is no Al Jefferson.
Yeah but he is huge with good hands and a decent post up ala Boban when he's got a mouse in the house like tonight. Although Rudy is more athletic, Whiteside is definitely more sure handed and better with his back to the basket IMO. No way Vucevic or Bradley could stop him down there. Maybe with time, Snyder will recognize Whiteside as a scoring option....hopefully.
