now that we are winning, the "balanced" and "fair" among us will proudly proclaim that Corbin has had nothing to do with any under-achievements. ...right...
If the past four games are in indication of something, it may be that Corbin is figuring a few things out. Increasing everybody's role in the offense is a good idea.
(first update) Offseason to-do list:
(no order)
1. Let Mo, Foyeeee3, Al (s&t?), Watson, and Tinsley go.
2. Re-sign Carroll
3. Draft McCollum, Schroeder, and Giannis (leave the latter two in Europe for a year [maybe two years for Giannis]).
4. Sign Tony Allen
5. Try to keep Millsap. If that doesn't work, explore s&t options.
6. Remove Corbin. Hire Brad Stevens or SVG.
7. Sign Calderon to a one-year (2 max) deal, or see if the cash-strapped Lakers will let us absorb Nash's last year.

Maybe it's just the fact the Jazz added 3 major pieces to the line-up during the off-season? It takes time, you can't expect them to be completely gelled by the start of the season.

Mo is a "big" piece. Foye and Marvin's names have no business being next to the word "major". And, yeah, I'd expect them to hit highway speeds before the season is 25% over...

They combine for 53 mpg and they are both starters and our best 3pt shooters, I would call those major pieces.

You are trying to compare a play that has 2 sec left on the clock with one that had 6 or more. The Stockton shot was a play that had several options it just happened that Stock got open and even stepped up to get a better shot. Mo dribbled out the clock and took a tough shot with a defender on him (granted not very well defended). Stock's shot was probably 45% chance of going in. Mo's shot would probably be 30ish. With 6 sec I would try and run a cut or drive and dish. With 2 sec I would have been fine with Mo's shot.
Are semantics fun? What will we get for these major pieces (Foye, Marv) when neither are on the team past next year's trade deadline? I'm assuming a few #1 picks.

Not to mention that Stockton went on a scoring rampage in the 4th of that game and was on fire. No better person to take that shot in that game. Compared to mo who was off all night and its a big difference
You don't to be an All-Star to be a major pieces. I can call them "key role-players" if that makes you feel more comfortable.

Holy ****. I'm as bi-polar as they come but this board is ****ing beyond ludicrous. We beat a God awful Lakers' team (right now anyway) and won a game at home at the buzzer and all of a sudden we're playing great ball and on our way to a championship.
We won't even win 50 games, won't get out of the first round, the Warriors will end up with a better record than us, and we'll re-sign Ty to a two-year extension, folks.
We will win 51 games as presently constituted. That'll get us a date with the Grizz, and we will be a tough out.
All this changes if a trade happens.

How much you wanna bet we win 50 games, and Steph Curry goes down for another Warriors tankfest??

$50 per bet. You win both, you get $100, I win both, I get $100. A split and it's a wash. PP is my preferred method of transaction.
But you agree that if Millsap plays like an MVP and Hayward like he doesn't belong in the d-league that the Jazz could be contenders, right?
