When you listen to players and former players talk,a lot of them place way too much value in your ability to take high level difficulty shots. THT embodies that.

You are finally off the THT train?

This.
Last night Hendricks goes 2-3 from the field (efficient), has 4 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals, 1 block, zero turnovers and only gets 19 minutes. He was a plus in plus/minus. Only 1 foul. He was our top draft pick who didn't get to play much this season and could use minutes for development purposes. He is the reason many fans are even watching these games. Why only 19 minutes? Luka gets 34 minutes. So weird. Seems like their minutes should be flip flopped.

Early on I thought his lack of playing time/bad reports behind the scenes was a reflection of TH's level.....Now I think it's moresoe a reflection of whatever weird evaluation Hardy has of him. He hates TH lol. Maybe he's complete trash in practice....idk....but his performance on the floor is just fine. Easily our best rookie when it comes to winning games.

Key got 33 minutes doe. He has played WAY more than Hendricks.

Maybe they still want to evaluate Key (keeping the draft and who to pick in mind). For me, Key is still a question mark. He doesn't look like a PG for me, so far anyway.

I think Infection hit on it when he was discussing that some in the FO were basically that Tay Henny isn't any good because he sucks. While I think that is a bit harsh at this point I can see that Hardy is getting his marching orders and the lineups reflect that.

lol. He is a 20 year old rookie who they drafted #9 overall who has played quite well for the jazz all things considered.

Yeah, his defense and 3 pt shooting alone give him a very high floor as an extremely valuable role player.

I agree. It seems like a waste to play Luka as he isn't in the Jazz plans.

Yeah, still think he has potential, but he's willingly sabotaging himself without enough signs of progress

If you aren't playing Clarkson or Sexton you pretty much HAVE to play Key, no?

Could say the same thing for Hendricks.
If you aren't playing Lauri or Collins and you traded Simone then you pretty much have to play Hendricks, no?

I mean Preston, Kira, Dunn and tht could all play more minutes like Luka did and key could only play 19 minutes like Hendricks did, no?

Haha that is definitely not the case. This is all about Hardy just being his usual dumbass self. There isn't a single person in the front office that is telling him to play anyone over Hendricks. They want that kid playing as much as possible.
