Utah Jazz @ Sacramento Kings - Nov 24 - 8:00 PM MST - Root Sports/NBA TV

Promoting a head coach from within was really stupid.

Hiring a head coach who had never been a head coach was really stupid. Ty shows no signs of getting it figured out either, he seems to be throwing lineups out there and just hoping they work, especially when they are loaded with vets.
 
Jefferson to me was one of the main reasons. 14 points on 16 shots and bad bad defense. I can think of two offensive possessions right off that lead to turnovers. One he held the ball for 12 seconds then realized the clock was running g out an threw it up and another on defense Favors bailed him out to only have Al not go after the rebound and he kings got it back.

Not to say others were to blame (Hayward and Mansap) but Al was one of the keys to this loss

Favors had 2 points on 6 shots and his defense wasn't making that big of a difference out there.

Everyone sucked. Al had to be brought in because we couldn't get anything from anyone offensively. Al has been pretty golden in the 4th quarter most of the year. Foye missing 3 FT's in a row really deflated the team and boosted the Kings. It was just an unfortunate night of suckitude.
 
As much as it has hurt, I've given very little emotional investment to this team. While we've fixed some glaring holes from last year's roster, it is just too damn clear what a Jefferson-led team can and can't do.

How can you get into a team with such major road woes, lack of youth development, and with an offensive schema that will certainly grind to a stop if/when we make it to the playoffs?

The excitement level is way down now that the reality is becoming clear. A Corbin/Al/Mo led team is pointless to get invested in.

People wet there pants over Foye hitting 4 long balls, but ignore all times he was abused on defense. Love Foye's offensive punch, but 30 mins is way too much.
Where the hell is Burks? There is no plan for his development other than sitting, and watching this mess?
Marvin is so streaky, and really only looks good at home. I'd limit his road mins, and look to give Burks or Carroll more time here.
Sap for the first time since I can remember came back worse from the year before. No fire, no passion, he's going through the motions, and it shows.

How long must we struggle as our team leader Big Al watches people drive to the basket. When he left the game was there anyone else hoping it was more serious
that it turned out to be?

lack of identity, plain and simple.

KOC's stubborn insistence to play the long game with Jefferson (that is, refusing to trade him after his reason for bringing him to Utah had long evaporated) is just laughable. There are two young bigs that need experience right now. I've been chafing at this for so long that I'm starting to want both Al and Paul gone.

And, this Foye **** is just bonkers. Would anybody have bet that Burks WOULDN'T have a few rough spells during his first couple of years? No. He's a horse that you can't break the traditional way... I can see that from here.

I just can't see why the FO can't use the assets we have to get a PnR PG for **** sake. Favors and Kanter both need it. This Jefferson-low-block-hostage-ball is bad for everybody. Bless Hayward for giving it his best shot, but you've seen what moving to the bench has done for him. "The Bench"--that is, less minutes with Jeffy.

So glad we lost. Hopefully we lose the upcoming Denver game. Then, the next three after that are on the road followed by a game vs. the Clips. Cross your fingers for 7-12 and changes being made.

You think 7-12 would force management to reconsider Corbin as a head coach? I highly doubt it. And as long as Corbin is coaching the team, the Jazz will never build a contender. So, I'm hoping for a generally disastrous season so that we can move on to a team I can care about again.

No, if I'm being honest, I think we'd need to be sitting with a record around 14-25 but a man can hope, can't he?
 
I hope the Jazz lose 15 home games in a row so the Millers can demand that Corbin do something else or get fired. The tickets become super cheap, Burks and Favors start, the Jazz start winning, and we get a new coach next season. YAY!!!!!!!

Most likely we will be just average. Many teams sucks more than us and Corbin has to much talent (players) at this moment to suck big time.
 
al was poor but to be fair, even favors was woeful tonight. he's gotta stop with this goal-tending on continuations crap. dumb, dumb, dumb.

atleast favors try to play defense if he sometimes does not suced so what
al jefferson jsut stands there

actually he makes room for the opposing player. clearing a lane to the basket.
even when he is in the position to take a charge he moves out of the way

screw jefferson
