We don’t come close to winning this game without him. He’s really starting to come to form. I think it’s time for some apologies and time for 95% of this board to eat some crow.

Like I’ve said all along he didn’t just magically lose his talent. He’s a great player and will be great to have in the playoffs.

Couldn't agree more. (Don't rub it in too much though, cause it makes the resistance all the worse.;))

Yup. But there is also lots of posters who hate him, like Utahjazz32 and natebooz. You may also include jumpinbean and Shad (although he seems to hate everything lol). Criticism to Conley has been warranted (and the trade too) but to hate the dude, I don't get it.
 
He's doing his best Rodney Hood impression right now. Let's see him string together maybe 6 games in a row instead of 6 games all season before we pass the crow around?
 
It's almost like adjusting just required time or something. Who would have known.... oh wait... I've been saying it the whole time.

I honestly can't believe people didn't see it coming. Rubio was garbage in his first 50 games or so with the Jazz too. He eventually figured everything out and started playing his best basketball. It made sense that Conley would figure it out and start playing his best basketball too.

Point guards have trouble adjusting to this system for whatever reason. I think it's because most lead guards these days grew up dominating the ball and we don't run our offense like that. The ball moves more.

Sure. I looked back his last 12 games. He is STILL a -5 in +/- total in the last 12 games together.

You asked about 6 good games. You are actually shown he has played well for 12 games (besides Pho), yet, you cherry pick a pretty dubious stat to support your argument. +/- shouldn't be used out of context to measure individual performance. Can I ask you about other players +/-? We have been blown out a few times during that stretch. Also, Conley is playing more minutes with the backups. All in all, Conley has been good in the last month. We have been crap and inconsistent because our defense.

Last 10 games
16.8 PPG
48.4% from the floor
40.3% from 3
3.9 Reb
4.9 Assists per game
1.8 TO per game
It's more than 6 games all season, he's played well for the last 10 games or more. The game before that he had 22 points, 4 reb, and 4 assists on 45% and 67 % from 3.

You guys need a new whipping boy. Conley is doing what the Jazz need him to.

I feel more confident in him right now... he’s had good games but tonight was a little different imo... he’s also been super solid last 10-11 games as you noted.
