David Locke is a Clown

Snyder definitely isn’t “the problem.” But he sure as **** is not the solution. Obviously, we can’t just get a new head coach and do nothing else. We need to shake up the roster. But it’s also time to shake things up, bring in some new people, new perspective. Like Boston did last year. No one thinks Brad Stevens is a bad coach, but that Boston team needed a change and it worked out. That’s the way it goes. Snyder is a talented coach and a good guy and he will coach in the nba for as long as he wants to. But we need to shake things up here.
 
I use to listen to Locked On daily. I dont anymore. I think since Ryan Smith bought the team, they definitely turned the dial up on the propaganda.

Though there is still value in listening to him. You have to kind of read inbetween the lines of what he says and how he says it. He definitely doestn believe everything he says and you can tell if you've listened to him for a while.

Quin was just one of the problems. This implosion is mostly DL's fault. This is what happens when you go all in on a 6'1" pg when you already have a 6'1" shooting guard. Plus, to compound the height problem, you have a 6'4" power forward.

This roster reminded me a lot like those 2006-2010 Don Nelson Golden State Warriors teams, but never in a good way.
 
Locke is an employee of the Jazz and he spins things the way the organization wants them spun. Maybe this means Quin is coming back. I remember how he would routinely trash DedEx and Uncle Jeff before they were moved. You would have thought they were the worst players the GLeague has ever seen.
 
Hassan couldn't be in the game last night... he just couldn't. He has options like Paschall and Hernangomez... hell dust off Rudy Gay. Hassan was always going to be situational in the playoffs.

But Quin didn't really experiment with 5 out during the year enough... the ****** sample mostly came in games where injuries and Covid absences necessitated it. He didn't experiment enough and I think it is the biggest issue in this series. They adjusted the defense with bigs but he could never trust a 5 out offense or defense enough to mothball Hassan... so yeah... he gets some ****ing blame too because there is enough for everyone.

Listening to him on DJ and PK... Saying Quin wasn't the problem and that he remains one of the NBA's best coaches. Woof

Lol. So clueless but then again you’re one of those sea licker fans, so you’re expected to be clueless. Everyone knows anyone with a lick of sense knows to avoid the sea lickers
 
The good news about not believing Quin is the problem is that we can spend another couple years spinning wheels until we realize that's the case. We will get worse results next year, and I'd expect this same argument to happen. You can't have guys consistently not coming out ready or focused over the course of an entire season and not point blame to the coach. Again, it's the captain of the ship blaming the guy at the wheel. If the captain isn't always at the wheel, there's some assumption that nothing can be his fault.

He's gone... per my Best Buy rumor in the other thread... too many threads today.

Also, why not go to Hassan in the deep post if he is in the game? He's actually been proven to be very effective against small ball. You can tell his energy was super low because he would never get the ball. A couple time he ran the court on fastbreak to get deep position against a small in the post and he never got looked at.
 
With Quin its a staring contest... Doc is trying to do the same thing. They both want out... they both want their money... they both want to get that double check... so what do you do? You go full Castanza and get fired or let go. We have to say we want him back... or else Danny can't get that second rounder and Ryan can't save that money.

Locke and TJ are the ones pumping the breaks here... they are company men not to be trusted with rumors imo.
 
I can't stand him, he is pure pro jazz and justifies all their mistakes. Is this guy paid by the Jazz organization?

Agree... he's better with his hands than Rudy... It's wild we never figured out how to adequate punish 5 out lineups that are small-ish (its not true "smallball").

I wish they had never signed Whiteside and forced Snyder to experiment and introduce small ball into his system. Whiteside signing was supposed to be situational, take burden off Rudy, add another guy on the bench. But what happened is it allowed Snyder to just play his normal Gobert scheme the entire game, every game of the season. And of course, the every good team knows how to disable the Gobert defense now. They all saw the Clippers series. It’s been happening all year. And he never tried to build another option we could go to.

Well Rudy Gay was supposed to be good too, so that kind of ruined that whole thing.

Plus EP couldnt rebound to save his life, so they could do that either.

Quin had no choice when it came to backup center for the regular season.
