The Jazz have one of the worst defensive starting lineups and one of the worst thrown together backcourts in the league. They did well to win as many games as they did.
Lol. No. The Jazz are an 8th seed level team after trading away their superstar for rookie and young, developing big men. If you think that's a bad move then okomgrofl.
Those who thought this team would magically better by adding an under achieving SF and two bench guards are kidding themselves. Some of us got over excited, that's all. We're fans, go figure.
What are some specific examples of Ty losing games for the Jazz. Obviously he has been far less than perfect, but what are some blatant examples of him costing the Jazz an easy win? I remember them being brought up but cannot remember what they were.
So you agree, that the young big men are the future? They're essentially replacing our PG superstar and franchise player?
So why are they collectively (barely) playing more than Big Al? Why the hell is Big Al and Millsap still on this team? Are they the future? Are they replacing Dwill?
So then your problem lies with the coaching, right?
Folks, you can't have it both ways. You can't praise KOC for his acquisition of young talent and then excuse Ty Corbin's lack of PT given and development of the young players.
Either Corbin or KOC has failed. Choose which one.
Man, you sure are putting a lot of words in his mouth, and then demanding he make a decision NOW NOW NOW. What's up with that?
I never said that Kobe won that game. I was giving examples of poor coaching decisions by Corbin. Foye guarding Kobe Bryant is a poor decision.
Not to beat a dead horse, because I think you make some valid points otherwise, but Kobe scored 34 and 29 in the two wins and 14 in the loss. He is averaging 27 for the season. I don't know who guarded Kobe for what periods of time during these games, but in the loss we held Kobe to 13 pts. under his season average. I just don't understand how you can characterize that as a coaching failure.
Utah is less talented than Houston? Wtf? Denver? Memphis?
I really think some of you (well mostly just hartsock) need to step away from the jazz Kool-aid and really look at things. Either the jazz are really just an 8th seed talent, which means that koc has completely sucked. Or, the jazz are a 3-6 seed talent level but underachieving because of their coach.
It's one or the other.

You try to make it to clear cut. Players don't always play to the level of their talent every night, regardless of coaching. The Jazz have underachieved at times because of Corbin, but you can't blame Corbin for all of the team's shortcomings, which is what some people on here seem to be saying.

Actually, it's both. The current talent level is 7-9, but the future talent level will be 2-5.
Yes.
Thank you, Jazz fans have this romanticized version of the youth. Sure, they might end up being very good or even great. But as of right now, right this second, they are just pretty good with a ton of potential. Ty has not screwed this team out of anything. Favors gets a rebound against Chicago theres a win, Carroll doesn't get smoked by Reddick theres a win, Mo makes a layup in cleveland theres a win, those are not on Corbin. The blame goes for every one on this team from Al on down to Murphy, KOC and Ty are also included, everyone needs to do their job better.
