Our offense was ****ing pathetic in that quarter and Watson was getting abused, again, by Chrissy. Absolutely zero on-the-fly adjustments from Ty.
The sad part is, this team has enough talent to be a strong 5th seed, but Corbin doesn't know how to use them. Trade Millsap for a good point guard and the team might be good enough for a solid 3rd seed.
But talent doesn't matter as long as Corbin is the coach.
Cobin is the coach, not the GM sir.
There were some serious issues to deal with as far as substitution goes.
Millsap was not very effective, Favors/Burks were in foul trouble in the first half, and Kanter guarding Griffin is probably a disaster.
For the people pissed that Ty waited probably 2-3 minutes in the middle-late 3rd while the starters began to foul constantly and stopped moving, what would you have done?
When Favors came back he committed 2 stupid fouls. Fouled Crawford way late and then drove right into Odom. Burks has been way, way better than he looked early on but he fouls too. Hayward played a ton. I hope you guys don't really believe Kanter/Millsap would have saved the day.
Now, the last play isolating Foye was not a great move. IMO Ty could have done the same thing with Burks and let the kid fly. We didn't need a 3 and Burks had been pretty good. But besides that, we were beating the opponent, it was the referees that removed the 5 point lead late.
Gee, I didn't realize the GM decided who played. Man, how could I be so stupid!
Yer right, but if Corbin made adjustments, Del Negro would just make adjustments and the Jazz would be right back where they started.
Maybe Ty is just playing the percentages--if Chris Paul makes his first 5 shots against a specific defense set, he should miss his next 4 or 5, shouldn't he?

What did you think about all the calls? Seems like we got hosed overall. Refs were calling it different on their end.
Apologist keeps working. Damn, bro. Get your prescription updated.
Ty's stubbornness can't even be broken by Mo's absence. The big prob in the third was defending Paul... for which he did nothing but EXACTLY what didn't work in the 2nd. And, you go with effective bench players with slight foul trouble before you hemorrhage your **** all over the floor... especially when you're just gonna auto-sub them in the fourth.
