Big Al benched...

Come on, guys. Be real. Jefferson isn't and shouldn't come off the bench. Maybe if he puts stinkers up all the way to game 41, but I don't think that happens. Starting for him is going to be paramount for his confidence. He's a sensitive guy (right now), having him come off the bench might put the fire out, not light it under him.
 
Just maybe that hurt finger/hand he's had since the pre-season is starting to slow him down.
I'm not so keen on starting Fes, but he definitely needs more minutes. Gotta always worry about Fes and his silly fouls. Big Al does need to play to figure out our offense so it becomes instinctive, as a great deal of it is based on recognizing and reacting. Without playing, ya just can't learn it very well...
 
Should have been done a long time ago. Jefferson halts the offense once he catches the ball and can't even finish in the post like he could in Minnesota. He does not have good enough hands to be a pick and roll player. When his defender won't fall for his ball fakes, he just launches a low percentage "push shot" instead of passing. Like Harpring would say..."that's not Jazz basketball".

Whats wrong with Jefferson coming off the bench to provide some easy unassisted scoring when Deron is not in? Makes a whole lot of sense to me.
 
I didn't say he should be benched, just that Fes had a great game and even had great fouls. Jefferson better start earning his keep more consistently though.
 
Interesting that Fes has been the one in the game when we made the comeback against Portland last year and then Miami this year. He is great to change things up defensively and disrupt the other teams flow.

Oh and MILSAP IS THE MAN
 
Jefferson isnt going to be benched.

Sloan just went with what was working, which, if any of you ever paid attention to more than just the score, he always does when we make a comeback.
 
Is it to late to sign FES to a huge extention so portland doesn't come in next summer and run the price through the roof?
 
He did suck tonight for sure, but I till have the feeling he'll get it together. Tomorrow is a great way to start that.
 
Gawd, what a bunch of f'in retards. Jefferson, really?!? Tonight's loss rests solely in the lap of one C.J. "Chucker" Miles. In the last few minutes of the game how many poorly shot threes and out of control drives to the hoop did this clown take?

Put Al back in the game and swap Miles for Bell and we win this debacle. I for the life of me cannot understand why Sloan continues to use Miles at the end of the game. He is killing us!!!

Jazz once again crushed in the first quarter 25-13. Big Al once again team worse -10 on the night (CJ +13................). This was before our 3 million dollar backup SF even saw a minute of action. Now who is to blame again?

You do realize the Jazz won, right?
