That's a problem in its own right. Same with managers I have worked with. The ones who are intense and never let up tend to burn out and be harder to work with. But you can be intense, and driven, and still have a looseness to your style that helps you be more resilient and you will get better results and not kill yourself by the time you are 40. Sounds like Quin just burned himself up and that explains an awful lot from that last season really.
100%
 
10/12/5 in 24 minutes is ridiculous.

I love Kessler and I think he’s gonna be great.

He was amazing this game, but to Cy’s point, I saw a couple plays on highlights where after he got the block, it led straight to an offensive rebound and score.

Part of that is on teammates not getting the board together with him, but part of that is also a point for improvement for him.

Part of it is just basketball. rarely is a player perfect at everything on both ends at all times.
 
Ya'll aren't talking about what REALLY happened. 4th quarter, losing by 4. Coach subbed in Ochai for his first clutch minutes of the season.

His play was unheralded, but he was a +5 in less than a minute plus we won the game.

RELEASE THE OCH!!!
 
The last 2 minute report says two incorrect calls.... so hilarious. Its a wonder NBA officiating hasn't improved with this deeply critical analysis they do on themselves every day.

I’ll confess that it’s been a couple years since I’ve really read through L2M unless it’s something very specific, but it seems they’re adding more detail. Here’s one that caught my eye:

Period: Q4Time: 00:14.8Call Type: Foul: PersonalCommitting Player: Kelly OlynykDisadvantaged Player: Jordan PooleReview Decision: CNCVideo Url: Video
Comment:After gathering the ball, Poole (GSW) brings his arms up as Olynyk (UTA) steps forward toward him, and contact occurs to Olynyk's face. Poole is entitled to his vertical space (even though he is not shooting) and since he did not extend his arms forward into Olynyk or appear to seek out contact, the contact is deemed to have occurred because Olynyk is moving forward towards Poole's space. Given the fact that Poole is not in a shooting motion, a no call is appropriate. If a foul were warranted, it would be on Olynyk.




 
Okay, so that formatting got goofy and I couldn’t post after that without it being messed up, but WTF is the bolded? They say it’s a “correct no call” but then say “if a foul were warranted, it would be on Olynyk.” Like WTF. You just said there wasn’t a foul. What’s this “if”? You’re saying a foul wasn’t warranted, but if we pretended a foul was warranted… why Olynyk? “It doesn’t meet the criteria, but if it did, then it would.” WTF writes this mental masturbation? Steve Javie?

“It doesn’t meet criteria. But if it did, then it would.”
 
I was watching the game and when the tech happened my wife was trying to ask me something and I said hold on I need to see this call. When it went how it did I was like, okay what's up. She got half way through the question when I heard the steal happen and I interrupted her and ran back to the TV. I was too late and she was a little upset. I saw the replay right away and made her watch it. She forgave me right away. Thanks Jazz

And both of those calls "erroneously" benefitted the jazz. How about that?

I love the explanation on the Clarkson flagrant 2...well we called the replay center and decided it was a flagrant 2. Such spin masters.
