An Actual Thread About Basketball

[David Stern]

Yes, Its amazing I know. I don't want to end any experiments.

I'm just curious on some things, because I haven't watched the Jazz as much as I should this year.

1- How many pick and rolls are we running as opposed to last year?
2- How efficient are those plays?
3- Who are the most efficient pairings?

I'm sure somebody in the world keeps stats like this, so I'd just be curious to see if anybody knows. Now carry on with the Ryan S thread.

The Jazz, as Deron pointed out during a conversation with Monson, can play a lot better on offense, and should play more consistently on both ends of the floor. THe Jazz are currently 24-11 and have won some close games, which could have easily gone to other way. If guys figure out how to play better in this system and get better as the season goes on, which they are supposed to do like any new group of guys coming together and trying to fit in a system, they can be much better than previous Jazz teams of recent memory. I would say they can finish the season in top2, given that SAS and DAL are much older and have a lot less room for internal improvement. You can see the Jazz offensive efficiency has been climbing in the standings and this is a positive sign IMO. Lots of work to done, though.

...answer to the first question: Not enough to suit me!
...answer to the second question: not very....which is why we ain't running as many as last year with Boozer. Fact is, whatever we are doing, seems to be working fairly well or we'd just be a .500 team and in disarray...like the Lakers are!
