Uta vs. Hou: Game 2 off/def strategy change up?

It's pretty obvious Houston wanted this and the Jazz don't give two *****. Four Jazz men around Chris Paul and he ends up with the ball. SAD.
 
Mitchell doesn’t look exactly right to me. Does his butt ook big and legs look awkward the way he’s running to anyone?
 
Then you’re either stupid or ignorant.

Golden state would be kicking our *** as would Portland. OKC would beat us this year. Not to mention the top EC teams.

This has much more to do with us doing nothing last summer than with Houston being a bad matchup. We should’ve known that we had to upgrade last summer. The don’t know why we didn’t.
Cuz Dennis Do Little is a ***** GM. How many teams were out there getting fantastic free agent deals? Meanwhile Dennis is deciding how much to give Niang to replace Jerebko and which white guy he should draft. Sign the kid from Duke...that makes us look great in the eyes of Quin and Snyder gets to pay back his college coach by having another Dukie go in the 1st round.

Lindsey has repeatedly put profits over winning. Check that...the Jazz organization has repeatedly put profits over winning. It was Larry's mantra and Gail has been no different. ALWAYS finish in the black. To win championships, owners often have to lose money. But they more than make up for it by the appreciation of the franchise over time. What did Larry H. pay for the Jazz? What is it worth now? If the team is that desperate for cash, sell it to owners who WANT to win. I'd rather cheer on the Las Vegas Gamblers or the new Seattle Sonics than watch this abomination.
 
Bench is 6 for 23 and we are shooting 17% from three.

I will be surprised if we steal a single game this series.
 
Kemba be like: Bitch, please. (he's not giving
Utah any thought)

I disagree. I think that we are an ideal landing spot for him. He wouldn't have to carry the entire offensive load here next to Donovan which is something he's never had the luxury to enjoy. Offense would be much easier for him. Rudy and our defense would make him look like a great defender. He's never had the luxury of playing for a great coach, he would have that here. He would be playing for a fully supportive and loyal front office which he wouldn't get in a lot of other places he could go. And he would instantly make this team a championship contender. His offensive capabilities are literally all we lack.

Where else can he go in free agency that provides similar opportunities? The Lakers maybe. Does he really want all that drama and organizational instability though? The Hornets can't even get to the playoffs. The Pacers are farther away from championship contention than we are. They would lose more important pieces of their team in order to sign him than we would.

He should definitely be considering us. And vice versa. It's an ideal fit for both parties.
 
Gobert is an enigmatic. Jazz can't win without him, but can they win with him?

Can a team afford to pay him supermax and still compete?

A friend once debated me that Gobert is a good player, but that the Jazz won’t ever win one with him. I told him he was crazy and doesn’t know **** about BB. But the more I watch him I realize that defense is one thing. But the nature of the beast, the NBA is offense. And until he becomes better at it, he might not be one to take us to the promise land.
 
If they gave Mitchell a free floater, he would be playing pretty well too

They don't have to because Mitchell can't do everything like Harden can, again that's the entire point that's being lost on you. If Harden was a scorer only like Mitchell who struggled at the rim then I guarantee he wouldn't be getting floaters and kick outs for free.

Of course Harden is better. No ****. But we are giving Harden the lane for free and he is surrounded by guys actually hitting shots. If Mitchell got a wide open lane, he would be playing much better according to stats.

Dude. He would be slowing down the offense He wants post ups from 15 feet out. He wouldn't see the floor in this offense
I don't know what you guys have against Melo (other than he is a Jazz killer). The guy has proven he can play with anybody and any style. Syracuse ball sure wasn't the same as Olympic ball, yet Melo got championships playing both.
