Veteran heavy roster for 2nd half of season... WHAT THE?!?!

Corbin hasn't made up mind about changing starters and likely won't until Bell's healthy. But he's looking to shake up second unit and ...

... said he might move Gordon Hayward to bench as a result. Nothing determined, though.

If Hayward's bumped down, Jazz would likely start Harris, Bell, Howard, Millsap, Jefferson, going veteran-heavy in second half of season.

This is getting really ridiculous. We need the youngins' to get the experience as much as possible this season - so they don't suck again next season. Has Ty been reading this forum and thought "I'll show them".

It's becoming a farse.

Yeah that made me sad in the pants. As I posted in the Fire Corbin thread, to hurt the development of the young players for the outside chance at an 8th seed and a lost lotto pick in a talent-laden draft is borderline retarded.

 

[Dr. Jones]

That looks worse than ridiculous to me ... looks like blatantly obvious tanking. Harris, Bell, Howard ... they wouldn't make the NCAA tourney, lol.

This is going to be awesome. Watching a bunch of suck *** nobody's doing the losing for us. Id rather watch the rookies lose our way to the lottery. It's just embarrising watching those so called pros

 

[Bodhi]

This is a joke based in practicalities, right?

 

[Surely]

I think it is becoming obviously clear to anyone paying attention that Corbin is in over his head, I mean wayyyyy over his head.

Look at the bright side. All of our young core will be playing together and we will have the only team in the league that has a better bench than the starters. HA HA

If we can just trade CJ Miles to free up time for Burks.

I posted how the management is risking youth development a couple of weeks ago, without any signs of change, and all I got was neg rep from homers like Cyrone.

I really honestly hope I'm wrong. But it really does seem that the Jazz would rather win a few more games NOW.

Playing the vets more wont help the Jazz win now... It will help them lose now.

 

[Stoked]

If this is indeed the case theneither Ty is in over his head or is knowingly tanking.

Playing the vets more wont help the Jazz win now... It will help them lose now.

That may or may not be true. But the general belief leans toward 'youth means more losses now and more wins in the future'. The Jazz would rather take wins now. It is incredibly disheartening since they have almost zero chance of making the playoffs.
