Reading the Tea Leaves

I'm not sold on Burke, either. I think that pick was a mistake. Trey can't get his shot off in the NBA. He couldn't do it even in the summer league.

They wouldn't fire him based on win/loss but rather their confidence in him as a coach.
Nothing dirty about that.
 
Michael Carter-Williams shot 32.7% from the FIELD in the Pre-Season, and 27.3% from three.

He will never learn how to get his shot off in the NBA. Geez, was that pick ever a mistake.

Yea, because business never gets dirty. It would be slimy because Ty wanted to sign vets while Lindsay wanted a full rebuild. To blame Ty for everything is wrong. The roster sucks except for the first 4 or 5 guys and there are several inexperienced players on the team.

I know most people have wanted Ty gone day one so that is probably why some people might not think it is slimy especially when you consider all the stuff Ty has had to deal with. However, I am sure Ty haters don't see it that way.

Hes been given a interim season, a lockout season, a FULL season, and now this season to get it right. I don't know how many chances your supposed to get as a head coach, but if regression is all a coach is showing up to that point, I don't see what the point would be to extend his contract.

This is business in the end is about the Utah Jazz, not Tyrone Corbin.

And say what you want, other than the point guard position, he was given a stacked roster last year.
 
We can trade Favors..maybe we should. His stock is high right now.
I would be disappointed in losing Burks but i would understand the decision.
I'm excited for the coming off season.
 
Rush, favors, Burke stay. Building around defense, shooters and team concept. Burks gone. Imho.
 
You don't trade Favors until you have a real coach. Especially when Favors and Burke look like they are made for each other.

P&R with Burke and Favors, with Burke having the ability to pull up, drive for a layup, toss an oop to Favors or kick it to Hayward open for a corner three.

When Burke comes back, we will take another step back...for a couple of weeks. Once Burke gets going, this will be a completely different Jazz team.

I think you keep Favors for now, and don't even think about making a decision until Kanter comes up for an extension/2014 draft finishes. Take the BPA and then see what happens after that. I don't move Favors unless it brings back an All-Star. Not potential, but someone who is a current All-Star.

This is a great point that hasn't been brought up yet. It would be interesting to see what someone else might be able to do with this group. Just another reason why Corbin should be gone.

I don't know if I agree with all of this. I look forward to Burke's return with cautious optimism. He will be an upgrade from what we have but I am not ready to declare him as a top 15 or even top 20 PG in the league.

I never said top 15 or top 20. I just think this team really needs a leader. Big time. Someone to run a play and yell at the players if they don't play defense. The vets we have are just collecting a paycheck, and Favors, Hayward and Kanter don't seem to want to step up and take responsibility for the team.

I disagree completely. If you're looking for a big time coach you include them in critical decisions early. Political correctness be damned.

So, you would trade Favors before you brought in another coach? I'm not quite sure I understand you.

I do think you key in the new coach on any trades and personnel moves. I don't think you move (give up on) Favors yet.
