Game Thread Jan 19, 2022 07:00PM MT: Jazz vs. Rockets

[Handlogten's Heros]

I knew the rockets were bad but they’re the worst team in the west record wise. Honestly, I’d be very open to trades if I were Jazz FO. One thing we learned painfully was holding onto players for too long. Boozer, Dwill, etc we could’ve gotten more assets had we acted proactively. It’s hard to get assets when players leave or demand trades. I think it’s getting to that point now. We don’t want to become portland. And seriously, the more I think of it the more it makes sense. Spida could get us a lot right now. If/when he starts demanding trades, we’re gonna be in trouble.

The warriors or nets are going to win it this year. If we get some good role players and score in the draft, we could be back to making a run in two years. Much more preferable than the 3-4 years of Corbin kr however long that dark period was

Rockets do jave some good pieces and are playing well after a rough start… that said this loss was tough. And the sad thing.., I’m not surprised at all.

I don't think Clarkson was trying at all on defense tonight. Just look at some of these plays.

It is certifiably insane that Dok and Forrest played over any of Paschall, Hughes, or Butler.

**** is coming if the FO’s mouthpiece is calling out the team and saying it feels exactly like when the Jazz traded Deron.

Man, something went bad in that locker room. I don’t know if it’s player conflicts or what, but this thing is going from bad to worse real quick.

The Jazz look poised to take their collapse of last year’s playoffs and retell it over the course of an entire season this time.

time to fire Quin. Hes clearly not the answer.

 

[416Klawzz]

Quin's favoritism and bias to play only certain players will result in him getting fired and I hope it happens really soon of there goes our season yet again.

 

[LoPo]

I just don't see Quin getting fired. If we had a .500 record with this expensive roster, I could see it.

We just don't have a championship caliber coach or roster. And it's extremely disappointing because we were so close.

Jazz are overly dependent on flinging 3pt shots. They need a wing who can put the ball down and get on top of the rim.

Or just find Rudy inside. A bud from Philly texted me yesterday to tell me about Embid’s 50 point night. He also said hey I’m sorry but you guys have the dumbest offensive schemes I’ve ever seen (talking about us setting double screens on the three point line in the Laker game and ignoring Rudy down low against a wing in their small ball lineup). He knows his hoops having played college ball back in the day - and I happen to agree with him.

Locke said that? Cuz that’s the first thing I thought when we lost tonight. This stagnant team feels exactly what it felt like before Deron chased Sloan out and then got traded. There’s zero chemistry out there. This is bad. And if other smarter people are noticing it, then it’s time
To blow up this team before trade values plummet even further.

I believe he’s referring to Tony Jones.

I see he put out tweet about it… then he deleted it. Interesting
