Dear FRONT OFFICE: NO ONE WANTS TO WIN GAMES WITH RJ AND MW!

Franklin please don't fix my posts. Getting the 21st pick did not get us Burke. If you have Harrison Barnes you could have traded other assets or future picks to get Burke.
 
I just want to gouge out my eyes, this thread is so stupid. I enjoyed watching the team play well, and seeing the team just look like they enjoyed being around each other.

I'm getting less and less worried on wether we get a top three pick as I gain more and more faith in Burks, Favors, Kanter,Burke, and Hayward. All five are looking like they they will all be good seartaintly none of them will be busts, and believe the core 5 will be contenders with a good bench.

Yeah, but the five (plus maybe Gobert) should be playing all their minutes together and ALL have a usage rate of over 25%.

Hard to tell if you're being serious.

There are 30 qualified players in the NBA with a usage rate of 25% or more. 4 (Trey, Gordo, Alec, Enes) of the top 93 in usage rate are on the Jazz. Favors comes in at 131 (although he's 58th in touches per game among those who have played 20+ games, just a hair below Dirk). These young players are being given the ball more than any set of young players in the league. Has there ever been another team with 5 players under the age of 24 with usage rates above 19?

Among lineups that have been used in at least 20 games this season, there are only 2 in the entire league that play 20+ minutes per game together, and 7 that play 15+ minutes per game together.

There isn't a coach in the history of the NBA who would do what the average Jazzfanz poster is demanding. Y'all are ****ing retards.

Serious question

Is there a coach in the history of the nba with this much talent under 23 years old all on the same team and all playing a different position combined with such a small amount of veteran talent?
 
Also @ gvc.
What have your thoughts been about favors and kanter playing together lately as well as kanters overall play of late?
Have not saw any posts from you about that recently and im just curious of your thoughts

No idea. That'd be hard to confirm. Seeing that I've already answered one claim/question in this thread, I'll give someone else an opportunity to answer one of my questions before running around to answer that one.

With that said, the Jazz are putting the ball into the hands of their 5 young players. They are the players who are making the decisions that decide the games. The vets (Marvin, RJ, Rush) are playing complementary roles. If you dump RJ, someone else takes his minutes, and there's a decent chance this team will be just as good as it is now.

Ty isn't under contract next season; he's trying to win games. As such, he's trying to build lineups that work together and give the team the best chance at accomplishing that. At the same time, he's doing a very good job of putting the ball in his young players' hands, and letting them decide their fate. The consistent poise and competitiveness they're showing is pretty encouraging.
