What's new

Jazz vs. Grizzlies game thread (8:00 pm MTN)

Just a couple of heaves that have gone in ... not good shots , past 10 games this crap have been airballs , don’t be fooled , the offence is still crap
Maybe the airballs are what has been fooling us all along.
 
It's nice that Jeff had a good game but I don't believe he can stay consistently positive. Joe was great, he should play more with starters, especially with Gobert.
 
Its too bad conley is out right now. Bad timing. He needs to play in these type games to get confidence for himself and for the team with him. Pretty easy stretch right now. Need him playing during this easy stretch.
Anyone know how long he is supposed to be out?
 
dude it's because of the way he plays regardless of the outcome of whether he makes a few shots or not. He's so blinkered in the way he sees the court
7 assist in 22 minutes is pretty good imo. Maybe there is a chance that a 23 year person can still learn new things.
Regardless, he is usually a positive in plus/minus despite playing with dudes who are usually a negative in plus/minus.
 
Folks bashing Mudiay need to be reminded few facts: He is one year younger than Exum. He is paid 2.7 mil only. He signed with us because he felt our coaching staff will make him a better player.

Can we get a Brantly 3
Its almost like the jazz coaching staff and management are trolling us. They play niang, bradley, exum, morgan, and Oni...... yet just refuse to play the guy we all want to see the most out of the scrubs, Brantley. I also would rather see JWF than the other scrubs.
 
Gotta give it up to Dante tonight, not a single turnover.
lol
Post of the thread. Though he did manage to have a turnover a little bit later lol.
 
I know I've been rough on Niang but it's really hard to understate how badly his minutes have hurt us.

- His defensive rating per 100 possessions is 109. Below average.

- He averages only 1.6 defensive rebounds per game. Only 5.4 per 36. Well below average for the position.

- He creates no turnovers or extra possessions. 0.1 offensive rebounds per game, 0.3 per 36, 0.6 offensive rebound%. 0.0 steals per game, NONE in 172 minutes played. 0.1 blocks per game.

- He averages just as many turnovers as assists 0.5/0.5.

- He's a non factor offensively inside the arc. No post skills, no driving ability, no midrange game. He doesn't get to the line, only 10 FTA all season.

- The argument I've seen to explain why he's on the floor is "he can shoot". And yeah he's 39% from three. But the Jazz don't even utilize him as a shooter. How many times do we run a play to get him open for a three? Never. He takes 1.8 three point attempts per game and only makes 0.7 threes per game. We're playing him FOR THE SOLE PURPOSE of less than 1 three made per game???

- His +/- is -55.


Basically to sum things up, during his 10.8 minutes per game on the floor the Jazz are playing at the equivalent of a 5 on 4 disadvantage
Its crazy how obvious it is to literally 100% of jazz fans that niang shouldn't play anymore yet the one person whose opinion actually matters can't see it.

I mean, Morgan and Oni are both better prospects than Brantley (and Brantley was playing in a Stars game)
