What's new

So what is the lesson the players have learned about Corbin.

The thing I like about Corbin is he will change assigns if something isn't working. Andre Miller beat our pgs then Carroll the other night. Then Hayward stopped him for the rest of the night.

Yea I wish Favors was getting more minutes.
 
Hornets went over 7 minutes without a FG with Favors/Kanter/Carroll/Hayward/Watson on the floor in the 2nd period.

I'm not sure you could do much better than that.

The Jazz only scored like 6 points during that stretch though, there was one point where there were 5 maybe 6 turnovers in a row. They werent playing great, Austin Rivers just sucks that bad.
 
gregbroncs was right. This isn't about bitching about something that happened during a win but rather something that happened that makes me question the direction of this team. Millsap has been a good player for the Jazz, a hard nosed, lunch pail guy through the years but he is what he is. A guy who on a good night might give you 20 points and 10 boards and play decent defense. That's on a good night and those nights have been few and far between. Now you have Favors starting to really turn it up and he played his *** off against Denver and his reward? 17 minutes on the floor and watching Millsap get his minutes. Sure, Sap played well, but that's beside the point. Is Favors the future or is it Sap? If you're Favors, how do get up for a game when you know that you're probably going to sit and watch most of it, regardless of how well you are playing? After the game Monday night, I thought there was no way Favors would sit on the bench for most of the game unless he was in foul trouble but I was wrong. It's really incomprehensible and unjustified to me.
 
I think Locke made the point in his blog that Favors was not going to be guarding Anderson in this game. Therefore Sap over Favors in the 4th, for defensive matchup with Williams out.

So, maybe it wasn't complete madness.

I wrote pretty much exactly this in a response early on today but scrapped it. Fans are pissed about the build of this team and are venting frustration by throwing temper tantrums over every breath Corbin takes. Smart coaching decisions used to get recognition here.
 
Al Jefferson had 19 and 7. His guy had 18 and 7. Jefferson really dominated both sides of the ball. David Locke was jazzing all over his pants about Jefferdad when I was listening. Jefferson took 16 shots, Lopez took 9

BiGAl Jefferson +6, 3 assists, 1 TO, 2 BS, 3 ST
Your Lover Lopez -7, 0 assists, 3 TO, 0 BS, 0 ST
 
It is sad when people are more excited about discussing trading current players for an unknown than they are about a team that has obviously made some improvements in weak areas and it is having a positive impact.

Trade Trade Trade! That grass is DEFINITELY greener!
