Hey all,
LONG time lurker here. I actually forgot that I had an account set up, until I just came to set one up. If any of you remember me, I am the one that set up the draft contest in 2011 on here. I usually come here to check in on news and opinions from fellow jazzfanz, but I thought it was time to actually start putting in more time for our Utah Jazz.
Introductions out of the way, let's get down to business. Tonight I have been reading comments from fans on all sorts of social media. I got so annoyed that I felt compelled to come back and share my voice in defense of the Jazz.
First off, people need to calm the hell down. These first two games (and the next several) are against REALLY good teams with experience. The Mav's have Dirk, who is a freak of nature/hall of famer who is surrounded by a damn good supporting cast. A supporting cast so good, that their weaker role players (Jefferson, Harris) were starters on the Jazz. Of coarse Chandler Parsons looked good, he is their 3rd (at best) go to scorer.
Our guys CAN be just as good if not better, but give them a break! Hayward is our oldest starter, and has been forced into being our "best" player. I am sure I got just as frustrated as anybody watching tonight's game. I just hope we all have faith like I do in our new coach.
Let's just calm down, have a couple extra drinks, stay true, and enjoy the ride! I've been patiently waiting all summer for this new Jazz journey and even through growing pains I am stoked that basketball is back!
GO JAZZ!
