Wow. Great win. All aspects, all players were looking good. While everyone is rightfully praising Gobert, I think Dfavs is missing a little bit o' love from us fans. He is the reason why DF & Rudy can play together. He's showing his offense capability now and it will get better still. DF...

Thriller - thanks for posting... the thread was a bit boring until you offered up some opinion. Your summary point below that "players should be held accountable, young or old" is not the issue. In this case, it is about how to maximize the investment you have in an asset. As noted...

In Thriller's absence: "Its just one game"

Its just one article.

I don't know about the pure point guard thing so much as Trey was lauded as a good pick n roll player coming out of college. That aspect should enable him (provided its true) to fit into the offense of Dr. Snyder - the one who has a PhD in pick n roll. . Trey is baffling to me. He can...

There are two reasons that you'd consider trading favors: . First is trading for draft picks. The idea of a mature player for draft picks is what San Antonio believe(d) in because they had a big three who were expensive. George Hill was good, but couldn't afford him and was a similar piece...

So... where to start.... First JJAS and Cy are fighting, Thriller is back to full hyperbole mode. There's a reference to Mormon polygamy, 2 pages of JohnWall vs Westbrook, and only 14 pages for the day's game thread. The losing is takin' its toll on the fan board. So I guess it's time to...

We have bagged on all the players in some form or other with some players getting serious baggin... But the reality is the team talent is not as bad as the team record in my opinion. Watching the defense is painful and this is on the coaching staff. QS sounds good, has a good plan, etc, etc...

This was a game of such emotional rollercoaster. I was furious and then fully wilted in the first then elated with the comeback and hopes high... then to lose only to be heart broken. Well now that I've recovered, it was definitely entertaining! It was a good game from Burkes and Kanter...

It all hinges on Exum, because all other scenarios are marginal improvements. Exum as top 5 is a franchise changing improvement. Level 1 is "Exum just a good player" and then a few of the scenarios play out, then the Jazz might make a 50-win team with some 2nd round play offs in the future. ...

And finally with respect to Burkes and Exum and shooting... First it is clear that there is brick element to Burkes shooting. Second, he is pushing himself on drives to the hoop and so he takes some low percentage shots. This is acceptable to me. He has to learn. Additionally, he takes a...

Also, regarding Burkes' defense... there were times in the second half where his physical posture was not correct and getting worked by Lou Williams. This includes the weak sauce 4pt play opportunity of someone in the corner and a couple of mid-range shake and bakes by Lou. I think he's...

I think Cy's reference to Exum's play is true. He is not as aggressive as Burkes. In the 1st and 2nd Qtr, I had time to get out my note pad (like fishonjazz does for Burks) to record both Exum and Burkes activities. ( started with the score was 11-12.) But the summary was that Burke has...

Concur. The bolded part had me wondering if Ty CANT or WOULDNT. While the "play veterans or youngster" debate is behind us regardless, I think it was the symbolic debate of what the overall plan was or should have been. And looking back it was possible that DL and Ty were not on the same...

One of the difficulties of reading a fan site is that as soon as one of the players (i.e. Kanter or Burkes lately) are not performing folks ask questions like "we should be tradin' him" and while that conclusion might be true there is a lot time and work that needs to be done. Additionally...

The point of this year's Jazz is to move to a mid tier team beating teams like Nix (and Indiana) on the road and then getting some bigger wins at home. The Jazz of the recent past usually get pasted on the road. As someone noted at the moment of the clutch shot, that there was clutch work by...

Trey getting worse at shooting this year... I'm just hopeful it is a function of a lot of strength training. It was clear last year he's valuable, but not shooter. It was clear last year he's clutch. I'm still holding out hope for him to be a good player.
