Jazz @ Raptors - Tipoff at 5:30 PM MST - 3/2/2016

[FalseFlagg K]

What is the record when the Jazz give up more than 100? Don't think it's very good. The interesting thing is that they play really well in the 1st quarter, awful in the 2nd and 3rd quarters, then come roaring back in the 4th quarter. Minus Burks and Exum. It really feels like a very subtle tank job by the front office and Quin Snyder. All the damage is done early in the game and not necessarily with the core starters all playing together.

tank job to no purpose Is there a decent wing shooter available 10-15 in this draft ??

How did we have that winning streak again? Was it all a dream?

Home (5): Cha, Min, Chi, Den, Mil
Road (2): Pho, Dal

You look at that schedule and the Jazz SHOULD have been at least 6-1. I guess Charlotte qualifies as a quality win since they're 32-28. We caught Dallas napping in the 4th. The 7-game streak was never a reflection of how good the Jazz were. Nor does this losing streak mean the Jazz are this bad. It all averaged out. Utah is about a .500 team with serious deficiencies on offense and absolutely HORRIBLE PG's.

so we suck at winning AND we suck at losing? (picking 13th or 14th, is a ****ty tank job)

 

[Diamond77]

No. I'm referring to all the people that said Burke is better than Mack.

So you were expecting Burke to win the game alone when we were down by 11 in the 4th quarter?

What you saw so encouraging in Mack's game?

I and others have posted more than enough stats on this board to show that the plsyers all play considerably better with Mack than with Burke. This is just getting dumb now.

Yes, but there was one available in the last draft and DL went with the ballerina. Could have EASILY signed a decent PF or wing as a free agent to strengthen the bench. Instead, Jazz re-upped Johnson, Ingles, Millsap and signed Pleiss. Only FA signing that made sense was Withey to back up Gobert. And that AMAZING trade at the deadline. WOW!!!

I don't think they decided to tank until Burks got hurt and wouldn't be back until well after the All Star Break. I just think that Quin is tanking with his mid game rotations and then the starters get a chance to bail the team out at the end. Or something similar to that.

 

[Sneakers]

Whatever, we were doomed after Rodney went out. Hard to read anything more into it. There's no way us without Rodney beats them even at home. Its a wash.

 

[LifeOnaPlate]

Would Hood have made a difference? I feel like this team needs to dump Ingles, Booker, Burke.

This is dumb. Snyder wants playoffs. Team wants playoffs.

 

[Jazz4ever]

Are we really whining about losing to the #2 East seed on the road without Hood?

 

[Sneakers]

He wouldn't have hurt. If he got hot, might have made the difference.

Anyway, you're right. I think those 3 are all gone this summer.
