What's new

Timberwolfs at UTAH JAZZ Friday Jan 28, 7:00PM

Quite honestly, some of us puked our guts out at the thought of Bell as a starter.

Me = One.

Dude played half way decent this year so far, and me = stupid.

Now, not so much.




Just the same, Deron bitched about losing Brewer. Jazz made financial decisions to let Mathews and Korver go.

Those decisions were considered obvious by many Jazzfanz. Especially Wes Mathews.

Anyone remember how Portland was trying to screw us by jacking up our team salary? Millsap and then Mathews?

Turns out, Portland was trying to steal our RFA's. Go figure.


Long story short, Boozer always sucked, but multiple 1st round picks mean nothing when acquiring a true center. Too bad we have a 4 playing 5 and a 3 1/2 playing 4.

Nevermind.
:mad:

A win is nice, but a team getting 20 steals should destroy Minnesota at home.

Yeh I got that feeling, T-Wolves 25 turnovers. That team is strugglin and it took AK play his best game and Paul to play really well for us to hang on and win. Too much inconsistency on the jazz. Only consistency lately is raja bell will struggle. Get to the gym raja!
 
Sweet!

We rule! We can beat a team that is 29 games behind the Spurs, 14 1/2 games behind the #8 spot, by 8 points at home......

Have our expectations fallen so greatly that people are actually calling this game a good sign? We avoided another L. But other than that???........

What exactly are our expectations? Serious question.

When you're in the midst of a catastrophic 6 game losing streak than yes, I would call a game like tonights and the one vs the Spurs a good sign. Our expectations should always be to win, we did that, that was what I expected.
 
now 2 out of 43 games for raja with double digit scoring.... so weak... start cj already
 
The timberwolves can score. And we rebounded well also.

Good win, still need to get a 2. Doesn't even need to be a good player. Anything is an upgrade from The Raja Smell.

On one hand, CJ is the only player in the 2nd unit that can do anything in a half-court offense. On the other hand, the 2nd unit runs, the 1st unit doesn't and they still can't score in a half-court offense in the first half.

...

I lost my train of thought.
 
I hate that Raja is struggling, but if you bench him, then he his likely the first one off the bench either way and we end up with the same struggling line up. Because Raja is going to play either way, so how do you fix it?
 
A win is a win, so thank god for that tonight.

That being said, is it too much to ask for 10 points out of the Raja/Memo combo?
 
I think Bell could play a little better if he would play in short stretches of say 5-6min couldn't hurt to try it what's he going to do start missing WIDE OPEN shots and playing average defense, the only thing that would take a hit is offensive fouls drawn.
 
I know Fes got a lot of grief for taking himself out of a game so Elson could come in since he's a better FT shooter, personally I didn't mind it and thought it was pretty good self awareness. The reason I bring this up is I know I can't be the only that thought wouldn't it be nice if Raja could swallow his pride and be self aware. Realize him playing 30+ min is not good for the team and take himself out, I know it's not realistic and wouldn't happen but just sayin'.
