Holy crap people relax! He needs time, its obvious, but he with Milsap will be rolling later this year. The jazz have a simple yet complex offense you really have to understand all that is going on so you can be effective. He will get better. They haven't even played 10 games!

We're not even 10 games in. It could take a full season for Big Al to truly adapt to this style of offense.

He is playing with little energy and his little push shot is not working at all. Not to mention he isn't boxing out well or making some simple 3 foot layups. I think Al is a really nice guy but he needs to get a lot better than he has been.
Absolutely. Im not worried about Jefferson at all. It's just going to take him some time.
Well put. If he shows some pride and guts, he'll show us something tomorrow.
That's all good. But meanwhile, he should not be getting 35 mpg. Until He adapts, Fes should get at least 15-18 minutes a game.

I really liked the defensive play by Fes tonight. He was making everyone on the heat team adjust, or just plain miss. My favorite was when he busted his but down the court when Williams fouled James at the foul line. Big Fes can move.
who would have thought that Fes would play all of the fourth and into overtime if my memory is correct. And on top of that, he didnt look winded.
If things continue like this you could see Jefferson come off the bench. Not a bad move really, then you have a true center start and an inside scorer on the second unit.

WTF? Fesenko, seriously? How many fouls per minute played again? He put up like 2 in 3:17 the other day. You all seriously want a guy putting you in foul trouble for the entire quarter in like 4 minutes getting "15-18"? Get a grip.
MIllsap hit 46 tonight. Who do you play? Some players play better against better sets. It was Sap's night. Bench big Al and give him time.
WHERE THAT METER AT?

I share these thoughts. Jefferson can be Millsap last year, and we can start with Fesenko Okur, and switch to Jeff if necessary.
Dude you seriously did NOT watch the game. Everyone that did knows you don't have the slightest freakin clue what you are talking about. Fes was called on to foul because D-Will couldn't and Fes did it quickly and efficiently without much time coming off the clock. I don't think he could have done any better. Watch the game and then come back and post.

...Jefferson is fundamentally unsound. He's basically a 40 million dollar board crasher! And we've got him for 3 years! We never learn, do we???
