For anyone wondering why Alec played 12 minutes last night...

Well, first off, these aren't good shots, he is off-balance every time. Secondly, that's his problem - he is a decent shooter with his feet set, and has even worked on a quicker release, but he is terrible off the dribble. He just can't get his body balanced, and his shot arc tends to be flat. Which is basically why the defence is happy to give him these kind of looks.

Agreed. He is rarely set or squared up, often drifting to one side or the other. In other words, his shot fundamentals stink. Sad, because if he had worked hard on them he might be pretty good. But as it looks now, he better start working on his Mandarin.

I've noticed Hayward has this problem too. He is often off balance and rushing shots. When Hayward takes a balanced shot it usually goes in.

Coaching and video watching should have fixed this early on. It is crazy, these are basic fundamentals of basketball.

Rewatched his shots last game and don't see this at all. He was very square on his spot ups and drives don't the paint. His handoff and screen roll shots have been much improved as well. He just needs to keep working and get better.

Yes. He did a better job getting square and balanced against the bulls.
 
Burks is the player I was really hoping to see break out this year. Been disappointed but I'm hoping he can turn it around. I really like his potential
 
lack of system also screws it up.

i eman wtf dont know what play is called. what play is run.
suddnely you have the ball in your hands

ZOMG that would be lame.

So the Jazz should just quit darfting players cause they all da suck for the evarzz.

However on a much more serious note I feel the same way about you. We as Jazzfanz must have failed you and never developed you into anything resembling a competent poster for that I apologize it was not our intention of turning you into the Morris Almond of posters. A player that had a glimmer of hope that he would bring shooting to the team but he was a one trick pony who's one trick he couldn't do despite his repeating and repeating and repeating and repeating that one trick over and over and over and over.

Obviously as I previously stated this is on us as a board as Jazzfanz we have failed you, so it's not you it's us maybe another board could cultivate your "talents" and needs better.
