I didn't watch the game but how true could this be? We outscored them 21-20 in the 3rd. They outscored us 30-19 in the 4th.

The bulk of that came in the first part of the third. The Jazz were actually up by 21 at one point in the third but the Wizards ended the third with a 6-0 run, with nobody but Favors and Hayward from the bench being on the court. The bench came in a played like crap, but most of them had been sitting from 4 minutes of the 2nd quarter until the start of the 4th quarter so I get it. After that the starters came in held onto the game by the skin of their teeth, mostly because the Wizards are a crappy team who couldn't capitalize. Nene must have blew 5 or six layups.

Not to mention the bench built up a 22 point lead in the 2nd quarter only for the starters to come in and knock it back down to a 14 point lead.

Read my earlier post. The bench blew the lead last night, but since that doesn't fit certain agendas it's time to change the facts. Same thing with the Miami game. It's ridiculous.

The run was started with the core starters in the game. The bench continued it for sure, but they were cold from Ty's dumbass substitution patterns.

Dennis Rodman used to go into the locker room and workout during the game sometimes.
Maybe our guys might try that. I felt I played my best right after doing a little lifting. It seems it gets your muscles psyched up for action.

Starters were Net 0 from when Favors came in to the end of the third.

The bench was -14 to start the 4th. Then the starters came back in and pushed the lead back to 7.
 
What I really want to know is what's going to happen to the guys who put suck powder in Al's hair.

I bet it was Evans. He always looks like he's getting away with something. I bet he and Enes were laughing their asses off the 1st half watching Al lumber around scratching and sucking.

Burks with a -14 in 3:26. SLCDunk in an obviously biased post, goes through the play by play and says he did nothing wrong, blames Watson. https://www.slcdunk.com/2013/1/24/3911968/jazz-guard-alec-burks-and-the-anatomy-of-having-a-14-in-3-26-of-action

For those that watched the game, do you agree that for the most part, that 3:26 was a Watson fail?

Yes, he should have had more control over the tempo. They were playing too fast, shooting too early, it was sloppy ball. Burks really capped it with that CJ style chuck that got him yanked but mostly it was just undisciplined play and Wall going nuts.

This is the NBA, teams will make runs. It's not like the bench sucks and they deserve to be crucified for inconsistency, and if everybody was a vet (or everybody was on rook contracts) we would still blow leads from time to time. I'm not trying to be down on the young guys. But making up stuff isn't a very good way to make a point.

Doesn't matter what actually happens when you have blinders on. Most the malcontents were Fire Sloan before they shifted into a Fire Ty crowd, and were Free CJ before they were Free Burks. People with no basketball knowledge have delusions of grandeur in thinking the Jazz would be a fourth seed or better without Corbin. They probably also think they're highway engineers and the folks building bridges should be replaced by the next group, who should be fired too.

A few on here don't like things about Corbin for valid theoretical preferences, but they're few and far between.

Hard for me to swallow the notion that bench players need to warm up to have a positive impact. I'm also pretty sure that there wasn't much deviation from Ty's regular 3rd quarter rotations. Blaming the early 4th quarter on something that happened or didn't in the 2nd doesn't make any sense either.

The 3rd was pretty much a wash overall, the starters gained 1 point after going up and down a bit. Tinsley had a couple uncharacteristic turnovers late, I assume that's what you mean by the starters letting them back in it. When Watson and Burks came in Utah was up 17.

I guess I'm having a difficult time getting your point. All I can get out of what you're saying is "Ty is a dumbass, therefore so are all his substitutions."
