Game Thread Jan 19, 2022 07:00PM MT: Jazz vs. Rockets

Added to Calendar: 01-19-22

I’m beginning to wonder if we should blow this up and get a ton of assets before guys start demanding trades and their trade values plummet? If we’re lucky, we could bounce back pretty quickly with Rudy still having a few more good years. If we build back with longer and more athletic players, we’ll be just fine. The tiny lineup stuff just doesn’t work in a league that’s predicated on long athletic position less players that can guard 1-5.

Like seriously, what could we get for Spida, Joe’s expiring, Clarkson, and Bogey? Some good role players and some good draft picks? Score a Ja type player in the draft? And we’re back in business.

there's just not a whole lot of margin for error when you are just slower and smaller than your opponent. when you lost your man it's game over. it's impossible to recover. maybe we do need to trade every single guy on the roster. most of them anyways

You gotta can Quin. Bring in a young coach that doesn't pick favorites, and makes sensible rotations. I guarantee you if we traded Elijah tomorrow, he'd torch us for 30+ the next game.

Hughes, Paschall would be great young guys to build around. I thought they had great chemistry together in the game vs Toronto. They also have interstate ties to NY, so theres surely some sort of bond they have together.

I wouldn't say go completely overhaul the team, but our coach, and some players have to go. Times running out on that.

yeah this funneling everything to Rudy stuff needs to stop. it clearly won't take us anywhere, especially now we are getting even older and slower. we missed our window and it's all downhill from here

He actually came out and said that again.



It really exposes that he views this as a roll of the dice and is hoping that if he does it enough, he’ll get the really positive outlier at the right time.

Bruh just roll harder and really focus when you roll… that Yahtzee is coming.
 
Quin did play some new guys tonight but it's Forrest/Doke instead of Paschall/Hughes/Butler. And it was that Doke/Forrest lineup in the third which allowed Houston make a big run to come back and take the lead.

Yeah maybe pick a different group of guys next time.
 
I knew the rockets were bad but they’re the worst team in the west record wise. Honestly, I’d be very open to trades if I were Jazz FO. One thing we learned painfully was holding onto players for too long. Boozer, Dwill, etc we could’ve gotten more assets had we acted proactively. It’s hard to get assets when players leave or demand trades. I think it’s getting to that point now. We don’t want to become portland. And seriously, the more I think of it the more it makes sense. Spida could get us a lot right now. If/when he starts demanding trades, we’re gonna be in trouble.

The warriors or nets are going to win it this year. If we get some good role players and score in the draft, we could be back to making a run in two years. Much more preferable than the 3-4 years of Corbin kr however long that dark period was

Agree with you, but no chance Ryan Smith does that - he's a win now owner.

Translation… the coach either doesn’t have his guys prepared or they quit on him? They lazy AF?

I know we keep saying Joe/JC are great locker room guys and we need them and yada yada… but the way this team is rolling they will have to make a change.

You can feel the negative energy and we start to panic the second things start going the wrong way. No mental toughness no dawgs… can’t shoot yourself out of every problem.

Rockets do jave some good pieces and are playing well after a rough start… that said this loss was tough. And the sad thing.., I’m not surprised at all.
 
**** is coming if the FO’s mouthpiece is calling out the team and saying it feels exactly like when the Jazz traded Deron.
