What's new

Matt Harpring "Do we even have an ****ing offense anymore?"

Congrats to Matt for calling it like it is. Language is a bit strong, but it's in the heat of the moment. Expect him to be punished by the Jazz org. If you're not a schill for the team like Locke or Brown, you'll eventually be silenced. Matt will probably be calling Hawks' games next year.

Locke yesterday morning was criticizing Corbin for running Foye off a double screen and taking a 21 footer instead of moving it to the 3 point line. Excellent overall interview. https://1280thezone.com/index.php/audio/listen/dj_pk_david_locke_on_the_utah_jazz4
 
Is that on Corbin, Foye, the screeners, or all 3 ? I doubt Corbing is setting up plays to get 21 foot jumpers. Players have to execute said plays.

Corbin, considering I wouldn't run a single catch and shoot play for Foye. The guy can't hit anything but threes.

It's a common play though & this is just Locke stat geeking. Sloan used to run these for D-Will a lot where he'd catch the ball toward the baseline. Williams ran them so much harder and used screens way better than anyone the Jazz currently have. This team is a hodge podge of garbage being dragged along by Al Jefferson.

Yep
 


If its true that jefferson is the only good player on this team then that is really sad and this team should probably be blown up.
I actually think the jazz have alot of talent however, so i disagree.

He's not the only good player, hes the only player with a skill that he does very very very well. Low post scoring. Favors will be an elite defender but he isnt there yet. Other than that ............ A bunch of averagesssssssssssssssss, this is not Ty's fault. Its not really anyones fault. The Jazz are doing the best they can with what they are. A mid market team that a lot of players in the nba dont want to play for. A vast majority of teams in the NBA are a bunch of averagessssssss. Heat, Thunder, Lakers, Spurs being the obvious exceptions.
The chances of the Jazz taking two HOF'ers ever again are pretty god damn slim, but that is the only way the Jazz get back to the Finals. Take the goggles off and thats what youll see.

A good low post scorer doesn't average 2,5 fta per game in 33 mpg. So its not that very very very well imo. Im not saying that he doesnt have moves, just saying he dont have that quickness to successfully perform it or end up at the ft line, so maybe thats why he prefers to stick with his 15 17 foot jump shot most of the time.
