I love Tinsley's court vision but the fact is he just can't guard anyone. Last night he tried to grab Barbosa's shrit on a drive and missed.
You know you're slow when you can't even intentionally foul any more.

not to mention he isnt a scoring threat... the guy cant even shoot, soooo the pg defending him just stands back and waits for him to driblle and pass... he has good court vision. he would make a better coach then player at this point. i think it so strange that we have two back up pgs that cant shoot the ball for crap.. aka tin tin and watson.
Once we accept our limits, we go beyond them.

That's why Foye must be the backup pg and Burks backup sg. At least Corbin must try this a couple of times.
I don't hate Corbin as much as the vocal majority seem to and he did try it in Memphis I believe and they played horrible but that was with Evans playing the 3. Point being I would like to see it as well especially with how bad Tinsley has been playing the last few games.
You realize that playing someone for 5 minutes every 10 games does NOT count as "I gave you a chance and you failed". Right? The NBA is very tough and younger players need to play A LOT of minutes to even hope to touch their potential. Kanter will never be an elite player playing 14 mpg. Never. And the damage that is being done to Burks can last his entire career. Young player need minutes, and sitting on the bench for years on an end inflicts permanent harm to their development.
I do not hate Corbin. I think hating him is stupid.
However I do beleive that he is not the right man for the job. He will never be a coach of the level that the jazz need to reach a championship.
No sense trying to get the right players if you knowingly keep the wrong coach and staff. I liek Corbin, seems liek a nice guy. But I don't want a nice guy. I want the right guy.

That's assuming the management is either oblivious or indifferent to the problem, and that they just hope to stay good enough to compete for that last playoff spot on the cheap. Nobody is expecting the Jazz to go 60-22 with all the young players getting full time minutes. We expect them to take a season or two of playing together to get to the same level (marginal playoffs team). But the potential payoff is FAR better than what we currently have.
If the management is indeed forcing Corbin's hand, then the whole point is moot. This is the product they are willing to offer and things are working as intended. I can accept that. The NBA is the only sport I follow, and the Jazz is the only team I care about. I'd just focus on my other interests, and life goes on.
I was more speaking towards Burks low playing time then Kanter's at least he gets some minutes each game and the last 2 games Kanter has been erratic, looks like he's forcing again, he's probably just trying to hard. But with the way he's played the last 2 games I was okay (in this case) of his low minute total.
As for Corbin I get just as mad at him as I did with Sloan but without the benefit of the doubt because of what Sloan had accomplished. So I can't say one way or the other if he is a long term coach or not, I am of mind that since this team wont be ready and is growing for a couple of years I can understand that the Jazz FO is allowing Corbin the same time and room to grow as a HC.
Seems to me that the problem would be solved trading Burks for Bledsoe, assuming that CP and Eric were both willing to sign extensions. Those guys are starting Willie Green FFS. Kanter is a project. Favors is just now getting his. Gordon has been playing a large role. The only odd men out are Evans who is probably not ever going to be even a serious role player, and Burks.

I thought the Celtics would be worse without Pietrus, Allen, and Bradley. But they are not bad!
I like what I've seen from Bledsoe, and I'd think about trading Burks for him straight up. Can he run a pick and roll? and how good of a passer is he?
Mo's shot and decision making in the last two minutes of this game were absolutely piss poor. Still, my guess is he'll win a few games for the Jazz this way as well. Just hope the losses don't add up more than the wins.
It started with Earl [Watson], Randy [Foye] and Marvin [Williams]–the veteran guys. I thought the young guys did a good job of following their lead getting us off to a good start. - referring to the Jazz/Bobcats game on 3/1/13
Earl, Randy, and Marvin started the first quarter 0-3, scored a whopping zero points, and finished with a turnover in the first quarter.
Your head coach of the Jazz ladies and gentlemen.
