Unreal expectations

how tough has Jazz schedule been?

Jazz schedule is ranked by Sagarin as 9th toughest (top 30%)

Philly: A below average team playing without their best player.
Philly Sagarin team rank = 12

Denver: Last in the division despite a favorable schedule.
Pretty clearly not true. Nuggets played Miami twice, San Antonio, and seven out of ten road games Denver's Sagarin schedule ranking is 4rth toughest
 
Siromar likes to bend the truth to make a point.

Philly is good, not a championship contender but we shouldnt be guarnteeing a victory against them on the road
Denver has tons of talent, they are just struggling a bit right now. Once again, a loss to them on the road is to be expected.
Boston, still have KG, Pierce, and Rondo. Should lose to them on the road.
SA and Memphis are two of the better teams in the league.

The Jazz should have won one MAYBE 2 more games. We arent that far off of where we probably should be.
 
Since when did it become unrealistic to expect our team to run an actual offense? Because the crap we run on that end of the court looks an awful lot like me and my hack buddies playing at the church gym.

It's not necessarily the Wins and Loses that are troubling but the way that they have occurred.
 
Denver, Boston, and Philly are just as good or better than the Jazz. The Jazz will win 5 of the next 6 and everyone will be fine.

Boston without Rondo playing for most of the 2nd half. And it's not just about the teams we lost to, it's about how we've played in those games...

I actually think kennykyle is on the money here. I say the Jazz win at least 4 of the next 6, with one of those games being very close.
 
I'm not too worried. We're an extremely solid home team-- they're just psychologically retarded on the road.

Last year, New Jersey did better than Utah on the road.

In fact, we tied with the Golden State Tankers as far as road records go.

This team is garbage on the road. Absolute garbage.

If we can even do 5 games better on the road this year, that would be spectacular.
 
Also the Jazz might try using Hayward as the focus of the offense, not as the main scorer but as a distributer and playmaker. If the jazz ever do this he will become an Allstar that has the ability to put up a line of 18/4/6/1/1.

Oh please... he will never average 6 assists. Even 4 is a stretch. He is just not All star material, not sure what are you smoking.
 
A stretch, even though he was off by 0.9 in his sophomore season?

Yes, because it is assists and not points. 2-3 assists average is not that difficult for any player who gets around 30 minutes. To average 4+ you need some skills. So far this season he is at 2.4ast/game, career 2.1/game.
 
i have realistic expectations but i still want TyCo fired because he sucks and his offense is to conservative and one-dimensional.
also he is kinda creepy.
