What's new

I think the story of this team has to include a Rock Bottom

I think this is it. At least I hope so.

The schedule eases up from here, but we have a long way to go if we expect to be contenders again.
The stats on floaters suggest that things are ****ing broken. They’ll have to adjust things and struggle through those adjustments. This ain’t the bottom. And the defense is slipping, too—indicating that they’re getting further from the same page
 
Tonight wasn’t our Rock Bottom. There’s further to fall.
I forgot about this thread and said as much in the game thread. I'm afraid to watch where we're headed, but eager to get it over with..
 
He should he has all the offensive weapons at his disposal now

Does Snyder take any heat or no?

Tyrone Corbin would have this team on a 60 win pace with his well oiled, traditional style of running a trial and error offense, then sticking to what works best and is consistent. Snyder, a great coach in his own right, prefers a more gimmicky style that works sporadically and very well at the peaks but falls apart hard in troughs.

If Corbin could squeeze efficiency out of those Al Jefferson squads just think what he could get with this. Pythagorean wins tells you all you need to know when it comes to Corbin vs Snyder. Corbin won more than expected, Snyder has lost more than expected every season.

Are we there yet?
 
Ty Corbin wasn’t a bad coach, the only thing that I have on him is the influence that he had (similar to Quin’s) on the FO over the starting PG for the Jazz. Causing the Jazz to draft Trey Burke and letting the likes of Giannis pass by...
 
Fwiw, I think DL gets too much credit for Gobert. They thought they were drafting a backup big and kept trying to force him into that roll long after it was clear he was far superior to Enes. Rudy deserves credit for Rudy.

FWIW, I said “they” not “he” (i.e. DL). And I do think they deserve some credit.... But of course Rudy’s own hard work and determination shouldn’t be minimized.
 
Sorry Naos. Lazy writting on my part. Wasn't trying to start an argument.

Ed Davis: “We’re in that fire right now. It’s gonna go either way — it’s either we’re gonna come out and it’ll be like, ‘Damn, they bounced back,’ or **** can get ugly. ... We’re a veteran group, good coaching staff, guys who wanna win, so we can turn this thing around.”
 
I feel like tomorrow's game is make or break. Players have had time off to think about things, coaches have had time to reflect and evaluate, players have been at home not hotels, the team has had time to practice. Either we're going to come out as a refreshed and unified team and curb stomp Memphis big time... or it's going to be more of the same struggles. If we play well and destroy them I'll have some hope left for this team. If it's more of the same then I think it's time to call the season a massive disappointment because I'm not sure how you fix it.
 
We need to woop somebody's butts to get the positive juices flowing again. Lets hope this starts against Memphis tomorrow.

I like Ed Davis the press conference guy more than the player... That is exactly where we are... its a tipping point... the schedule alone won't save us.
 
Not sure where exactly to post this. But I thought it was interesting. Apparently Greg Oden was at the Jazz practice facility today.



Obviously he's retired. But I wonder if he spoke to the guys. He has a motivational story. Could have just been visiting Mike though.
