My point was that when the offense becomes stagnant you can't just give him the ball. With somebody like Mitchell you can give him the ball and he can make something happen, pretty much regardless of circumstance. Obviously bigs can generate offence but they still need the ball and they need...

Your examples involve others getting him the ball in spots that he can take advantage of which Is exactly what I wrote already. My first post even talked about wanting him used in curls towards the rim more. So again, I'm not sure what point you disagree with other than the semantics of what...

No argument from me on that. I don't see anybody on the current roster who could have turned that around last night though.

You ended up just agreeing with my statement, so I'm not sure what your point is. The fact is, Lauri is 7ft tall and bigs cannot just be tossed the ball on the wing and told to go to work in the same way as a guard. They are reliant on others to get them the ball in situations which they can...

Very ugly 4th quarter, but can't really put too much blame on Clarkson. The offense had completely stalled prior to him coming back in the game. To the point it seemed like a struggle just to get a shot off. Overall a game which highlighted issues with everybody: - Lauri - very costly...

Are threads always so polarising here? It's pretty incredible.

I agree with this which is why I ended up creating an account. I'm European (not Finnish ) and watch for entertainment rather than having a local team to support. As you say, most NBA teams seem to play a rather ugly style in my opinion. Utah started off the season playing beautiful...

So you want to defend Sexton as having only played 3 games as a PG (ignoring the fact he has been in the league for 4 seasons prior), but you call Wiseman a prima and not worth a roster spot? I do think Wiseman has abysmal basketball IQ, but he is also 21, 7ft tall and the thread is about...

Wiseman could be worth a punt. He certainly has some skills and he is tall. His feel for the game is pretty horrendous (abysmal defensive awareness) when I've watched but maybe it will improve. Somebody else that I would like to see given a chance is Goga Bitadze. He is a bit of a clumsy...

Unless the team starts winning again, or they can't find a buyer for the vets that seems likely and probably the best route for the team. As a neutral who just enjoys watching team basketball I would like to see him be used as a 6th man. He can be an efficient scorer and leading the second...

I should say, I am not really a Lauri fanboy, which I'm sure you have plenty of joining the forum :D I did originally start watching Utah this year due to him (on my fantasy team), but stuck with watching the Jazz due to the style of play. The NBA is so guard iso heavy I was looking for a new...

Sexton has been playing better and you have to give him credit for that. I certainly can't say he has been the reason for the losses (everybody on the team has weaknesses which have become more apparent). I personally still find his style of play incredibly annoying though. He does many...

As somebody who has enjoyed watching the Jazz this year, but has not been a Jazz fan (although did enjoy Rubio's tenure), I felt compelled to create an account for one purpose. That purpose is to say Sexton is awful and simply doesn't understand how to play as part of a team. Whenever he is on...
